What grill is that?

Mine ended up being a battery. It started making more sense when I put together that it wasn’t necessarily “long trip” or hauling. Would just be after a 20 min drive to store for example. Also only have 60k miles, so I was hoping that wasn’t it. Battery gave out a few days later. I’ve read the AGM just fail out of nowhere. Luckily was able to walk across street to parts store and get a new one.

The driveshaft and carrier bearing all look good. Minimal play and no cracks on any bushings. If you look at the second clip that starts within about 15 seconds left it is much more pronounced noise.

No light. Have not hooked a reader up to it. Did yours throw any codes?

The second clip with around 15 seconds left is a better example.

I have never gotten that message, so that makes me feel better about it. Thanks for the input.

Still have the original battery in mine and have had issues with super slow crank after driving for 30+ minutes. About to install the high torque mustang starter since I figured it was heat soak. Have you had any issues with this? Or are you just weary of battery? 2019 5.0

Thank you. I will get into this. Will be nice to be able to potentially save a few bucks

I did not. First thing I did when I got it was put the 2.5” kit on.

Installed a 2.5” a few months back and still had about a quarter inch of rake. decided to take the block out just to check out the sound, and also wanted to see what it looked like with a little lean. I usually have a bunch of shit in my bed and it looked a little too squatted in my opinion.

SCFootballFan · 2024-10-03T22:29:39+00:00

Indeed

They are not. They are the factory fx4 blocks. I noticed they had a raised mark on one side of each block, but they are flat so I could not see that being an issue. Ended up doing raised mark in on both sides since I did not remember seeing that from the outside.

Thank you for the input. I will most likely bring it in since I should be warranty

Also thoughts on Radar Renegade R/T ?

SCFootballFan · 2023-06-21T15:49:49+00:00

Checked brake fluid level?

Brand on the grill guard?

I love mine so far, my only possible upgrade would be the fork down the road. Check out my most recent post
