    235/85 R16 Tires

    Right, BUT you can't put a 16" wheel where a 17" wheel came factory. It won't fit. A 18" wheel will replace a 17" wheel. I sell them for a living so I know. There are also some backspacing differences that the Ford parts catalog does not mention.

    235/85 R16 Tires

    The reason that Ford changed the size wheels is so they could install larger brakes in order to raise the GVWR. Competition and customer demand was the factor for the change.

    LOOKIN' GOOD!

    It will have to grow on me. The 1997-2003 F150 never did. I hope this truck does. When Ford introduced the 99 SD it was awesome out of the box.

    filler neck replacments?

    A marine supply house should have a hose. The filler hoses on boats are similar. You will need to measure the ID of your old hose.

    Slotted Rotors..........

    Stock rotors and stock pads. I have 175k miles on my original rotors. They have never been turned. I tow/haul heavy pretty regular. Motorcraft pads usually last around 60k miles in the front. 70-80k on the rear. :cool:

    Ford Parts on Ebay

    Granted there is a good profit margin BUT the competitive market usually keeps it in check. I sell Ford parts. On some parts we do have a 60-80% margin however we usually only make a overall average of about 28% between retail, wholesale, warranty, and internal business. Quite a large amount of...
