    '01 F250 Center Caps Debacle

    I am at an impasse with the rear center caps on my F250. A few weeks ago I dropped it off at our local tire shop for all new tires. On the way home, we lost the rear driver's center cap. Ended up ordering a new one off of eBay. That off-brand center cap did not fit the rear driver's side...

    Aluminum, Galvanized Steel, & Galvanic Corrosion

    I have attempted to research this to find my answer but, to be honest, it is way out of my area of expertise. I own a nice little 12ft aluminum trailer and I am wanting to add a spare tire mount for obvious reasons. Finding an all-aluminum mount appears to be next-to-impossible. So, I have...

    Just bought a gently used Samsung Note 8 from a co-worker. His carrier was AT&T, mine is Verizon...we had to do a carrier unlock prior to me registering the phone. Once that was done, Verizon had no problems getting the phone on my account. All was going well until I made my first call and I...

    Mopar 10yr/150K Coolant question

    I'm needing to fill the reservoir tank in my Durango. Owners manual isn't much help since it only recommends the Mopar fluid and doesn't give a spec. I do know it has the 10yr/150k in it. Today, I went to NAPA for some items. I mentioned needing a jug of coolant for my 2014 Durango and...

    4R100 Drain and Refill? Am I two quarts low?

    Notice the F250 in my sig was getting some shutter at low speeds when turning. Checked my records and discovered it has been awhile since the trans was flushed and filled.
