so when it rains it pours.
so when it rains it pours.
well these past few weeks have been hell for my truck and me.
First issue:
Destroyed another drive shaft thanks to axle wrap. Had to drive 4 hours each way to get a replacement and not have to pay the Crazy price that the ford dealership wanted even with Ford Employe discount they still wanted $1,100 for a new one. So $80 for a used one then $25 for 2 new U-Joints.
I REALLY NEED TRACTION BARS. Any Ideas? i thought about just making them, but was looking at mounting options or if i could buy a set new or used for less than $200 for the set.
Second Issue:
Had a small misfire, thought it was just from water splashing from the underbody and just falling on the plug. Turns out Seal was bad and i have been leaking fluid.
Third Issue:
Started noticing a loud ticking sound coming from under the hood, thought it might have been just an exhaust leak, cause it sounded low on the block. Turns out the exhaust valve followers are bent or warped on cylinders 6,7, and 8.
So this all has put wheels and tires on hold for now. But my wheels should be here and on my truck by the end of January.
On a positive note, im selling all of my KCs and getting (2) 20" Light bars, (1) 50" Light bar, and (4) D2s
