    Do an oil pressure test before you replace anything. If it’s within spec repair it. I did the phasers rockers lifters full timing kit...

    Fan Clutch issue

    Get one off rock auto. Not too bad to replace. Prob just worn out. Or leaking oil. Doesn’t take much for them to not work correctly

    Alternator output voltage

    400$ for a battery. No thanks. It’s 140 (220 retail or so) my cost for a tested 1100CA mtpHD-65 interstate. That will last 6-7 years. I’ve never even herd of a north star. And a warranty coverage at most any repair shop with interstate.

    I would like to know ...

    Mine last time I checked was around 14.3-.5. Load depending. I upgraded to the higher stock alternator from rockauto. When the original one went out. So 130amps.

    4x4 lowering

    300 doesn’t sound good for a coil over kit. Sounds too cheep to me. Lift blocks are different. That’s what I did. 3” front 2.5” back. Sits perfect with the 33” tires.

    Tires - Any Experience With BFG Trail Terrain?

    Just put them on mine. So far so good about 500 miles. I took off the 275-60r20. And went back to stock. With the 3.31 ratios it didn’t work out was only getting 17 on highway. Back up to 19-20.

    Don’t use Moog ball joints. Non stop replacing them. Use motorcraft. I get mine from rock auto.

    Blew a hole through my block, Whats next?

    I’d drop in a used engine. Same thing. Don’t complicate things. There’s plenty of low mileage ones out there.
