    Steering feels like power steering is sticking

    Update..spraying white lithium grease on the steering shaft joints definitely helped. I think that's my problem. Should be ok for now but going to have to replace that steering shaft at some point. Anyone done this and how hard of a job? Part price doesn't look bad just wondering if I should do...

    Steering feels like power steering is sticking

    2014 with 150k I've noticed over the past week my steering feels like the power steering is starting to fail. The steering feels a bit sticky and doesn't return back to straight as easy. Fluid level is fine. No leaks. Temp here in ct has dropped into the 20s/30s this past week and admittedly I...

    Front Wiper Linkage replacement

    Replaced my linkage about a year ago. Wiper motor was fine and still is. Definitely watch some videos was a bit tricky getting the new linkage lined up and it's a tight squeeze getting it in and out. If your wiper motor is running fine I wouldn't touch it.

    Cat back upgrade?

    I have 2014 limited 5.4. 150k While doing an oil change today I noticed I'm getting close to muffler time. I'd like a little more muscle car sound...I had a 2000 expy with a gibson cat back that sounded great awhile back so im considering that but noticing the price on those are insane (like...

    Sway after leveling kit

    It ended up being the rear control arm not being tightened. I had a shop do the work (struts and spacers) they didn't tighten the control arm correctly. They fixed it no charge of course. Was weird because I crawled all over the suspension and didn't see or feel anything loose or out of place...

    Front wheel bearing time 2014

    130k haven't 100% diagnosed but has the typical groaning noise. It's going in for ac service next week so I was going to have it diagnosed properly while there. Just thinking ahead since I'd do the bearings myself. Would be nice if that's not problem

    Front wheel bearing time 2014

    It's time for new front wheel bearings. What's everyone using? I've always used Timken or Moog but damn the prices have spiked. Centric or Motorcraft any good? These trucks are heavy so I want good quality. Anyone have a lead to decent prices

    AC not working

    Ugh..getting warm here in CT finally and my AC isn't working at all. Compressor not kicking on, fuse is fine. Refrigerant was low and I had a can and added it. Still nothing. Anything else I should look for before making a appointment with my local shop? Hoping I'm overlooking something and...

    New wheel spacers installed!

    Drove it to work today and rides the same as it did without the spacers. I'm sure it puts a little more pressure on the wheel bearings but other than that no difference in ride quality. Even on the highway

    New wheel spacers installed!

    Picture doesn't do it justice but I'm pretty happy with the way it came out. Supreme suspension 2.5 lift with KYB struts with the stock springs. Cooper AT3s and now with Supreme Suspension 1.5 wheel spacers...puts my stock rims right where they should be. These trucks are beautiful stock but I...

    Anyone running wheel spacers? Pros/cons

    That looks great! I think that would look great on my truck. I'm going to look into the Supreme suspension ones since I'm happy with the leveling kit I have from them

    Anyone running wheel spacers? Pros/cons

    Thinking my truck might look nicer with my wheels spaced a little. I have a 2.5 leveling kit from supreme suspension that worked out well. Was thinking of possibly adding their wheel spacers. Any pros and cons? How hard are they on the wheel bearings?

    Passenger wiper not moving

    There is no need to remove the hood (at least on my 2014) remove the cowl cover then close the hood and there's nothing in the way. The thing is still a bit of a pain to get out and back in but the hood is no problem
