Yeah well after 20 times you can do it in your sleep lol! You never noticed the miniature brake shoes in there?! It's inside the rear rotors (the rotor itself is the drum) so if you're just doing pads you wouldn't take em off and see. @Bozz mine were the same way, I actually cracked one of...

Yes from what I've read that's correct. Does sound like the control unit but I don't know for sure, the one you replaced should move the blend door from defrost down to floor and then to vents if it's working right, or rather if it's getting the signal from the control unit to do so. Again...

I'm wondering how much difference it makes eliminating the stock center speaker from the audio system and dedicating it to the mobile radio...think I'll try that at some point.

Symptoms sound almost like 4wd engaging or alignment way out of whack?? I agree with @BlueOvalF22, sway bar is really easy to test, unbolt both sides at the LCA and zip tie it up and see if problem persists (or remove entirely). Balljoints also easy to check, for uppers jack one side up and...

Damn nice!! Is that a grease zerk on the shackle? What’s the red button do?!

He probably ducked into Starbucks or a carwash heh.

So top one is passenger temp blend, bottom one is driver temp blend, and left one (near skinny pedal) is floor/vent/defrost I believe. Yes there’s one Makuloko I’ve seen that covers the top one, albeit on a different flavor F150...

What do you mean panel only? Auto no worky? Could be control unit, but could also be battery, how old is it?

Gorilla glue!!!! Yeah maybe not haha

Kinda depends on the corrosion, if the shafts are ok, worst case scenario is caps and bodies, those are pretty cheap and you can get them from like Kartek. Rockauto has new fronts without spring for $390 a pop so...they oughta be worth $300-400 at least.

Well there's yer problem right there: Little white plastic part was sheared off from the drive gear, found it in that black position sensor. Odd that it would break off like that, all it does is rotate inside that sensor, very little resistance, the torque is all on the driven gear and blend...

All tore down, better than the whole dash and heater box: Think I'll crack open the old one and see what's in there...

Upper blend door motor done, no more clicky clicky! So coulda been worse, it wasn't the bottom one, but the top one that controls passenger side hot/cold blend. Started through the glove box, can just see the little bastard at the red clip: Got that screw out with an 8mm gearwrench, although...

Many thanks @The Car Stereo Company!!! I'll get ahold of you. Also thanks @Spectragod, no this is Gen1 SCREW so lotsa ground plane! Will see if what Noah has will work...

Just checking, I need a temporary solution, will get a GJ Motorsports NMO mount later this year, anybody got a mag mount with or without antenna laying around? Looks like PL-259 connector is what I'll need for a TYT TH-9000D radio...

Dammit, at least they got a good home!

Damn nice! Pucker factor a couple times, both the trees and the leader/follower!!!

Haha probably!!!

That sucks. If that doesn't work and no amount of button-mashing lock, unlock, lock, unlock, locklocklockfuckingunlock works you're going to have to open up that inner door panel. With the door closed it's a bitch. There's screws along the bottom, not sure how many and think they are just...

Had similar issue on my '13 when I bought it (used with a lot of hard dusty west Texas miles on it). Mine were f'n filthy nasty. Found a ton of early threads on here from around '11, '12 or so with same problem, apparently due to dirt/dust intrusion. Anyway mine only wouldn't unlock once in a...

That is awesome. She looks just as good today as the day she hit the showroom.

I did the same debate, finally took it off chasing front end clunks (still there, thinking that's a never ending chase that just moves from one component to another and back again, so these bushings and links are probably good to go). Haven't noticed any ill effects and uneven huge potholes...

Haha you need one too?! Not sure why I waited so long to pull mine, wouldn't put it back on heh. I'll get it shipped this weekend!

Looks pretty decent, even kept all the hardware (can't post a pic in PM)...

Very nice!! Crazy it broke right there at the connector and not inside the bellows. Glad you found it and got it done, not gonna happen again in THAT spot haha!
