    probably more exciting to me than you guys...

    my own experiences on owning many vehicles is that bug deflectors only deflect bugs onto the windshield. Exactly what you don't want. They are completely useless. But enjoy! Just my 0.02

    Fuel pump problems.

    I highly recommend cutting the access panel it is very easy to do with a dremmel or cutting disc. Took me 30 mins to cut the panel and now I can change fuel pumps in 10 mins. I went through 3 CRAP fuel pumps from CHEAP sources and should have just went with the NAPA drop in the first time. As...

    Disable ABS

    For sure not rotors or hub bearing it did it when I got the truck and after I put new brakes on all around. From what I understand it is one of the sensors in the front hub. Not sure which one it is but you have to replace the entire hub from what I know.

    FYI I just went through 3 bad all in a row fuel pumps for my 96 X and let me tell you I am glad as HELL on the first one that I cut an access panel from inside the truck. It took only a matter of 25 mins the first time to cut the hole and 5 mins to change the pump there after. HIGHLY recommend...

    This is exactly what I have in my X I got F150 springs arched 2" with an add a leaf and just under normal driving they were back to normal within a year or so.

Codes the truck sputters out and dies when driving, if I pull over and reset the codes 9/10 it will start up fine and drive again for 20 mins no probs. Any idea's? I have done fuel pump, filter, FPR, new plugs...

    Add-a-leaf vs. F-150 leaf pack

    I got new f-150 springs with more of an arch put on them to raise the back end up a little. It is a little rougher ride but well worth it in the end.

    Maybe the fuel pump?

    I HIGHLY recommend cutting a hole inside the truck to do the fuel pump. I did mine that way and it was SO easy. I swap fuel pumps now in 15 mins. So when my junk yard special fuel pump dies I can just get another one and slap it in.

    Code Probs

    These codes were only thrown when I was towing my 2 place quad trailer and not at all since. Any chance of a coincidence? Maybe she does not want me to tow with her anymore?
