    Door lock help!

    Yeah I replaced both actuators in the rear a few years ago. A failed actuator wouldn't cause the whole threaded rod that the lock tab screws onto to pop loose though, would it?

    Door lock help!

    Ok thank you. A broken plastic clip connecting to the control rod is my guess as well. Any idea what the part # is for those clips? Or what the proper term is so I can search for them?

    Door lock help!

    Hey guys, I have a 96 F250 Crew Cab with power door locks. My question is regarding the driver side rear door lock mechanism. A few years ago the actuator went out on both rear doors. I was still able to pull the lock tab up and down from the inside, but that got to be a pain so I replaced...

    Truck won't move in OD, 1, or 2, regardless of 2wd or 4wd. Only reverse works.

    Damn...definitely not what I wanted to hear... but thank you for letting me know. Will the entire tranny need to be dropped? Or is it something where I can drop the pan and work on it laying under the truck?

    Truck won't move in OD, 1, or 2, regardless of 2wd or 4wd. Only reverse works.

    I've got a 96 F250, I think it's the E4od trans, but I'm not sure and don't know how to tell the difference. As the title says, it won't go anywhere in OD 1, or 2, it doesn't matter if it's in 2wd or 4wd. It will rev up, but it's like the transmission isn't engaging with the engine. Reverse...

    Question on uneven tread wear

    Ok, well I guess I'll be doing the ball joint that's bad, getting the tires reballanced and rotated, and getting a fresh alignment. I can't afford to do all 4 ball joints though, probably going to have to stick with replacing just the one that's got play. What's the reason for doing all 4 if 3...

    Question on uneven tread wear

    Unfortunately I'm in the middle of a move right now, sp I don't have access to my jack or jack stands. But the last time I had the truck in the shop they said there was about 1/8" of play in that ball joint, but that it wasn't an issue yet and could still be driven for awhile. Is that the...

    Question on uneven tread wear

    I have 35" Nitto Trail grapplers on my rig. (96 7.3 F250 w/4" lift). The tread on the inside of the front passenger tire is wearing a little unevenly. One lug is high, one lug is low, the next is high, the next low, and so on. It appears to be just the inside portion of the tire that's like...

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    Ok, when they ice over like that, is that usually caused by being dirty and/or clogged? Or is it caused by something else?

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    The blower motor is working now though. I jiggled the wiring and it has been fine since. Also, what do you mean "if the evap is freezing it will blow air flow"? Did you mean block?

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    Update: I just went out to check if the ac compressor clutch was engaging as per Tiha's suggestion. Before I could even do that though, I realized that immediately upon starting the truck, that the fan wasn't blowing at all. The AC compressor clutch was turning initially, but then it stopped. I...

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    Ok thanks for the input guys. I just realized I said I was wondering if the condensor was dirty or freezing up in my original post. I actually meant to say the evaporator. I've heard that the evaporator core fins can get dirty and clogged on these trucks, and that can affect the ac performance...

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    Ok so I just got back from a drive around town. The engine is still pretty warm. I tried spinning it by hand with the engine off, and there was a decent amount of resistance, but I was able to spin it by hand in both directions. Then I turned the engine off and tried to stop it with a piece of...

    Ac weak at highway speeds

    Hi guys, I have an AC problem I figured I'd submit to the hive mind here lol. I just had my truck into a local shop because my ac wasn't cooling enough. It was still blowing cold(ish), but if I sat at idle the temp at the vent would slowly climb. The shop evac'd the system and pulled the orifice...

    Hi there, sorry for the late response. For some reason I'm not getting notifications when people comment on my posts. Anyway, to answer your question; YES. I tested them by twisting the panel back and forth at the weld area on multiple different welds, trying to put stress on the welds in...
