Do at your own risk. I am an entertainer, not a mechanic.
For all the fans of my ancient death-inspiring leaf springs on the truck; who's the go-to for replacement leafs for these things? The previous owner said the truck has a 6 inch lift.
General spring is whar I go through for all my leaf spring needs. You, having a significant lift, may have to go through Rancho or Rough country. Check general spring first. Replace ALL u bolts, shackle bolts, and leaf spring bolts. Do not try to save them. Up north, they are single use.
Dude, as 10,000 other people have already said- replace your leaf springs!!!
I was not prepared to see those. Yikes.
Its looks like the Titanic under there. Do yourself a favor and Fluid Film it before it rots any worse.
You live down south? This is pretty common up in the north. The truck will be fine lol
1. Snap ring pliers. 2. Leaf packs and hardware. 3. Replace things in pairs. God speed.
😂lol if you have 1 bad bearing thats definitely bad and 1 bearing thats definitely good whats the point in doing both
@@jamesbasye2362 typically with cars I've owned the parts have equal miles on them. So for example if my left wheel bearing with 150,000 miles on it starts to become noisy I personally wouldn't just replace that bearing and keep the old right side bearing. Some people will try to squeeze all the blood out of a penny that they can. Time is money so I choose to be preventative when possible. With your mindset would you replace 1 of say 8 ignition coils or 1 spark plug if it started to misfire? If they all had the same age and mileage I'd replace all of them. Too each their own.
@@skipmatt949 my point is im going to be the one working on it and im not going to drive on a bad wheel bearing, i know what it feels and sounds and im not going to drive on a bad one, its like cvs mine never both go out at the same time, i know because i replace things as they go out, and i can get 20 or so thousand more miles on old parts still in good shape
@@skipmatt949 i dont think theres anything wrong with squeezing what you got left out of a part, if something isnt broke dont fix it thats my motto and it helps to do it that way working for cheap people, brakes need done in pairs and so do shocks everything else can be done differently
@@skipmatt949 ignition and injection needs done in pairs especially if they are going bad, theres too many parts replacer mechanics that want to replace everything when its not always needed and they cant find whats the culprit because they lack the diag skills or they think they are doing it preventatively but honestly whos got that kindve money? Why would i want to spend 500 more dollars to fix something i could fix perfectly fine for 300,
That is like shoeing a lame horse. Hub is least of your worries. Not sure if you read comments , but those leaf springs are going to kill someone and when their loved ones find these videos and see your neglect you will be history.
Instead of putting your camera under your truck there is a a tool that would pinpoint the noise. A multichannel clip on sound pickup tool can let you hear exactly where the grinding is coming from. These are usually 6 to 8 pickups per kit and plug into a receiver that has an headset and a dial to pick which pickup is being listened to. I have used these tools to make a dealer take responsibility for a bad bearing on a new car. You can rotate the dial and listen to which ever part of the car you have pickups attached.
Just did the front end on my 03’ ram… rust belt projects are always fun
I had this same issue and was worried about the shaft being damaged too. If you have issues after this because of the wear on the shaft, you do have options. Ford will tell you that you can't buy just the new axle shaft for one side, but you can find it online.
It would seem like common sense to me that whenever your truck develops a humming/grinding noise in the front end that you not drive it a mile more than you have to before you can pull it apart and fix. Driving it around like that is what wrecked that stub shaft.
Your videos are truly the only thing that keeps me going. Thank you and great job!
Good video I just got my wifes Jeep all fixed up previous owner must have stripped out trans pan bolts and spent 4 evenings heli-coiling after work now it's time for the front end on my 02 7.3 upper lower ball joints and possibly some other while I'm there wheel bearings NICE TRUCK !!! 👍
I've been lucky with my 2000 excursion powerstroke, I've only had exhaust back pressure problems and needed glow plugs but while I was in there I also did valve cover gaskets
There's a hack where you can put additional grease in these "sealed" hubs. They are minimally loaded with grease from the factory. I did this on my F250, but I live in a snow and salt-free climate, so hub work is easy here.
thats a nice ass truck . in great shape for the year.
You will get good at wheel bearings running spacers! Unfortunately have been there!
i almost bought that same body style F350 a month ago kinda wished i got it 😅
lol dude this is elementary ford/ dodge/ older Chevy solid front axle stuff!
You can save yourself a lot of trouble and hassle by using some PB blaster and anti seize! On everything! Your live in a corrosive salty environment. As a mechanic, when you see a truck with that much rust on the frame and chassis, you Charge double! Rust bucket city. And it sucks, they out to outlaw and ban road salt in the way north east. It ruins everything. There’s a product call fluid film! Use it! It will prevent undercarriage rust! It won’t 200% prevent it, but it helps, the stuff really does work, it’s in a spray can, spray it on once or twice a year and it protects your frame, under carriage, body, wheel wells, steering and springs, hose it dow n all under neigh! Also you know what helps? Washing your under carriage once in awhile! I’m in Colorado, Colorado don’t use road salt, it’s to expensive to get it here. Things don’t rot away here like they do east of Kansas lol. But I still give the under carriage of my ‘02 24v cummins HO 6 speed truck. Like get the rain coat out and climb underneath with a rain coat on! I like to buy a case of .99 cent gloss black per can spray paint and thoughtly hose all parts of the frame and suspension, axles, all the nooks and crannies! Not the body! Just the frame, axle and suspension parts! My trucks 20+ yrs old and the frame is still shiny gloss black! Clean enough to eat off of! Washing that salt spray off is the biggest part! I’ve seen people out east that have full on wash racks they drive their 2 ton truck up onto at a 45* angle up in the air so they can easily wash the entire underside of it with a hot air boiler! Your truck dosent have to be a rust bucket! I would loose my marbles if I saw even the tiniest rust bubble that formed on my ‘02 dodge Cummins truck! In Colorado here we don’t do rust! It’s not a thing here! lol. Heck it hardly even snows anymore here on the western slope except at higher altitudes.
I would never ever buy a truck that spent any considerable amount of time up in the north east or east of Kansas. And if I did it better be really really cheap!
Grease grease grease! Anti seize every bolt, nut and 2 pieces of steel that contact each other! By anti seizing everything your least making it easier for the next guy down the road that takes it apart!
Watching this video made scream at the phone.
Leaf spring video would be a good video to throw up!
Anyway keep up the good videos man. 🤘😎
Timkin makes Ford bearings

Go out and buy snapping pliers should’ve done that the last time and yes replace the leaf springs.

Or, even better…wear your seatbelt.
@@TradesmanOutdoorAdventures most of the time yes but not for a quick test drive down the not so busy street
What about the other side?
Nose reduct
That truck looks like it is all beat up.
How many miles are on the old girl?
fix those god forsaken springs.. they could be causing all your steering issues by messing up the alignment.
