1999 F350 4WD FRT SUSPENSION ISSUES
I didn't lift my truck, it was like that upon purchase. I'm thinking this guy went cheap because when I bought it she had 37's and after I drove it for a while I noticed plugs in the tires and they were worn down pretty far, so that was $2,000 to replace (new wheels and tires). Anyway, after...- Jer's 99

1999 F350 4WD FRT SUSPENSION ISSUES
When I bought my truck (about 3 months ago) it had steering problems, but I figured an alignment and it would be alright; NOT THE CASE HERE! I took it to get the alignment and the shop gives me an $810 estimate (including alignment-WOW). Their issue was, they were not going to align the truck...- Jer's 99

99 F350 questions...
The dealership (a small one) said it had a chip, but I doubt it because they had to replace the motor at the trucks 131K mark with an 80K mile motor, which I'm cool with, but why also add a performance chip to it??? Scarlet_Nape. Is there aspecific spot to install that drain valve? Sorry I...- Jer's 99

I have an F350 and do not know too much about diesels! No I changed out my fuel filter, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, but my Ram buddy was telling me about a switch or port or something that I may be able to purge allowing the collection of water to get emptied.... anything...- Jer's 99

Hello everyone - I am the F.N.G.
The dealership I purchased this truck from gave me the paperwork indicating the engine swap... Now the oil they put in the engine is Rotella 15W40 and they claimed that Rotella was the best oil too. Another thing is, how are you all changing your oil? Does everyone take it somewhere, or does...- Jer's 99
