New redhead steering box today with some mobile1 synthetic trans fluid. Can't believe how tight it is now!

Since I'm putting my mustang back to stock to sell, I swapped my head unit and speakers over to the truck. Also washed it for the first time in about two weeks!

Surely you got that backwards right?

I thought the same thing. Lol. But I think he meant 5 percent on the door windows and 20 on the rear with slider.

haha no us "kids" in delaware are fine. LOL

the rear crew cab doors and the rear window with slider had factory tint on it (which i believe is 25% or so), so i had 5 put on the front passenger and driver door, the two rear crew cab doors and the back window got 20 to match the five on the two front doors.


serious question, did i do it wrong? only other vehicle i had tint on was my ranger with 5% on everything and that was dark as hell, and the rear window and extended cab had the same factory tint as this truck.


i didnt really want it too dark, even though i have aux reverse lights and a camera, i just knew with 5 over everything and a trailer it would probably be a pain. my buddies acura is 5 over everything and its not terrible, but he would never tow with it. plus i drive a non tinted car daily, so i know i wont get used to it as fast as i did the ranger till i peeled it all off.

I've had three people ask me last week about the tint on my wife's expedition. We got it from CARMAX and Florida and I guess VA people are scared of dark tent bc the cops here are assholeish...

On the super duty side I got the dash it. Not anywhere near finished but I have to travel for work so it'll have to do. Atleast I have maps and can watch movies... And American Sniper came out ok the torrent site... Merica....

hope so, the shop that did it is pretty reputable in the area, and its the first vehicle i've actually spent the money to get it professionally tinted so it should work for me. i'll have to get some better pictures later. As far as the unwanted attention, trucks registered out of state for now so I'm not to worried. I know i may have a problem when i finally settle down in Jersey, but being a diesel its self inspect from what i've been told so i'll just deal with it.

Fixed shift flare that caused the tires to lock up, now to find the overheating issue, thinking oil pump needs to come out to clean debris from thermostatic pieces.

Yep. Gotta love salt.

That's whats weird. The truck has almost no rust on the frame. I guess it just got trapped in there over time. Its also a Tennessee truck that was a local trade in when I bought it. Do you recommend just getting the dust shield alone or is it worth the cost to buy the complete one with shoes from Ford?

Mine is rust free on the frame too. If the brake arm moves nice and easy and your shoes are in ok shape. I'd get just the shield.
