Not what I did to my truck, but my buddy slid his toyota into the front right corner of my truck.... Thought it'd be funny if he ripped the e-brake in a wet parking lot to slide around, and he hit my truck pretty hard. Put an enormous dent in the bed of his toyota. Actually bent the bed rail inwards. As for my truck... Not a thing

Greased my u joints and steering components, changed oil, filter, coolant, and best of all fixed my cruise! Found the problem by just taking the ten minuets to troubleshoot it, had no power from the deactivation switch, traced the connections from there, and found the problem. Going to be nice to have again since I drive the truck 130 miles round trip a day to work. Now onto replacing my steering box.

Very nice lol
FORD= 1
TOYOTA=0
My buddy had an ol 93 F250 and he fabricated a bad as brush guard for that thing... anyway he was going through an intersection when a Toyota blew the light and he t-boned the toyota... long story short his brush guard bent a little up on one side and as for the toyota a tire was knocked completely off and the entire front end rested on the ground lol my buddy made sure the guy was okay, waited for the cops, and then drove home lol

Wow that's a lot of miles. What's your weekly gas bill like?

As for me, had a small leak in the T-housing seal so I thought I'd just replace the housing along with the gasket. Made the mistake of going with the fancy Chromed Mr. Gasket with orings instead of a gasket. Couldn't get it to seal so I went back and got the OEM part with a real gasket. Sealing fine now. Also replaced the bypass hose.
