    AntennaMastsRus - The Original 6 3/4 INCH

    I get about 80% as good of reception on mine. Works fine in the city, use phone on trips. I got it so the car wash attendant doesn't have to take it off...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    So even if I can get Ford to "fix" this, they are just going to put the same junk back in there?

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Appreciate the thought, but I was in sport mode. I was just curious if it has something to do with the cam phaser. I think I am going to have to either let the thing blow up or go to another dealer to get this fixed. I was hoping a thrown code might help prove my case...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    So I had a really bad miss fire the other day and it almost caused me to have a wreck. I hammered it going around 70 to pass some people in traffic and it felt like the engine completely died. Oil warning light went off, no power, no oil pressure. I pulled over and it had plenty of oil...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Mine was rattling every other start up, now it just has a tiny little tick. I know it will come back, but when? My last truck did it and stoped, but then waited 40k miles before it really started acting up... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My ‘12 ecoboost had it. My ‘18 raptor has it. I think it is a strong possibility 19’s will too. Call me a hater, but ima hatin’... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Bad mis fire

    Team, had a bad miss fire yesterday. Almost caused a pretty bad wreck. I was driving back from a ranch weekend. Truck sat in pretty low temps from Thursday to Sunday in 15-30 degree weather. I have been getting the cam phaser rattle every now and then and was surprised when I started it...

    Tire speed rating

    I think Toyo and nitto are the same company. I think the RT and the ridge grapplers are the same type of hybrid tire. They are a mud performance tire that drives like an AT on the street. Can’t go wrong with either. Btw, my ridge grapplers took 1/2 the weight that my stock BFG’s needed. I...

    Tire speed rating

    I just swapped mine at 24k as well. When the back tires were bald, I swapped them to the front, then burned those off. 24k wasn’t good. Went with 35-12.50’s ridge grapplers on the stock rims. The truck looks way more aggressive than before. Can’t tell a difference on noise or feel. I...

    Cold front came thru. Went to make another video. Thought for sure it would do it bc it was colder than usual. Started just fine. Ps, Ford shit on me, I’m not shitting on them... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Wish I would have done the back side. You can see it. Guess I need to do a fog light kit to hide that shotty work. Lol... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    I’m 2 for 2 and I’m freakin pissed. I could care less about a boogeyman. I have an awesome truck and I sincerely love it. This is like my dog having a tumor. Can it be fixed? Ya, but I don’t think I’ll be the same. The only reason I looked on here was to see if anyone else has had the...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    I spoke to my service writer. He said bring it in, they will keep it over night and see when they start it if it makes the noise. I know it won’t. I did get the Ford “premium” extended warranty, and he said he saw that listed on my vin report which is good I guess. I guess I’m going to wait...

    Painted Body Color Skid Plate Anyone?

    I did mine. Don’t have pics on me. I would recommend not to use an impact to take the skid plate off or to put it back on. It’s easy to break the nut tabs. Just get a big 1/2” ratchet (15mm/13mm). I also put a dab of aeroshell grease/anti-seize on the bolts when I put them back in. Think...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    The video is probably at the end where he is about to have a catastrophic failure. When it first starts happening, it doesn’t have the knock, it’s more of just a rattle. My understanding is eventually it will fail and the bill goes from a $3500 fix to a $10k-$12k rebuild. Those were prices...
