Every 4x4 I've owned especially with (((auto))) hubs I have replaced them with warm hubs. You will be glad you did.
@JesseJames Just because China turns out cheap shit doesn't mean that should be the standard for our expectations. I've had $50 dash cams and they were unreliable junk. I would have saved quite a bit of money had I purchased quality the first time, rather than purchasing cheap junk, then going on to purchase quality.
And this is a device that could save you thousands when some liar crashes into you and blames you when the police show up. GoPro might overheat under continual recording. Also, when the SD card fills up on a GoPro, it stops recording. Dash cams automatically over-write the oldest footage to keep recording perpetually.
Yes very good points man. I think it is worth it. I should invest in a couple good ones.
My transmission coolant line is leaking on my 2007 f150. Can a novice home mechanic replace the line or should I take it to a pro?
@Dale Wyte#3319 is it just the line?
And how bad of a leak?
@Deleted User are you sure it isn't an oring or something rather than the line itself.
@RevStench @JesseJames it is leaking where the line enters the radiator so something with the seal and not the line itself.
Yes that will be very easy for one to repair themselves. I think they just use an o ring on the end of the line. You will just take it loose take the old o ring off and install the new one. You can google it and find a guide.
@JesseJames thanks !
There’s no help posts at the moment, so here’s the funniest motorcycle video I’ve seen all month:

And here’s the 2nd funniest:

@Pinochetball I have a question for you. So for the first time in my life I took my truck to a shop to have them break loose an O2 sensor. Which never happened, but he asked if I wanted them to run a diagnosis on it, I said sure, I've only had the truck since October, so I figured why not. I did all the preventive maintenance when I got it. All fluids changed, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs. I have one of the 150s that spit spark plugs, and who ever owned it before me tac welded one in, not worried about that.
So the truck is throwing a code P0130, which is powertrain code for the O2 sensor, the shop is telling me that my truck is throwing a false ODB2 code and it's really my mass air flow sensor. Is that possible?
It can happen but its more likely to be an o2
Higher rate of failure on o2s than mass airs in general for forda
Fords*
They told me a lot of wrong information, they tried to say K&N filters aren't good on 150s.
Id have to see the fuel trims and the actual data from the mass air to tell
Lol
Do you clean your k&n yourself
It's brand new as of march 9th
The oil on k&n filters can fuck with mass air meters
They might be right here
Sry to say
Im more of a buy a cheap filter and be diligent about changing it kinda goy
So they also told after their check that my reverse and clearance lights weren't working, that morning before I dropped it off they were working for a fact. It was lunch time when I went to pick it up and they told me this, so basically it came down to me saying screw you give me my truck. I took it home and started to try and figure out what they did to kill my lights, so I did the normal trouble shooting, first thing check the fuses, they fucking pulled on and didn't even try to put a blown one in. They created a problem and expected me to just roll over and let them fix it.
Still haven't had time to figure out why my clearance lights aren't working.
Why do you think they broke your lights?
You certain they were working when you brought it in?
Generate business
Ehh...
Most guys dont actually do shit like that lol
Yeah, I went to the coffee shop across the street and they have cameras, and they were kind enough to show me leaving that morning
Ahh nice
