    FRONT END STILL GRINDIND AFTER RCV INSTALL

    if it was the tire, it would happen all the time, right? and I was able to stand outside while someone else backed up. it sounded metalic, even like metal was binding up i have visually checked and I cant see where the tires would be hitting/rubbing. There is plenty of space and the tires are OEM

    FRONT END STILL GRINDIND AFTER RCV INSTALL

    Hey Tom, thanks for the input. I have to claim ignorance here, I have no idea about OPEN DIFF or TORSEN. Best I can guess is the truck is stock, so whatever was on it from the factory.

    FRONT END STILL GRINDIND AFTER RCV INSTALL

    Yes. I thought the problem was IWE, so I went with the RCV and thought it was fixed. Obviously that didnt work out very well. WHat I am trying to do, is go down a different path.

    I just installed the eliminators in May. I had not driven the truck very much at all, until a week ago. Then I moved to Missouri, so I drove from ABQ to here. I changed the hubs and had control arms replaced in the last two years

    FRONT END STILL GRINDIND AFTER RCV INSTALL

    Hope somebody can offer an opinion. I have removed teh IWE's and replaced them with RCBV Eliminators. I thought the probelm was fixed. The grinding I was hearing was intermittenet and only occurred after prolonged riving at high speeds. After stopping, it was gone. I assumed this was vaccuum...

    I took my 2012 to a local Ford dealer for this issue. They claimed to have repaired it. However, it came back within 12 months of the repair. They are refusing to honor their warranty because they can't duplicate the front end grinding sound. This is the crux of my issue. The sound only seems to...

    Hello from New Mexico

    I have a 2012 Scab I purchased a few months back. Been waiting a long time to own one of these. Im anxious to learn what this truck is really about and what it can do. I dont plan on making high dollar upgrades, but I am looking for CAI ideas, and possible tuner options to give a little more...
