In the past 2 weeks . Power window went out , rearend went out , master cyl , slave cyl and numerous vac leaks

 

the power window part is normal mine don't work right now either. But as to the rest sounds like you been beating on her pretty hard

 

Happens to everyone. Was on the way to the coast a couple of weeks ago, on a Friday. Truck through a engine light. Stopped at dealer in Raliegh, 7.5 hours and 500 bucks poorer left with a new thermostat, and CHT sensor. On the way home Sunday night, 3 hours from home, truck starts mising, engine light on. End up leaving it at same dealer, didn't want to risk another 2 hours to get home. Three bad coils. Hard decision on keeping selling, ended up keeping. Its a 9 year lod truck, things are going to go wrong. Just need to decide if it is severe enough to sell/ trade for a newer one with the associated paments. I bought my Expd in fall of 08, for 6 and chnge cash, figure I can afford to spend some cash on it. Beats a payment any day.

 

Sucks your having issues. It always seems to come in waves.

 

Yeah funny how that works. I guess the most ya can do is keep up with your preventive maintenance take good care of your truck and hope for the most

 

The maintenance has been keep up like a charm , the truck is just old with 225,000 miles . It has a parts list as long as my arm of stuff it needs to be perfect . For every one thing I fix or replace 3 go bad . Not beating her too bad , just drive alot of miles . Haul some hay every now and then and that is about it . I haven't in spun a tire with her except on the ice last month .

 

it its mechanical its going to fail sometime. nothing lasts forever

 

man that sucks but gonna have to say man. When it rains it pours. all my ingnition stuff went out on me about the same time. then had to change plugs 2 more times after that bc frist i got bocsh. they missed then i ran autolites they missed. finaly Jbrew slaped me and ive been runnin motorcrafts for 40K no probs. thats the biggest wave ive ever had.
yours sound rough. but yeah nothing last for ever......

im sure at sometime a 300 I6 4.9 will break....just hasnt happend yet hahaha

 

if those were all stock parts on 225k miles.. geezz id be greatfull they lasted that long..

 

Not all stock , alomst all new stuff replaced less than 20,000 miles ago . It had new rear end , new tranny , clutch , complete brake setup and much more .

 

Power Windows always go out. Just take a day take off your upper intake and fix the vacuum leaks, I hear the slave is pita to change...
