    Ford says the TC is rated to tow 2000 Lbs. The standard tongue weight for a 2000 Lb trailer is 10% as a result they say 200 Lbs on the tongue. I am sure that there lawyers tell them to stay quiet on cargo carriers and bike racks.

    The inner grease shield on the bearing is plastic so it lets the tone ring work. I the bearing is reversed the steel Grease shield would block the signal.

    Did you remove the sensor while you replaced the bearing? They get damaged very easily when the bearing are pressed in or out. If you are keeping a spare bearing around it could be a good idea to have an ABS also.

    There is an interlock That will prevent the Right Slider door from opening. As for the electric door motors , more stuff to fail.

    If your Springs are good Rock auto has OEM grade struts for 89-92 dollars and changes each. Kyb is good stuff.

    My only complaint is that even though the system knows the location and tire pressure it is not available to the driver in the info display.

    The SKF book says 59 ft Lbs and then 90 degrees with a oem new nut.

    low power

    When they check it out have the waste gate checked. If it is not closing tight it will take the turbo longer to spool up and give enough boost. As davidparker asked Did the problem start recently or has it been around along time.

    Oil Leak

    G B L replied to Fifty150's topic in Gasoline

    Well that kills a thousand dollar bill. Was the warranty still in effect?

    Sounds like something got in side . The do sell Re-coned units, The amount of the core deposit depends on how much of the turbo they can reuse.

    Cool!

    Leaf Springs have more noise over time than link and coil spring suspensions, not much of an issue.

    Is the Body in good shape? Runs well , good price? Knock 1500 off the price, I bet you can find the Clunk for less

    When a new issue happens after a job, the first thing I check is the last thing I worked on. If it was normal and then not something changed. Step back and look you will find it.

    It is a great thing that the cars are much better and getting better all the time. They need to because the Average driver is getting worse at the same rate as the improvement in the cars!

    A Trailer Hitch would be nice, but it is easy to add afterwards.

    When that happens, you can look at him and say with a smile " You are looking in the Mirror!"

    How did it run before the work was done?
  22. G B L
    Did the hose swell before the work was done? sounds like a gasket was put in differently than intended causing a blockage
  23. G B L
    I think the wheel bearing is still a top contender so if you have to import stuff get a wheel bearing and a water pump just to save time later on. Keep us posted.
  24. G B L
    It could be the Intake boost sensor or If it sits over the turbo charger it could be the waste gate actuator.

    Did you change the Tie rod end? Does the noise change when you go around a corner ? What happens when you Rest your foot on the clutch and take up the free play? Have you checked the Transmission oil? Does it go away in when the Transmission is in direct drive?
