PULL UP ON THE WIND DEFLECTOR IN THE AREA OF THE TWO NYLON STRAPS (NO MORE THAN APPROXIMATELY 10 LBS OF FORCE SHOULD BE NECESSARY). THE STRAPS WILL SLIGHTLY DEFORM IN THE AREA WHERE THEY ARE ATTACHED TO THE WIND DEFLECTOR AND EFFECTIVELY 'STRETCH' BY ABOUT 2 MM.

thanks man..alot of info there

[Casper98GT]

No problem. thats all the info on the F-series rear end. Pretty crazy huh. If you have any more problms just let me know and i will see if there are TSB's for them.

[PEB0219]

I've got a 02 F150 SuperCrew (1FTRW086X2KC57205 , axle:H9)with a pretty noise rear end (sounds like bearings without any grease, any speed, with or without brakes, any load).

I've had the truck to two shops, one private one dealership and both have said it's the rear end. The private shop want to rebuild the entire rear end for $1000 (says, once he's in, should just do the whole thing). The dealership is telling me $800 for the bearings and then more if anything else needs to be replaced.

So, a few questions...

- Is there any reason to go to the dealer. It seems like this is a pretty easy problem to spot and that the any reputable shop can do it (no secrets to how a differential works?).

- The private shop said he could do just the bearings for about $600. Should I ask him to check the gears but only replace the bearings?

- Seems like this rear end is not the most reliable. Should I consider an aftermarket alternative? I pull a 3000 lbs trailer about 600 miles a year, otherwise I drive it like it's a car.

Thanks
