    Source for sliding plastic part that the OEM roof rack cross bars attach to?

    2014 here. Anyone aware of a source for the black sliding plastic part that the OEM roof rack cross bars attach to? This part slides back and forth in the roof rack 'tracks' at either side of the roof so you can put your cross bars where you want them. I buggered one of them up.

    Adjustable ride height struts for 2014

    I have a 2014 (5.4L, 4WD) with just over 100k on it. Original struts. Recently, I put a CURT front hitch on it and have put a 300# motorcycle on a hitch carrier up there. More sag than I'd like. Would like to know what options I may have for load leveling, if any. Thanks.

    Strange noise...

    Whenever this rig (31K on it) is on anything but the smoothest of roads, there is a noticeable noise similar to feeling pressure waves in your ear. It is annoying and tiring. I started noticing this issue last spring, but almost didn't trust myself that it was real, but it's very consistent. At...

    Bought this rig July 2014 from local Ford dealership with just over 14k on it. A couple of months later (don't tow, don't own a trailer, always careful as can be with my rigs, very rarely loaded to any extent), I noticed what I thought was front disc warp and took it in for service and asked...

I haul 18'-22.5' sea kayaks...
