The tread on the front tires have low/high spots. I brought it to dealer today and the advisor said I need to rotate tires every 3000 miles. Can anyone confirm this? Also he said I should be running 70psi in my tires but the tires say 50psi???? They are pro comp mud tires 35x12.5x17. Could...
Ok something I noticed is the front tires (mud 35x12.5x17) hve very uneven wear on the tread. I have not rotated tires but with ony 12k mles could this have happened because I didn't rotate or did something cause them to wear like they did?

Thanks Boadie. I want to think your right cause thats what I thought. I did call Ford and talked to someone in service and they said the locks had to be on or 4WD will not work.:dunno I am gonna go try it to see. Not trying to doubt you but does anyone else reading this agree or not?:thanks
I just bought a new 06 F-250ps 4x4. My question is proper use of the 4 wheel drive. It has a manual transfer case. The question is on the front hub locks the proper use? Owners manual only says to make sure both wheels are in locked or free position before engaging into 4 wheel drive. I had...
