That's fantastic! Any chance he'd replace my hubs and cv axles? I mean.... he's going to be an engineer. He has to know about this stuff right? Hahaha

I finally got around to the dreaded spark plug change on my 2007. I broke 5 of the 8. A lot of work, but I got it done.

I walked out last night and realized I had way too much "foo foo" parts installed, and spent a couple of hours removing all the gizmos, to restore the clean look that made me buy the truck in the first place. Removed the lower custom center screen used for a backup camera, removed the tailgate backup camera (never used it), removed the center tailgate Ford emblem that lit up with the brake lights.

Clean, basic look again.

I guess the question now is should I replace both hubs and both cv axles at once, or should I do one hub and one cv axle, then do the others in a few months?

Has anyone ever taken off the A-pillar by the windshield? If so are there any wires that run in there also is just the 2 bolts under the covers by the handle that hold them on? I'm planning on installing tweeters in or on them

Hmm, never looked that hard at it. Not sure how much depth there is, sorry.
