    Steering Gear

    Has anyone had their steering box bolts work loose from the frame? Mine came out last night at about 30 mph, quite the ride.

    Trying to diagnose an alarming knock

    I'll have to pull the valve covers and rule out the guides.

    Trying to diagnose an alarming knock

    Is chuffing something that comes and goes? I watched the video and it sounds like one of mine, it just doesn't do it all the time.

    F-Superduty F450

    I believe Quigley also did a 4x4 conversion. I would love to get my hands on a 4x4 conversion and a larger cab, but I'm guessing it's probably cheaper to buy another truck.

    Weird that they didn't.

    F-Superduty F450

    Were the Obs F-Superdutys ever manufactured in an extended cab or crew cab?

    ZF Parking brake

    Barely any slack in the steering. I replaced the track bar bushings and the stabilizer, all of which were toast. It's now drive-able. I think it still has a little vibration at about 40 mph, maybe I'm imagining it. Either way, going to replace tie rods, drag link, steering gear and the kingpins...

    ZF Parking brake

    I replaced the track bar bushings and that helped, it's still wobbling occasionally though. I think it may have trashed the steering gear, as it now leaks like a sieve.

    ZF Parking brake

    I thought I felt a little play in the brake when I was checking u-joints, thought I'd ask.

    ZF Parking brake

    It's hard to tell, it's so bad, but I would say more the truck shaking than the steering wheel.

    ZF Parking brake

    Ok, have to dig through the suspension I guess. It starts around 35-40 mph, about shakes the truck apart,

    ZF Parking brake

    Does anyone have any experience with the ZF parking brakes used on the F450s? I suspect mine may be causing a death wobble, going to rule out any suspension issues first.

    Well, I think I have one, but I don't know if everyone in this post is in agreement.

    Where do you get a flexplate cloned? Such things aren't done in the upper midwest, people just park the busted up vehicles in a shelter belt forever.
