    Front brake imbalance

    I had a problem with my lines that I couldn't get them properly bled and the back rotor was all sorts of warped. Turns out it was a brake line that had been installed backwards putting too much strain and causing a minor defect. Once I replaced the line and the rotor it's been great.

    PSA: Avoid Eaton/Detroit differentials

    In an update to the Eaton/Detroit Trutrac(tm) that I put in the rear of my 1998 Expy. I just got the truck back from the shop after having to put $2600 into another axle. The gears are a hair out of spec and the torque from spinning an axle/tire for 15k miles took its toll. There is only a...

    Help! Clunking/jerk when accelerating?

    I had a problem with shuddering when accelerating, especially when turning. It turned out for me it was the clutch packs in the rear axle.

    Driver seat and pedals won’t move

    I didn't realize adjustable pedals were an option. I've got a setup from an excursion I was going to put in an F250. Wonder how similar they are.. I can check my shop manual for troubleshooting options if you need.

    Knocking noise 2001 EB 5.4

    Both my manifolds ended up cracking and then finally broke apart. Once they were replaced the noise and ticking (valve noise I believe) went away or at least was silenced.

    Suspension Rebuild

    I had the Bilstein 5100s on my F250 and I hate them as well. I ended up putting a set of Zone Offroad shocks on it and I liked them a whole lot better. http://zoneoffroad.com/product-shocks?ma=7&mo=134&ye=1998 . These are the ones for our truck.

    New Headlights!

    I know it was a law (or still is) in IL that you can't run with more than 4 forward facing lights on at one time on the road as well.

    Need help with tires sizes R20

    I'm a big fan of Nitto Tires myself. If you're mostly dry pavement and some off-road their TerraGrappler would be a good fit, If you see sand and deserts they have a DuneGrappler but its wet performance is mediocre. It also comes down to if you like the look of the vehicle and if fuel prices...

    Lean mixture fault

    I was getting lean codes due to header exhaust leaks. They were cracked and after I replaced them never had the issue again.
