Thanks, all. I know my valves are shot, I didn't know if it was due to oil pump failure. I won't throw money at the pump then. now I'm contemplating if I should just do the valves, engine swap, or get rebuilt heads. Thanks again everyone

well I really don't know if it is the pump. I have found zero threads on it as well, my pressure gage is acting up but I haven't replaced the sensor yet so I should do that first.

I know, I haven't seen any post on the oil pumps here. it's a long story but here is the short version I've had a bad valve tap that got really bad really fast, in a matter of 30 days. the thing is, it tapped for about about 2+ years and then all of a sudden in a 2 week period it craps out...

has anyone changed out an oil pump on a 2004 GEN 1 ST 4x4 auto. how hard was it???? any info would be greatly appreciated. I'm pretty mechanically inclined. I just changed out my water pump. THANKS!!!!!!!!

I replaced my water pump today and I still have a horrible tapping coming from my engine. So i'm pretty sure it's my valves on the driver side. Does anyone have any recommendations one a brand to buy from. I have napa, autozone, advanced auto parts, o'reillys, in my town. Orlando, FL. I'm...

which air hose? the one that attaches to the air intake. I also cleaned out my throttle body and the sensor on top of it. Thanks for the reply

Well I rolled 225,500 miles today. Replaced spk plugs, ignitions, wires, rear wheel bearings, axles and spider gears. I have alot of bad symptoms. My engine is sluggest and barley able to pull the truck. rough idle, loud racket on start up, seriously bad valve tap on driver side. My...

Thanks guys, I had a shop do it. alot of parts were shot but they gave me a great deal on labor. thanks for the heads up, really appreciate it.

I need to change out my rear wheel bearings, Do I need to take the axle apart(differencial cover) off in order to removed the bearings? I can do the front bearings no problem so I'm pretty handy with tools but not interested in taking my dif apart. I know you need special tools for the rear...

What is the size of the center bolt on the leaf springs. I have a 2004 4x4. I want to buy a longer spring and throw a few more leafs in there. any help would be great. Thanks,

Does anyone have a pair of leaf springs they want to sell. I wore mine out. I cannot even put a 2500lb trailer on my truck without out it sagging to the ground. I put new shocks on and it still drags. so i know it's the leaf springs. If you have some let me know what you can sell them for...

thanks guys again for the pic & confirmation

thanks I'll buy that no problem:haveabeer:

The OEM bolts have a rounded shaft that slides into the link bushing. It's not just a regular home depot bolt, otherwise I would have bought one. You can fit a regular bolt in there but then the link fill have about 1/4 gap and will be bouncing around the bolt

somehow, I snapped one of the bolts that connect the link to the rear sway bar. If anyone has an extra end-bolt for the swaybar I will buy it from you. The stealership doesn't sell just the bolt. You have to buy the whole sway bar $25. I just need the bolt If you can help me out I would...

thanks I will check out that post. AAMCO did pull a few codes, but off the top of my head I don't remember, I wrote them down on the receipt. I do have overdrive still. I will probably rebuild it anyway. but I'm trying to make it last as long as I can.

I had the valve body done 5 years ago at about 100K. AAMCO took good care of me. I beat that VB up towing and hauling and I never had a problem until I hit 200K. Now I have trouble shifting out of first and second gear when In "d". I can column shift (1,2,D) and it works good if I take...

Sorry I meant CV axles for a 4x4. Ford sells them for 1700 total
