we need to find this guy. cause he rolled my first raptor and has dented my skid plate multiple times

Hope he has deep pockets! Sounds like he owes us all a number of new parts.

He isn't the same one that's made you have to remove your shocks so often is he?

My truck was making sounds on hard left turns. Apparently, the IWE vacuum line was cut on that side. Any ideas on how to patch it temporarily? I'll go ahead and order a new iwe, but until then looks like I either find a small thin hard tube to jump across where the vacuum hose is cut, or glue on a larger piece of tubing like a bandage.

Lots of different places
Baling wire and bubble gum. Band-aid and super glue. I'd try to find a small rigid tube and a couple tiny hose clamps, separate the vacuum from the vent enough to torque 'em down. Or disconnect both sides and plug them and you'd pretty much be the same as RCV IWE eliminated, live axle...

Finally getting around to the trans fluid change. I have a new pan with drain, seal and a new filter in the cart but … i can find new bolts w.t.f. Lol. Anyone know what bolts fit?
Pull one out of the pan and roll to your local hardware store....

Use another car, unless you're a gambling man.

Idk if ford and chevy pan bolts are different. Theres plenty of chevys but i dont have another f150 at work, so ill have to do that method when im home LOL

I'd assume it would be platform specific. I know there is a fair bit of cross over. I'm sure you could ask the parts dept or if you got an in with a ford tech. They have all of their procedures on a toughbook and they reference all the part numbers.

I half wonder if some thick sticky tape would work temporarily?

Like the large gorilla tape or something.

What fer? Is the new pan that much thicker? They are small, not sure exactly but like 4mm x 15mm, and there's a ton of 'em...
