DieselSite's boots are designed to replace leaking and deteriorated sets on the 7.3L Ford PSD light-duty diesels.
These are made of a more durable material than OEM and provide a stronger hold for trucks, making higher boost numbers. Higher boost levels in the 7.3 can stretch the limits of a saturated set of factory boots, risking them blowing out or blowing off. In some cases, even stock or underpowered vehicles may experience boots that slip and lose grip if they've lost integrity and are saturated with oil.
THIS KIT INCLUDES:
The two boots that connect the intercooler to the intercooler piping and clamps are available for both stock and aftermarket setups that have swapped to the 6.0L intercooler.
Choose from the following setups:
• 1999-2003 with a stock 7.3L Intercooler
(2) Intercooler Boots measuring 3"/3.25" (tapered) Inner Diameter
(4) T-Bolt Style Clamps
• 1999-2003 with a SWAPPED 6.0L INTERCOOLER
(1) Intercooler Boot measuring 3" Inner Diameter
(1) Intercooler Boot measuring 3"/3.25" (tapered) Inner Diameter
(4) T-Bolt Style Clamps
Torque spec is 60 in/lbs - DO NOT EXCEED!
Stock boot material is silicone; however, this type of material is NOT oil compatible. This material will break down over time in these applications, as the PSD incorporates a closed crankcase vent system. This means oil travels through the intake and comes in constant contact with the boots, causing deterioration and leaks due to the incompatibility of the silicone boots and the oil from your crankcase. If you have seen an oil mist all over the valley of your PSD and wondered where it was coming from, chances are it was caused by leaking and/or deteriorated stock boots. The stock boots will leak air and oil, causing a 3-4 PSI loss in boost.
HOW ARE DIESELSITE BOOTS MADE?
This is a DIESELSITE original product and has been treated with the highest quality. We ordered sample upon sample of hose material and clamps until we were satisfied with the quality of the parts and certain of their integrity in our application. These boots are made of a hose that is reinforced with a 5-ply braided synthetic fabric, which will not kink or collapse. The special synthetic rubber is exceptionally resistant to heat, ozone, gasoline, gasohol, methanol, ethanol, and diesel fuel, and can withstand the engine heat and up to 100 psi boost pressure. With care, this is a virtually indestructible boot material. These boots are lined with Fluorolastomer, a synthetic, rubber-like material used in gaskets and O-rings to handle heat and oil. Their unique properties make these products ideal for high-performance aerospace and automotive applications in extremely harsh and challenging environments.
