    Best option for steering rack replacement?

    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...

    Best option for steering rack replacement?

    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?

    E brake routing with Deavers

    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?

    E brake routing 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?

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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.

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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.

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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).

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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.

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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.

    Time for UCAs. Keep it stock or upgrade to aftermarket?

    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.

    New Fox 2.5s and Geiser springs on the way. Anything else I need or should be ordering?

    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.

    New Fox 2.5s and Geiser springs on the way. Anything else I need or should be ordering?

    Hopefully I’ll have some real world feedback in a week or 2. Shocks and springs are on there way. Ordering Deavers tomorrow but I think there is a bit of a weight for those.

    New Fox 2.5s and Geiser springs on the way. Anything else I need or should be ordering?

    Can’t fit 37s without fenders? That doesn’t seem right. Geiser says on their site that with their springs and mid perch it clears 37s. But now I’m a little unsure about going mid if that’s going to cause issues for the shocks? Also I’ve been told the BFGs run small, not a true 37? edit: I...

    New Fox 2.5s and Geiser springs on the way. Anything else I need or should be ordering?

    Appreciate the info. If I go low perch can I still clear 37" BFG K02s? When I called Deaver about the leaf springs (I've gotta order a custom pack because I'm running a GFC camper) they asked me if I want to add a 1" lift or not. Any consensus on this? I'm all for a little more clearance but...

    New Fox 2.5s and Geiser springs on the way. Anything else I need or should be ordering?

    I'm pretty sure my original shocks have the full 115k that the truck has on them for mileage (I'm the 3rd owner and previous guy wasn't sure). The fronts are leaking and it was time to freshen things up. I got 4 new 2.5s coming from Rock Auto and a set of Geiser springs on the way. I'll be...

    Leaky 3rd brake light fix?

    I've got some of that handy actually. When you use that, are you just doing it around the opening on the body where the light mounts to? Or are you applying the tape to the light somehow?

    Leaky 3rd brake light fix?

    I searched, read about 20 different threads on this and am still not quite sure what the correct fix is. Seems like some options are: new 3rd brake light from Ford although it sounds like the replacements still leak? pump a bunch of silicone around the brake light and re-install remove old...
