    Death Wobble

    Thanks for nothing guys. I am amazed at how little help I got from this board. Yea, I know it's not recommended but it was a necessary trip and I didn't have the money for any other option. One of the used tires that I bought blew out on the way back and it took out most of the rear fender...

    Death Wobble

    I am not sure if it's death wobble or shake, There's a difference? It starts to shudder about the time it shifts into high gear at 40mph and I can drive thru it but it's not fun. At 65 it cleans up and is buttery smooth at 70. With most all of the miles interstate, I only have to worry about...

    Death Wobble

    I have an 03 F-250 2wd with 115K on the clock. I am leaving for a 1500 mile trip Wednesday and I needed tires but I am broke so I bought some used tires. The old tires had the death wobble a little bit but not as bad as these. They are balanced and seem fine otherwise. I don't think the...

    Help Needed 265r75 or 235r85x16?

    It's 265/75 or 235/85 Sorry if I wasn't clear Whipit. I am trying to find out whether I am better off going with the 235/85 than the 265/75 that I am now running. If I ran offroad much I would obviously go with the 265/75's but I have no experience with the 235/85's and am trying to learn...

    Help Needed 265r75 or 235r85x16?

    I am replacing some Cooper 265/75's that have been disappointing. I don't go off road and am looking for a good road mileage tire. I planned to stay with the stock size but after doing some searching it seems I may be better off using a skinnier tire. Can someone who has changed froma 265/75...

    C-Betr mirrors review

    I bought some C-betr mirrors and put them on my towing mirrors. Why did I wait this long. I now have ZERO blind spots and doubt I will use the stock mirrors much any more. Installation was a breeze and I can still slide the mirrors in and out for the width load I am pulling. Installation...

    More Turbo Whine?

    Cold side pipe? Sorry for opening up a can of worms here but now I am intrigued. Wouldn't exposing the pipe to flowing air while the truck is moving lower the inside temp more than an insulated pipe? I would think the temp inside the pipe would be higher than ambient temperature and direct...

    More Turbo Whine?

    Cold side pipe? Is this the pipe against the firewall with the tinfoil looking stuff on it? Is there an easy way to remove the insulation? This sounds like a good rainy day project. I finally last weekend just cut the hole forward of my air intake and I swear my gas mileage has improved by...

    Help Needed Headlight alignment?

    Is there a correct way to align the headlights? I replaced my headlights, waited till dark and parked the truck facing a wall and just guessed at the alignment. I took it ofr a drive and changed the height a little but it just doesn't seem to be right. Is there a method I should be using to...

    Probably not going to turn it in to the insurance I think I am going to replace the grill, headlight, and mirror and beat out the dents as best I can myself. Can anyone recommend a good grill or headlights?

    Too funny Keano Yes there are some real doozies in South FL. My boat tips the scales at 11,700 without fuel. If I were towing it the story probably would of been different. I am going on a search for used parts now I guess. Any suggestions?

    Hi all. I had a horrendous event happen last night and now I need some parts and advice for my Super Duty. While towing a 8k pound boat down the FL turnpike last night a minivan decided to do a U turn in front of me. I managed to miss the idiot and not throw the boat off the trailer but I hit...
