Congratulations on the truck . I want to flip pages to find out the ending. Only because one of my ford trucks did this I put $5 on green coolant. Low mileage at highway speed on major highway rush hour a lot of smoke . Hope it’s something little let us know I’m biting my nails .
Welcome . It sucks losing your truck to fire . Once had one that had a standard transmission catch fire . When the parking brake failed it headed down the road like a Viking funeral boat about a 1/4 mile until a T pole got in its way and smoked a transformer. Very bad day
I didn’t have the rough idle . About half my lowers had a little build up the rest looked new . If your loosing oil I’d be concerned if not drive faster it’ll burn it off . Did you replace the coils & wires ?

Here my take on the shocks . As with most repairs checking torque after driving a bit is mandatory . Putting it under load when it’s on stands with a jack or lowering on a block is just smart and makes it easier . You don’t necessarily have to put your wheels on . After driving and checking...
Not my first time sugar . Hanging on a four foot torque wrench and using torque multipliers when you were still suckling on mommy . Maybe you come to Florida and I’ll show you how it done .
