I heard you do t need to do anything g with the vacuum when putting new bearings in When the truck is shutoff the iwe engage so when you put a new bearing in they are engaged as well. When you start the truck they disengage as vacuum kicks in
Hell yeah Mitch! As much as I love my F150 it's a bit much as a daily driver + numerous trips back and forth from Tennessee to New York every year, if I ever come across another clean 5speed Ranger I'd buy it in a heart beat.
I've only changed my iwes once. Otherwise no issues with 4wd. Wheel wells on these f150s rust from inside out due to foam/adhesive strip. 2012 with 207k miles and mine are 100% rotted out. EPAS is failing? The whole rack is like $1200... bummer Mitch.
You didn't grease the part properly or you cooked your wheel bearing. Also these MUST be put in at the same time. You are fing your Tc if you only do one.
@@HitchinMitch, i am a little hesitant on doing this delete option, i guess im just gonna do it, a couple hours...or i may just pay to have it done, thanks...
What size is the grease fitting?? I got my 1/4" tip stuck like two cats f****n' and actually, ripped out the dern' fitting on the I.W.E. titself... Stuck a short screw of same thread grain and Dia. but, before I do the same to the udder' side I'd sure like to know what the proper fittament be!! So's this way I prevent further truckery of the 4th kind. If yah naw'm sayin' sayin" homeskillet!! Lol. Basically doth thoust knoweth thine grease fitting size for Doormans I.W.E. for the F150, mines 08, believe 04 or 05 to 13, just about the same for much of the mechanicals...
