    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    It looks badass. Honestly mine will be a pavement princess for the most part and I’m looking for one that is stock.

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    I’m leaning towards passing on this particular one but I’ll keep looking for one that wasn’t beat on as much. The pics make it look clean, and it is for the most part but there are several things that bug me about it. The paint is in terrible shape. It just doesn’t show up in pics. I’d be...

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    I’m stressing trying to decide. It will be my only vehicle and I drive about 12k miles a year. If I keep my 19 I’ll get the ford esp power train warranty. Gen 1, do $1k in maintenance and hope I don’t have major issues. Either one I want to keep for years

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    Are the nitto all terrains quieter than the BFGs? I can’t believe how much louder the tires sound in the 14 vs my 19

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    I have to take it back tomorrow so it’s decision time. Take the gen 1 and $26k or keep my 19. Few concerns about the gen 1. 1. The road noise from the factory BFG’s are pretty annoying. The gen 2 is so much quieter 2. The engine has this odd characteristic. It’s hard to explain but it...

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    It only does it when close to full till. I have a good local veteran mechanic shop doing a pre purchase inspection now. Think it’s worth the $125

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    Thanks man. The road noise is definitely more pronounced than my 19 but it’s not bad. The shocks feel fine to me. Not bouncy at all. Looking at the minimal wear on the brake pedal I think most of the miles on this one are highway.

    PLEASE HELP - Looking at a gen 1

    I’ve been looking for a gen 1 for over a year. Ended up buying a 19. Now I’ve got a 14 in my garage for a couple days. Dealer a couple hours away here in TX is letting me test it out with no commitment. Offered me $61k for my 802a. They’re asking $35,500 for the 14 with 123,000 miles...

    Factory Live Valve Too Stiff?

    I haven’t but I’ll ask my dealer. Mine was built 7/19 though. Part of me wants to switch to the 17-18 suspension.

    Factory Live Valve Too Stiff?

    I’ve got a stock 19 that feels stiff on rough roads. I’ve lowered the tire pressure and it makes a little difference but I’m still not happy with it. Is there a way to program the valves to stay in the softest setting for daily driving?

    Motor oil on top of intake manifold

    It’s most likely coming from the PCV line to your intake. A catch can will capture it and send clear air to your intake. Just YouTube catch can or oil air separator. It’s nothing to be alarmed about. All engines have some oil mist from the crank case. If you’re going to keep the truck a...

    Motor oil on top of intake manifold

    Get a catch can. I run a JLT like many other than n the forum. They work well, really easy to find install and are affordable.

    Soften 2019 and up suspension?

    I’m going to try lowering the psi to 36/34 and see if that helps. I’ll report back after I do.

    I have them at the recommended 38

    Soften 2019 and up suspension?

    Thanks! I looked into it but my truck was built 7/19. I’ll probably still check with my dealership and see if there is a solution. I’ve noticed my truck has developed a couple minor rattles because of this. And when my truck got almost sideways going 25 mph down a gravel road driving...
