Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Limited Slip In 2WD?
I have a 2wd f150. I want to put in a limited slip diff. I have found a ford racing one that is reasonably priced but all the application guide shows is mustangs. Will it work in my truck provided the size and number of splines is correct? I also found an AAM diff...
View 4 RepliesFord F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Rear Gear Swapping With Limited Slip
Ok so I was going to just swap the whole rear end from drum to disk but it looked to be too much difficult;t. So the rear I have has 278,000 miles in it and its starting to make noise we were thinking about swapping the gear from the disk to the drum because the disk rear has 140,000 miles on it. Both have a limited slip. And 3.55 gears but i was thinking about getting 3.73.... So my question is can I swap in 3.73 gears into a rear end with the limited slip from one with 3.55 gears? Or do I need to buy a different limited slip?

I picked up a 2004 F150 a few weeks ago. It has the limited slip 3.73 rear end. During acceleration on turning, I'm feeling quite a bit of chatter out of the rear end. I've read the TSB on it, and I'm wondering how much it'll cost to get the clutchpacks replaced in the rear differential.

View 7 RepliesFord Transmission :: 1999 2WD - Limited Slip Rear Differential With No Leaks?
I recently changed the rear diff fluid on my 1999 F250 Super Duty (180k) It was due plus I was getting some chattering when making turns from a stop. The Diff fluid had about 60k miles on it and seemed to be a little low even though I don't see any leaks. I paid to have it done last time so I can't say what kind of a job they did.
I used Motorcraft diff fluid and 8oz of friction modifier. Two weeks later and about 500 miles, today I noticed on two occasions when turning a moaning sound coming from the rear of the truck. Could this be a sign of too much friction modifier and the cluthes are slipping or is something else going on?

<HR style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff; COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=1> <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->
Hey everyone,
I've been shopping for a 7 seater with some decent gas milage and maybe room for dogs in the future and school buses are too expensive, heh. Would love to get a 7.3l Ex and I may have a chance now...but wanted to get your input...
A good mechanic friend of mine that owns his own shop, and a former ASE Ford Mech has a friend with a 2001 Ex Limited 4x4 7.3 w/310k. The interior and leather seats are in great condition, no cracking in the leather. They have never towed with it, mom drove it to shuttle kidos. He only wants about 5-6k for it, should I ****** it up or wait for something else, it seems like a great deal for a 7.3l.
There has been no mods and the front end was rebuilt by my buddy about 3 yrs ago. This would not be a daily driver but would get a fair amount of use with 7 of us on weekends.
thx
Ford Excursion :: 2000 6.8 Limited 2wd - Random Miss In Motor
I am a proud new owner of a 2000 X 6.8l 2wd with the 4.3 rear end .
I have had the truck for 2 weeks now . When I bought her , she ran a little rough but I expected as much after sitting for 6 months ... After driving her home I began to start a massive tune up , because she was acting like there was a miss ... The miss only started after she was at normal operating temp and at first only when at cruising speeds in overdrive on the freeway , it progressively got worse ... The miss became all the time once up to normal operating temp but will do it wether she is in any gear or even park .... Oh and the miss is NEVER at the same time it is always completely random ...
I have changed all 10 coils , all 10 plugs , the PVC valve , and I am changing the fuel filter this afternoon ... Other then that I think I can hear a vacuum leak , but I have tried spraying carburetor cleaner around the engine bay as instructed by a " ford expert " at the local auto parts store and I did not notice any change ... After I install the new fuel filter I am going to fill her full of 93 octane and add a bottle or 2 for Lucas octane boost as well as the Lucas injector cleaner ...
Other then these things I am at a complete loss ! This is my first v10 ford so I am a little at a loss ... Now if this was my wife's BMW 760 or my Lexus IS 300 I would not be having this problem.
Ford Excursion :: 2002 4x4 Limited - No Steering Wheel Radio Buttons
So I was talking to a guy today with a 2002 Limited diesel. I noticed that his truck didn't have radio buttons on the steering wheel. I thought all 2002 Limited had radio buttons on the steering wheel. The inside of his truck also had simulated wood grain in places that my truck (also 2002 Limited diesel) didn't have.
View 3 RepliesFord Excursion :: Vibrates At 60 To 65 Mph?
Yes, I have read the Vibration sticky. I am hoping for the experience of the group as well. Last summer on a road trip I had a horrible vibration at speeds of 70 or so. I had the tires re-balanced and it really worked.
I now have a vibration at 60 to 65 very constant at that speed. Has me thinking speed sensitive, but it also increases when breaking through that range, speeding up through that range and coasting. Based on the chart I'm looking at speed sensitive but also torque sensitive.
Should I try to rebalance first?

View 3 RepliesCorolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Transmission Seems To Slip When It Is Shifting From 3rd Into 4th
Car - 2011 Corolla S - Auto Transmission
My transmission seems to slip when it is shifting from 3rd into 4th. The second that it shifts into 3rd gear the rpm drops and shifts into 4th (This is when i have light to medium pressure on the pedal). If i push the pedal down 3/4 of the way once the transmission shifts into third then the rpm rise for at least 4-5 seconds (which seems more normal). In addition the shifts are a bit rough when the transmission is shifting up or down.I am looking for some insight before having a dealership jerk me around.
Ford Excursion :: 2003 V10 - Slight Slip When Transmission Shifts From 2nd To 3rd
I have a 03 ex with a V10. Just recently my trans has started giving me problems. Sometimes when it shifts from 2nd to 3rd I get what feels like a slight slip. Sometimes it doesn't happen at all. Feels almost like it is downshifting for a second. It also doesn't seem to make any difference whether I am hard on the gas or not.

Have a 2009, 2500HD 4X4 23K miles that has an occaisional/intermittant trans slip when shifting from 2nd to 3rd (I think). It always seems to catch me by surprise so it may be 2-3 or 3rd to 4th. Shift point seems to be around 1800rpm, engine revs to about 2500 during the slip. It's always shortly after starting up and the trans is not necessarily up to full operating temp. I've noticed it happening in the dead of summer as well as the dead of winter.

My local transmission guy is pretty reasonable but like most salesmen he's going to say rebuild it the entire transmission in lou of something less invasive.

View 5 RepliesIS F (2008-2014) :: Belt Slip Noise In Manual Mode Shifting Above 5.5k Rpm?
Car is:
1) Warmed up
2) At a standstill
3) In manual mode, 1st gear
4) Traction control is on/normal
5) Sport mode is on/off (doesn't seem to matter for this example)
How to verify:
1) Hit gas, more than 3/4 down
2) Shift above 5500rpm
3) As transmission up-shifts a drive belt squeal is heard.
4) Car otherwise accelerates normally.
This happens on two IS-Fs I've driven, a 2009 and a 2010, with or without the AC on. Is this a common issue? If so, what belt is slipping?
