    My steering is all crazy.

    I'll start with the tires yeah I'll try changing up the tires first. I didn't have them rotated when the alignment was done because the dudes at les schwab told me if I moved the worn front tires to the rear they would just get "burned up" faster, and it is still an icy winter here so less...

    My steering is all crazy.

    It seems like my truck likes to wander. I bought it with the lift kit already on it so I don't know how the stock handling felt (I am thinking to go test drive some trucks to get a feel). It doesn't tend to one side or the other, it will wander left or right and if I am not constantly tending...

    My PSD still loves vegoil and B99

    Injectors? You guys ever have any problems with your injectors or fuel filters running bio. Ford has told me DO NOT RUN BIO, not even B05 or B20 and that it would cause all kinds of hell with my injectors. I was very dissapointed because my reason for buying my PSD was to run on and start...

    Better MPG in TOW/HAUL??

    :hail Thank you o wise bushpilot.:notworthy I was under the assumption I was getting better mileage in Tow/Haul because I make the same 40 mile trip weekly, every time before I leave I reset the avg mpg on my console. When Tow/Haul was on I would get 1-2 mpg better than with it off. After...

    Better MPG in TOW/HAUL??

    I am playing around with my new truck and still on it's first tank of gas? It seems like my gas mileage is slightly better when I have the TOW/HAUL option turned on. I thought this just changed the shift points but it seems like it is doing a bit more, maybe changing something in the fuel system...

    road trip to slc and back (houston)3k round trip

    Salt Lake City MPG Sorry I wasn't able to get you my avg mpg here before you left on your trip. I just got my truck back last night from the shop. So far my avg mpg is between 9 and 11 miles per gallon. I hope overall I am getting better than that but I really don't think so. Good luck on...

    WTF is w/ my truck. . .?

    Maybe just air. That could mean its just air in the fuel supply system. Which I don't think is a serious repair. I am hoping to get my truck back today after two weeks in the shop with the engine pulled. KEEP ON TRUCKIN' :thumbs

    oil storage

    I'll track it I'll try and keep track from Wednesday through to the weekend and let you know what I'm getting. My truck was showing 9.3mpg average on the console display when I got it. I think the previous owner had it chipped and did a lot of hot rodding and mudding. I am rediculously more...

    stupid question but i dont know the answer

    Thanks for the info Thanks for the correction and the link to the website. I hadn't been able to find them on the net. I am still learning about my own truck, alot had been done before I got it. I am the type that wants to know everything about every component on my rig. Thanks man.

    Coolant loss

    Probably known Yeah, I'd agree that this is probably a known problem. When they checked my truck's history they told me the head gaskets had blown at 16k and were replaced. They are still replacing them under warranty again at 39k, without protest at all. I am good to my trucks and pretty light...

    stupid question but i dont know the answer

    That is my truck in the picture you were asking about. The items you are asking about I believe are trac bars, like everyone has said. As far as I know they came as a part of the Skyjacker 8" set up to help keep the axles tracking up and down instead of skeewampus (thats a technical term). Here...

    temperatures in utah

    Chilly We have been having some pretty cold nights and early mornings but it doesn't seem to be getting any lower than the 30's. If you are working early in the morning or letting the truck sit out all night you might have a bit of a difficult start. But I am fairly new to diesels. We have been...

    Periodic heavy white smoke

    Exact same issues Bro Your F350's symptoms are identical to my 2004 F250. My truck is currently at the ford service department with the cab off getting new head gaskets and an EGR cooler. It is about a week long repair they tell me (with their schedule). I would be very careful if you are still...

    My Super Duty was DOA in SLC

    My truck is almost done Just spoke to Scott Cline at Champion Ford and my truck should be ready on Wednesday. Scott in the service department is wicked awsome and saved my ***** on the cost of this head gaskets situation.

    My Super Duty was DOA in SLC

    Thanks for the welcome I have no problem naming the dealership and the sales man. The dealership, Elite Auto Group, is in Carrollton Texas and the salesman's name is :guns: Jon Glaser. The original add for the truck claimed that the dealership "inspects all their vehicles" and that they are...

    My Super Duty was DOA in SLC

    I had my first super duty shipped from Texas to Utah because it was a great deal on just what I wanted. Truck that was claimed to be road ready, came off the carrier and went straight to the shop for at least a week. Oh well, more about that in my future posts. It's under warranty so not so...

    Coolant loss

    Hi guys, I'm new here. My rig was blowing out tons of white smoke at idle and when there was back pressure on the engine, but not when the turbo was kicking in. It smelled like burning coolant so I checked the level, and it was way low. After refilling coolant the problem got worse. I took it...
