Ordered an SCT livewire tuner. I've had the edge for a year and I have no complaints but I can't change the tire size to 40" on it. So, livewire it is! Pic for fun

Lightbulb vct sensors...

just picked up a 2004 lariat super clean with 139xxx, loud idol so just did an oil change and changed out my VCT sensors pretty easy and it helped a lot! now i hear another clank in the motor tho , its random sounds almost like there is something in the motor that shouldn't be in there??? any ideas. the truck has been very well taken care of but i cant help but think i may have a bigger issue than cam phaser.

Why don't you start a thread on this so ppl can directly help you so that it doesn't get lost in the mix.

I agree with the above post, start a thread and maybe post a video of the noise. Clanking other than phaser diesel noise would make me think of a bad follower though. Try to get a video so we can help.

Got the projectors all aimed! Sealing them up tomorrow, hope my new switchbacks will be in the mail in the morning. Also got new tag light bulbs from Diode Dynamics the HP3 style. Much brighter than a normal 194 bulb and a little brighter than the Sylvania ZEVO led I had in there. Overall it was worth the $12 spent.

definitely gonna make a huge difference to the truck.

I gotta admit, for some reason my first mental impression of the shroud scheme had me doubting how good it might look one in the headlight. I guess I couldn't really picture it right. but your teaser pic definitely changed that.
