    Body Mount Installation Oregon/Washington

    Thanks for the comments. I admire those of you who did it yourself, I pride myself on doing most work myself. However I didn't want to do this job myself even with the great info members provided. Just don't have the equipment or confidence for this job. I did find a place to do it. Eric's...

    Body Mount Installation Oregon/Washington

    I was informed by my Ford dealer that my body mounts are deteriorated, I agree after inspection. I bought the Prothane kit, but now they are calling me telling me that they have to cut the bolts off and need to purchase body mount insulator as the nut is part of the insulator. Since these cost...

    Still a lot of life or time to move on

    Just got a 105,000 service. Shop informed me that my body mount bushings are almost gone. I'm going to have them install the Prothane bushings. Disappointing, but I've seen enough posts on the forum to know this was coming. But I'm still keeping it!

    Engine braking, transmission problem?

    yes, it slows it in 2wd, not 4wd. I've done a little research of Technical Service Bulletins and it appears I might have found one that relates. Still would like to hear if anyone has solved this problem.

    Engine braking, transmission problem?

    I am not able to use my engine to slow the vehichle when in 4 wheel drive (either high or low). When in 4 wheel drive, if I put the vehicle in 1st gear, it should (and used to) keep the rig from going too fast down a hill. Now it just seems to coast, almost like it is in D rather than 1st. It...
