What did you do to your truck today?
Dodge+Ford = always ready
looks good actually.
parked the 150 for a little while, started having a starting issue randomly. i replaced the fuel filter today and ill be pulling the bed at the end of the week after i do the axle swap in the 250. going to inspect both tanks and probably replace both pumps with 2 good pumps i have laying around while im in there, at any rate the new pumps will have 50k less miles on them.

Oooo a Custom Title.
Today was an annoying day.
Went to start the truck, didn't start. Bad distributor. Thankfully it had Advance Auto Parts sold it with lifetime warranty and got it replaced.
After I got the truck running, the A/C broke. Low pressure switch failed and cause the fuse to blow, replaced and by the time I got a new one the Freon leaked out... Had my buddy vacuumed (no leaks) and refilled it now have A/C.
I'm tired of replacing parts on this truck, I need to stop buying this china sh*t from parts stores and get OEM motorcraft parts, like I did for the TPS, IAC and starter solenoid.

I bought my truck a few months ago and the red/black tailgate trim piece was missing. Searching ebay and Craigslist, I found one for $50. The aluminum was shot but the black piece was good.
So today, I performed some surgery using my existing aluminum and adhering the black trim part to it. All in all, it turned out very nice and am happy to have a complete tailgate. (The flamingo reflection is a nice touch too )

Looks great. I found one a few months ago in pretty good shape but with it on and the bumper I have now my tailgate won't open all the way so it's hanging in my shed. You'd figure with LMC selling them for $500 or more I'd get a little interest at $50 but no one has asked about it.

Huh, I would've thought they came with both. My truck had the red one when I bought it but it was pretty torn up so I just took it off.
