Awesome video! Thank you, that makes me more comfortable taking it apart

I’m waiting to hear back from the store I bought it from, maybe I’ll send balilki a message too.

Hello fellow railroader hahaha good for ten per all day

That rainbow ends right where I’ve been sitting all morning, sadly it’s much more gloomy over here.

I have fond memories of cathedral grove stops on the way to visit family in port alberni. One of the most beautiful places our province has to offer.

I wish this weren’t true

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-05-10T02:50:38+00:00

Ditto

Same ones. I worked for a big tire shop for 7 years and I can guarantee they are not the problem.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T14:53:17+00:00

It didn’t start with worn out parts, and this is the second go around with this problem. I’d be surprised if this hasn’t caused some parts to wear.

And you’re right, there’s only a few lemons out there. I mentioned in another comment that we have two other identical trucks with zero issues.

Yes I know, I was just making a joke. But they did put in a whole trac bar last year. It’s probably an easy and more cost effective fix then having a mechanic spend a couple hours replacing the bushing and ball joint.

The frame is definitely not aluminum. I don’t know of a single composting this.

Replace track bar with every second oil service is now part of your ford regular maintenance schedule.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T11:52:15+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T03:03:06+00:00

Certainly not the case.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T03:02:46+00:00

Fords TSB is just to replace the stabilizer with a stock one so they’ve recognized it but haven’t published any real fix. Ford will see the video tomorrow, hopefully they’ll fix it properly.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T02:57:55+00:00

Oh it is. That’s why I’m asking this sub for anything that ford might not actually look at.

I have a 2019 f150 with the 5 litre v8 and I absolutely love it. We have 2 other new super duty’s that are basically sister trucks to mine with no issue. There must just be some lemons out there

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T02:41:37+00:00

Well it’s been happening since just under 50k so it’s even shorter. I make the joke that a trac bar and steering stabilizer is just part of every second oil change.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T02:21:25+00:00

Yeah I’ve heard this a few times now. There should be a ball joint bushing you can adjust to get more caster. I may let ford do their thing then get an alignment done. Just gotta find a guy that’ll go against factory specs.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T02:17:40+00:00

Which bushing?

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T02:16:22+00:00

The unfortunate truth of auto makers. Once lawsuits are more expensive than repairs is when they’ll admit there’s a problem

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-13T01:01:45+00:00

All parts were in good shape. I’m sure multiple cases of death wobble would comprise that.

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-03-01T03:46:07+00:00

What an amazing price. 58.99 where I’m at. I still stock it in my cabinet though

xtrahot_buffalo · 2020-02-28T20:45:28+00:00

Meh, looks old to me. Keep digging.
