6.7l Alignment issues
I would have them inspect/replace the U-Joints in the front knuckles. What can happen is, a U-Joint can get stiff in 1 axis….. so as long at that isn’t the half of the cross that needs to rotate, then all is good. But as you are driving and things bounce around and the axle shafts move around...- snicklas

2021 F350 STX Mirror Upgrade
I don’t have one of these trucks, but if they don’t just work on install, it should be able to be activated in the LCM/BCM by the dealer or a good scan tool. Going back a ways, I had an 98 Sable Wagon that I accidentally broke th drivers mirror off the car. I replaced it with one out of...- snicklas

Red 90 diesel?
That’s much better than in Indiana. It is 10,000 tax evasion fine. I can buy a lot of on road diesel for 10 grand….. it’s not worth the risk… not to me at least…- snicklas

How to Leave engine running with locked doors?
That must be a pollution thing now. I’ve not heard of that. I know on my older trucks 03 Excursion Diesel and 11 F-150 EcoBoost, they will idle as long as the key is in the run position. I know they will run for hours.- snicklas

How to Leave engine running with locked doors?
So even with the keys in it, on the run position, it will only idle for 30 minutes?- snicklas

How to Leave engine running with locked doors?
If you have a keypad, you can lock them from the outside with that pad. Not sure on other models, but my 03 Excursion, you hit the last 2 buttons at the same time 7|8 and 9|0 (4 highest numbers) at the same time and it will lock all the doors from the outside. Also, when you unlock them with...- snicklas

How to Leave engine running with locked doors?
Do you have keyless entry? (The number pad on the door?) My 03 Excursion has it, and you can hit the correct key combo and lock the truck from that keypad (and obviously, unlock it). If I hit the switch on the door with the keys in it, it will unlock (Ford has been doing that since the 90’s)...- snicklas

04 f350 tow mirror replacement.
I know on some of the E-Series Class C Campers, they have a mirror with a really long arm..... like 12-18 inches out from the door.... should be a similar bolt on mounting. I've never tried it.... but I think I have seen most E and F series mirrors cross....- snicklas

Now we want to order..........
Honestly, I would just go to www.ford.com. Go to the Trucks & Vans selection at the top. From there you can pick which vehicle you are interested in, in this case the SuperDuty, and click on it. You can then Build & Price from there. You can build the truck the way you want it... start with...- snicklas

Brake problems
Mine wasn’t the caliper. My caliper pistons moved fine. My was the 2 pins the caliper bolts to and allows the caliper to slide.... Mine wouldn’t slide, so it didn’t “squeeze” the rotor, the pad the pistons push would push on the rotor, but the opposite side pad didn’t do anything.. There...- snicklas

Brake problems
Also check to see the pins in the caliper bracket are free and moving. My 03 Excursion would pull to the right on braking. I checked everything over on the right side and everything was fine. Checked the left side and the pins in the caliper bracket were frozen. The reason it was pulling to...- snicklas

Oil Pressure fluctuating and power dropping
Yes, use only Mortorcraft/Racor/IH oil and fuel filters on the PSD’s, especially the 6.0. I know the 6.0 filters were patented, so the aftermarket either had to pay to make the correct, or they made one that is 99% correct. In the 6.0 that 1% is what gets you.... For me, the extra couple...- snicklas
