Anybody ever hear anymore on this?

I forgot to update this. I changed out the Red Head and everything seems to be back to normal. I actually am on my third one. First one lasted a few days and then would not return to center on its own. Second one lasted a day and then as I was backing out of a driveway turning sharp I heard a...

I want to upgrade my spring suspension for coils. I found a 2005 F250 that I can get the axles, steering, and suspension from or the whole rolling chassis if need be. I currently have a 4in lift running 35's. I would like to maintain that height so I would need to put a lift on the new axles. Do...

My buddy put larger tires on his 2012 F250 that require a different pressure than the stock tires so now he is getting the light on the dash. Can AutoEnginutiy changes these settings? I have not played with it yet so I thought I would try here and see if anybody has done it.

I changed out all the ball joints a little over a year ago so I would hope not. As per my email from Red Head this morning, they are sending out another unit today. I will post up my results after I get the new one installed.

I got my Red Head steering gear installed last Wednesday and it seemed to be a great improvement. Then Sunday I had a two hour round trip drive and I noticed that it seemed to stick and I found my self correcting left and right as I went down the one lane highway. I also noticed that when I turn...

Sector shaft is what I was told it was called several years ago when it broke in half. Here is a diagram showing the part I am talking about. This diagram is for a gear for a F150 but the steering it is similar. http://www.justanswer.com/ford/3d37a-93-f-150-steering-gear-box-play-it-can.html...

Can somebody tell me the size of the nut on the sector shaft of the steering gear? I think I used a 34mm socket when I installed the steering gear but it was not a perfect fit. I think its coming loose and I want to get a big open end wrench to tighten it:doh:.

Today I installed my Red Head steering gear along with all new pressure and return hoses, flushed the power steering/ Hydroboost. Then I installed my new nerf bars (RBP RX-3) In the past few weeks I installed HD4r100, 6.0 tranny cooler, cleaned my evaporator coils and installed Diesel site Max...

I got my new Red Head steering gear installed today and it is a night and day difference. There is no play at all in this thing and I can turn my wheel with one finger. Of course I also flushed my power steering/ hydroboost so I am sure that helped out as well. I only drove it for about 45...

Really not hard to do and with a hose wand I didnt get any in the cab. Just pay attention to where you are spraying. It is worth the 48 bucks in my opinion. Or there is always the ball valve route that is cheaper but you have to manually turn it on and off.

Been insanely hot the last week and I can say I see a big difference from pre coil clean and Max Assist install.

great link

There is no in cab filter that I am aware of. I think at one point there was a kit offered but I do not have it in my truck.

Have you talked to the guy who burned the chip? What is his take? I would have thought you had trash in your cooler or lines from the first mishap but since you said you changed it out I guess you can rule that out.:shrug:

5/8" I believe. I have heard of people getting the same results with ball valves. You would just need to open the valve in the winter to use the heater. There is a drain in the compartment where the coil is. I sprayed the coil down for a while and the water never overcame the drain or got in...

I picked up a Max Assist from Dieselsite and got it in as well. It was a pretty straight forward install and while I do not have any hard data (before and after temps) it feels colder to me. Here are some pics of it installed. The installation instructions that come with it are easy to...

Thanks everyone. I get so much help and good info from these forums I am just happy to have something to contribute.

I noticed my AC was not blowing as hard as it should so I took a look at the coil and it was pretty gunked up. I cleaned it and I am now back in business. I put together a play by play just in case anybody has a similar problem and does not know how to get at the evaporator. I am sure there...
