I’m having a CRS (can’t remember ?) moment…what is the user name of our resident Ford parts guy. I want to order the SC back seat delete parts and clean up my “back seat” area.

pulled these parts numbers from a previous post.

The mirror needs to be shaped like an arrowhead so the birds can be impaled instead of hitting the mirror like a sack of concrete.

Hit a driveshaft lying on the freeway going about 65mph. Shredded both stock Grabbers.

Rear tire

The driveshaft in question...

I saw the thing in a split second and swerved to avoid it, but both left tires hit just the yoke end and POW!

The shaft fell out of the cement truck parked on the left, that about a minute before I hit the shaft, obviously coasted to the spot where I pulled over.

I am lucky there is no apparent damage to my truck other than the tires. It's at a dealership now getting inspected and new tires.

Also, there were at least 5 other vehicles that got flat tires from it (green arrows). I didn't have a chance to get pics of them all.
