  1. Phantom EGR code

    A few weeks ago I got a CEL caused by a P0405 (Low EGR voltage) code on my 2006 F-250 6.0. I noticed no other symptoms. Internet searches indicated the solution was to replace the EGR valve. As I was leaving the parts store the CEL went off, but I replaced the valve which was quite dirty. It did...

  3. Glow plug replacement

    A CEL came on my truck so I purchased a Code reader, gave me a glow plug fault on the number 2 cylinder, how hard would this be to do myself or would this best be left to a professional.By the way, the Autel MaxiScan MS309 is a nice code reader especially for 25 bucks.

  6. Superduty tires

    If I were to get that 2006 F-250 I'd be putting new tires on it. Would 35x12.5R18 or 305/70R18 (34.8x12) fit? Also, any tire recommendations? In 305/70 all that's available are Dick Cepek Mud Country or Radial FC II. In 35x12.5 there's Nitto Trail Grapplers, KM2s, General Grabbers, Hankook...

  9. 2" Lift

    So for a few years I've been kicking around the idea of doing a 2" lift on my Bronco. I'm pretty sure this summer is going to be the time that I actually do. Doing some research and talking to the mechanics where I work I've put together a list of stuff to make my own lift. It seems like I won't...
  10. Intermittent brake warning lights

    Both the red parking brake light and the rear ABS lights started coming on intermittently yesterday, staying on for only a few seconds. Today it seems to be happening more frequently. There is no noticeable change, also the parking brake light comes on first. Any ideas?
  11. Front folding bench in Bronco

    What is the feasibility of putting a front bench that can fold for rear access in my Bronco? What work would be involved and what are potential donor vehicles?
  12. Dash Lights Not Working

    I was driving today and my dash lights went out. Played with the switch a bit and it wouldn't come on. The outside lights work along with the interior turn indicators and warning lights on start up. The display back light for the radio also goes out when lights are on, but with turning the...
  13. Speaker Wire Colors

    Which is positive and which is negative? I couldn't find any labels on then, why the heck couldn't for just use red and black.
  14. WTB: Mounted 33x12.5x15

  17. 2008 Chevy Suburban, no power whatsoever

    We were driving home today and saw somebody on the road with their lights off, so we went to flash them and all of the electronics quickly turned off and then restarted. Car was fine after that, no CEL. Got home and tried to do the same thing this time the radio turned off. When we parked it in...
  18. Muffler

    I've casually been looking for a muffler for my Bronco, looks like I need a 2.25" dual offset. Any suggestions?

  21. Shuddering under acceleration

    I was driving to work today and about 5 or so minutes into the drive under acceleration the Bronco would shudder horribly and not want to accelerate. This both happened going up a hill and coming off a stoplight, but it will cruise fine. Idle was good, no CEL, and all gauges good.Edit: Forgot...
  22. Ring and Pinion Questions

    1. Will I need a new carrier when switching from 3.55s to 4.10s? 2. Anybody recommend a gear brand, I know Yukon is the leader but the price is too much to justify.

  25. Tire Choices

    All of these tires are within a few dollars at the retailer with the lowest mounting prices which oddly happens to be the place that we get almost all of our tires done at. The 12.5"s all say that the minimum rim width is 8.5" but I doubt a half inch will make that much difference. Saying that I...
  26. Can you put a 12.5" wide tire on an 8" wide rim?

    A belt blew on one of my tires today so I need to get at least 2 new tires and I figure since I want to put bigger tires on it anyway it'd be best to do it now. This summer I plan on getting a leveling kit, AAL, and regear it to 4.10s and I think 33s would go best with that. There not many...

  28. HEGO sensor

    I have a code 41 meaning that my HEGO sensor is not detected. Where is the sensor? Also, I had 2 EGR codes indicating I need a new EGR valve, could that of caused that error? Also, would it be better to just use the RJM kit and ditch the EGR?
