When I traded in the 05, I took them off and put the capped ones back on. I though I could use them on my 17, but the 17 has a different thread size and pitch.
I need to put them on the for sale thread and move them out.

The capped ones that the dealer sells are $6 each so that's $144 for a set of 24. These worked out pretty good.

Sorry about that. I was late to the party. The ones that I have were on the truck for about 6-9 months but look great.
Did the burning brakes go away after unplugging the ABS sensor?

Yea, I drove the truck for about 25 minutes and it acted normal. With the sensor unplugged I have the parking brake light, Brake light, ABS light, and traction control illuminated all while getting a flashing message in the center to check the brake system accompanied by beeping. Aside from that no burning or weird behavior.

Expy is going in Monday to Wednesday for body work so I won't be getting the wheel bearing done until after that. RockAuto says I won't have it until Wednesday anyway. Looked into ordering the other side from both Ford and RockAuto who had no more available. Ford said they are on back order so I must have gotten one of the last few in stock online. Luckily the body shop is a minute away. The truck will be sitting for the most part as the rear bearing is howling like crazy and it doesn't have much left in it lol. Wish RockAuto wasn't so slow with the shipping.

Yes Amazon has set the standard for online shipping speed and ruined it for any company that isn't as well organized.

I'm sure someone still has motorcraft left online somewhere and the dealers have to have stock. I don't have the expy back until Wednesday anyway so it's ok on the delay, usually rock auto is 2 days only on the shipping so it came as a surprise it was so long was all. They are cutting out and replacing my bubbling wheel opening so I'll have it when I get the truck back.

The chrome is good and heavy and they can go on and off a lot of times without rusting. I put a good coat of paste wax on them before installing I figured it would be easier that way.
