    Spark plugs/100,000 mile service

    No, the shock tower would still be in the way, overall it is not very difficult to change the plugs.

    2013 Suspension Rebuild Advice Needed

    It does not state the spring rate, it says to go by the original springs that came on the truck that were either a or b.

    What interior cleaner on 12 inch center screen??

    If it was an 11.9 screen I would say water and a terrycloth but 12 inches you're going to need a wire brush and some gasoline soaked rags.

    Another AC Thread?

    It's 10+ years old so probably just low on refrigerant. Get it serviced by someone who knows AC systems so you get it done right.

    Splicing the pass thru wires is a right of passage, we've all been there. Cursing helps git er done.

    What kind of gas does everyone like ?

    87 is ok if you need to save some on fuel cost, the computer will adjust for it. 91 is recomended in the hotter months or when towing. I personally fill up when the tank is half empty to make it not hurt as much.lol

    Are there better options for pads and rotors then OEM?

    As someone in the same situation, I will go with OEM brakes as I have in the past. The original front pads were replaced at 90K and I'm now at 176k and I will replace the rotors and pads this time around. The part # for the Motorcraft brake pads I used at 90k was BR1414. I read that the...

    Bead lock ring removal or not?

    If the tire shop has a modern tire machine that utilizes plastic pieces for tire removal it can be done without removing the beauty ring. I used my local ford dealer that had one of this type of tire machineon 9+ tires and not a single scratch leaving the rings on. Tried to save money when I...

    Electrical battery issue or what?

    A battery tender will help with keeping a good charge in the battery. Short drives are not good for any vehicle, reason: they never fully reach operating temp to burn off the moisture(condensation) that gets in the engine and exhaust system. My advice would be to change how you use remote start...

    4X4 system -> Transfer case and diff workout?

    I found out the hard way that you should put the transfer case into 4Lo 3-4 times a year to keep it working smoothly, they say use it or lose it. The first 3 or 4 years that I owned the RaptoR I thought using 4Hi was good enough, that is until I tried to put it in 4Lo, the grinding,engine reving...

    Another IWE thread

    I love the IWE system but they are utilized differently between the G1 and G2, example: the G1 IWE does not activate on startup.

    Another IWE thread

    Says the delusional G2 fanboy as always. 4-auto adds a lot of wear to the front drive components and is a big factor in IWE failures on the G2.
