    Rim & Tire size question ???

    I have a 1999 with the stock rims and also have 35" tall tires about 12" wide and I rub my leaf springs every time I turn in or out of driveways and parking spots. If I bought new wheels I would find some that pushed the tires out an Inch or so. Just my 2 cents...

    Mud Tire Recommendations?

    i have mastercraft courser C/T... I would consider them a mix between a mud and all terrain tire. Ive been in the mud a few times with them and the only time I got stuck was when the mud was too deep for 35" tires. They clean out good enough to keep you from just spinning, but there also...

    hissing sound

    I had that same problem... The tube was rusted completly through, so I replaced it and the sensor, Mine still does it almost all the time when its cold. I ended up just disconnecting the sensor during the winter months and I now have no problems. I tried to buy some kind of "sensor delete"...

    Fogging mirrors

    during the colder months I keep a blow-torch in the back seat of my truck, it works real well for heating up the mirrors and anything else that is frozen. you have to be careful not to melt things but it is way easier than running wires.

    Regearing/mpg after lift?

    I have 35's and didn't really notice any performance difference. I will say that 35's aren't enough (for me anyway), I will be going to a 6" lift with 37-38's next time. I get a little upset when I see a 1/2 driving around that that is the same size as a 3/4 ton. back to the gears... I am...

    Gremlins in my F350

    After reading his problemes I guess my cruise light doesn't come on either, I just figured that there wasn't one. Should it come on when you first turn the key on before starting? as for the door locks thats common, my truck did that on both sides, and my dads 150 does it on the pass side...

    Front Suspension "Thumping Noise" when offroad

    Mine made this same noise, and after putting brand new tires on it I noticed that they were starting to wear funny. I had new ball joints put in and most of my noises are gone, and my tires are looking 100% better.

    Two new problems A/C Vents and Locks

    The door locks are an easy fix... Kinda. My truck did the same thing and so did a couple of f-150's that I've seen. The selenoids on the locks are worn out. only takes about 45 minutes a side to replace. I bought the parts directly from ford want to say around $75 a side but cant swear to...

    Tired of LOUD "engine" Noise!

    Tired of LOUD "engine" Noise!

    I Bought my truck about 2 years ago. I noticed the truck had a loud engine noise when I bought it, but wasn't too worried about it. But it seems more and more people (mostly mechanics) are telling me that it sounds bad. It is extreamly loud at idle (nocking or clanking) and seems to quite down...

    No more trans fluid...

    well, I found that the bumper doesn't protect these very well. Now I am in the process of replacing them. I bought the factory power steering oil cooler, but found an aftermarket trans cooler that is bigger and about 1/4 of the price so I got it. now just have to put it all togather in the...

    Recommendations for 8" lift on 99 PSD

    Keep in mind that there is about a 95% chance that your rear drive shaft wont cut it any more, and a 100% chance that your front wont work either. Those are things that will need serious mods. I looked into this real hard and found a place that will make the drive shafts work (or replace them...

    Going "Mod" crazy

    Fog Lights-These were a breese, mine was an early 1999 so there was no factory wiring harness, but I have heard some people say that their truck had it. (later models) As for a switch... I just bought a small toggle switch and wired it up with a relay through the parking lights so when ever...

    After market radios

    most pioneer tools are are about the same, if you know anyone with a pioneer head unit you could barrow theirs. Or you could run to walmart and buy a head unit use the tools then return it.

    Freight train

    I dont think mine sounds like a train, but its prolly the loudest 7.3 i've heard. Most people say that it sounds like a school bus (the chatter sound). Not sure why its soo loud, but I like it. Most people, even other powerstroke owners think that there is something wrong with it; but it runs...

    Missing Parts

    At least I can say the weather has been on my side. We had a steady rain for about 3 weeks here, and ever since I started working on my truck we have had less than 5 min. of rain. So I have been able to ride my motorcycle everywhere. I never thought I would get tired of riding but Im...
