I rode around on the old ones for awhile after they were flattened, just didn't realize they had gotten that bad.
I assume the wheels will be centered more as the springs settle and they drop a little, currently they are ~1" off, with the wheel being towards the rear of the vehicle. I couldn't...
I am alive after being sick for over a week, yay!
I did measure, and my measurements were right around 28.875", and I believe they're oriented correctly. Thank you for providing those measurements to compare to, I appreciate you and your time!
Today I took it back to the dealer to speak with...
The rear tire is definitely not centered, but I'm not sure if it ever was, I never measured it. Is it supposed to be centered?
Thanks to getting covid this weekend I won't be able to take it into the shop for my appt today :(
I also noticed the orientation of the drop shackles seems to be...
You likely have dirt and grime between these pads between your leaf springs: https://atqauto.com/2015-2020-ford-f150-leaf-spring-outer-isolator-bushings/
Pressure washing them works, but they may also be worn out. Mine were pretty worn down on one edge. Some have suggested using this dry lube...
Will do, and ill post some additional pictures later.
Any idea what the unladen clearance is from top of tire to top of wheel well opening? I'd like to measure mine and compare to the normal measurement.
Thank you so much for responding, I appreciate you, your time, and your knowledge!
I kind of figured the procedure didn't have anything to do with the driveline. Do you know how long the WSM quotes for this job to take? They had the truck for 3 days, and the parts were there before I dropped it...
I had my leaf springs replaced by the dealer under warranty for excessive noise (they offered it when i asked if they'd cover the cost of new silencer cushions). It took them 3 days to do the work, and when I got it home I found all of this :D
Any insight into how this would have...
Yes, I got my issue resolved. Fuse 14 was not fully seated in its slot. After that was pushed in all the way I haven't had an issue since. My user manual lists fuse 14 as not used, but it certainly is :)
I could not tell you why they're trying to compare it to a like unit to diagnose a possible mechanical/electrical issue. I asked if it's customary to try and diagnose a mechanical/electrical issue by comparing it to another like unit, and was told "sometimes". Talk about cutting edge diagnostic...
Is there anything I can suggest they check first to expedite the process? They still haven't even had time to look at my truck after 3 days. Is it not possible to take my vehicle after I've checked in with the SA while I wait for my turn in line to have a tech look at it?
My SA advisor told me...
Tried calling, got the runaround there as well. I was told that they'd reimburse me after the repairs were made. I have absolutely no faith in that. Is that the same shit you were told?
Just installing lights and a compressor to the upfitter switches. All wiring was done with deutsch connectors and are water tight.
I did the same thing. One interesting thing to note, when attaching a scanner to the truck, it would not find the VDM module. Physically located the module...
I've spent a lot of time browsing this forum since buying my truck in May of 2020, and I finally have a reason to call upon the collective wisdom of all the great members!
Truck has 13,700 miles, bought it brand new, have had a few other minor issues that all got cleared up. Yesterday, I was...
Been lurking here for awhile, thought I'd finally make a post!
These are my personal plates, still haven't arrived yet due to delays related to COVID ^_^.
In Idaho, you have to provide an explanation for whatever you're putting on custom plates. I recently graduated as a mechanical engineer...
