OK, good to know, I'll see if that is an option. My pump is actually whining quite a bit. The current theory is that the rack was leaking, it got low and the pump got some air in the system. The shop can't tell if the pump is good or not until the rack gets replaced so starting with that and...

My steering rack is leaking and my shop is suggesting replacing it. It sounds like this is no longer available from Ford and reman is the only option. Is there a consensus on the best reman to go with? Anything else that should be done at the same time?

Stock exhaust

Thanks guys, I’m gonna take it back in and have them reroute it underneath. It also looks like the passenger side leaf springs is rubbing on the exhaust. Is that typical with Deavers?

Recently got my Deaver springs installed by my local shop. I noticed this while parked slightly off camber The bump stop is contacting the e brake cable. Should this be routed differently? Possibly under the springs?

The replacement parts aren't that terribly expensive but I'm not sure how much labor that will be for the shop to press out the old ones and install the new ones, I'm thinking it might not be cheap.

I called Camburg and you guys aren't wrong. It doesn't sound like the uniballs love being in the snow or harsh conditions although even in good conditions they sound kind of high maintenance, according to what they said.

The Icons that my shop was trying to talk me into don’t actually fit raptors, they are for all the other f150s. I went with Camburg. Seemed like a good middle of the road upgrade that won’t require me to ditch my factory wheels (yet).

Their UCAs look really nice but it's not quite in the budget and it would require me having 0 offset wheels which I'm planning on eventually but will be a bit down the road. I'm kind of leaning towards those camburg 1.25 tubulars at the moment.

Those look nice. They look real similar to the Icon tubular ones that my shop offered as an alternative to the more expensive billet options.

I did see those but wasn’t sure about buying something non OEM.

Which of those is OEM? I don’t see any Motorcraft options for SVT.

My UCAs are shot and it's time for a replacement. My shop is telling me that they can't get the OEM parts, I've got some calls into online parts places and am waiting on calls back. I can't tell if these are available online or not. My shop is also suggesting that if I plan to run 37s (I do)...

I shopped around a bit and Varsity had the cheapest price shipped by quite a bit.

Looks like Rock Auto is out of stock on these, anywhere else that people order from with good prices and fast shipping? My local Ford dealer is terrible and I've got no interesting in using them.
