  1. Noisy dash

    It's not a buzzing sound, it's more like a rhythmic chomping or clucking sound.
  2. Noisy dash

    What is the clunking noise behind the right side of my dash? I only hear it with the motor off, my girlfriend thought it was a large animal chumping on something, but I know that's not the cas.
  3. Factory Trailer Sway control

    This is just what I was describing in my earlier post about windy day towing. Turned it off this weekend, and didn't notice the problem, but it wasn't windy.
  4. Collision avoidance saved my arse today !!

    My XLT will lock the brakes sometimes when someone 100 yards in front of me makes a turn.
  5. Factory Trailer Sway control

    Does this actually do anything, if you are using an aftermarket brake controller ie Curt Echo?
  6. Removing tailgate letters

    Today might be good, 95°
  7. Removing tailgate letters

    My Amazon tailgate letters have faded from red to pink/white after 18 months. What is the easiest, safest method to remove these so I can install a better set, probably Ford brand?
  8. Windy day towing

    So I am starting to think I have a hitch problem or something . Added Sumo springs, reset the wdh, and pumped tires to 40. Tows fine at 60, anything over that and it sways terribly. Looking at the bars when I got here, I only have about a 1/4" of shiny area on each bar, so am not getting...
  9. Best 20 minute upgrade? Sumo Springs

    Just finished installing my Blue Sumos. I picked the rear of the truck up with the camper jack (wish I had thought about that when I did the Bilsteins). Interestingly, with only the 1/4" spacer, I have 1 inch of clearance on the right, and none on the left.
  10. Best 20 minute upgrade? Sumo Springs

    When heating the bolt, are you heating the head? Or trying to get the torch into the frame, to heat the loctite?

    Dry weight sticker says 3410
  12. Windy day towing

    This is dropping the head 1 bolt hole on shank. My empty measurement on front fender was 35.25. No bars is 36, with bars 35.5. That comparable to what the measurements were before. Do I need to take more weight off the steer?I don't have my solo stove or 39 lb grill in the truck bed.
  13. Windy day towing

    In February, we took a trip to New Bern, u took the spare and rack off the back, and put the spare in the bed. Half down I had to put the spare inside the rear of the camper, it felt like the truck was bottoming out. Bought a Sherline, and it showed 650 TW . So I put it back the way it was, and...
  14. Windy day towing

    That makes sense, I probably didn't have 100 lbs in the bed of the truck.
  15. Windy day towing

    Yeah I know but it's the only one I have on my phone, I drive a tractor trailer and am on the road. Been thinking about it some more, and it seemed like when the truck would jerk, it was more like coming from the front end, instead of how a passing truck would pull you towards it. Is this a...

  17. Windy day towing

    I have a 6 hole I believe, I have it in the 2nd from bottom. 1 time I stop it seems nose high, the next a little low. I may have mis stated the fellows instructions the other day. He said to have the ball about 1/2 " higher than coupler unhitched. I set it up once before, I will double check it...
  18. Windy day towing

    I guess my Saturday project will be to make a trip to the Cat scales, then disassemble everything and start over.
  19. Windy day towing

    I have a WOLF Pup 16HE, a single axle unit. Camping World originally set it up to where it was taking all the weight of the drive axle of my Ranger. The front measurement was actually lower than unhitched. Probably lucky I didn't wreck the truck. I had to lower the L brackets down, and take a...
  20. Windy day towing

    I have Bilstein 5100s. Talked the tech support with the makers of the E2, he recommended having the front a little high, to reduce weight on the truck, which I am skeptical of. My truck, trailer seems to be very sensitive to tongue weight. I may try taking a washer out of the head, which will...
