- How to video on replacing the track bar bushing on a Ford F-250 f350 superduty. I believe this will work for 2005-present superduties. This was done on a 2011 f250 using OEM Ford parts.
Thank you for this video! One thing I wish everybody would do that you did was lay out all the tools needed, sizes of tools, and the part numbers!
Thank you hopefully it helped. I mean to in my videos and sometimes I forget haha. It helps when people know what they need ahead of time so they don’t get half way through a project and realize they don’t have the right tool and it’s midnight and everything is closed. Nothing more irritating.
I’m about to tackle this job tomorrow! Thanks for the video!
Thanks for this. I have a 2015 F250 SD 4x4 stock setup, 245K miles, with death wobble and evidence of toe-in. Truck is In otherwise great shape mechanically. Have changed steering stabilizer and shocks with oem, torqued them to spec. , tie rods look tight no apparent free play in steering. Gonna check the track bar ball joint and bushing thanks to your video, and get a 4 wheel alignment after putting slightly larger tires (275’s now, going to 295/60/20 AT). With all I’m reading about this issue, I’ll keep replacing things 1x1 until it goes away. With the miles on this truck it’s probably a good idea anyway. I don’t have a torque wrench to deliver that 400ish ft-lbs, but taking an example from you as an engineer I’ll get help getting it done. Wish me luck.
Great job and explanation! Thank you.
Question, i just did mine on a 2015 ...new bar with bushing and new ball joint and now i feel my steering wheel is farther off center than before. Thinking it was off before but the tighter parts are showing how truely off it was now without as much play? Did you notice any of this?
Maybe i missed something, but aren't you supposed to torque bushings with the weight of the vehicle on it, IE you're on and on the ground?
Thanks for the video 👍
@@DjDuncman the weight of the vehicle is on it. I jacked up from the axle so the full weight is still on the suspension. If I would have jacked the truck up from the frame then the axle would have dropped and not had weight on it and that would be incorrect. But the way I did it the full weight of the vehicle is still on the suspension
@@DTF_Motorsports Roger that! That's what I missed. Thanks again.
Did this fix the wobbly
Thank you. Good video
How about torquing the nut, not the bolt?
I did torque from the nut side. I didnt show me torque the nut I had to take the truck to my buddies to use his torque wrench because I didn’t have one that went high enough so I just got it as tight as I could to drive it over there. I got it pretty close we barely got a quarter turn before we hit the torque spec
Did this fix the death wobble issue
In my case yes. There are a lot of thing that can cause death wobble, so I’m not saying it will fix all death wobble. But in my case I knew exactly what mine was from because I knew everything else was new high quality parts. I knew that moog bushing was my weak link. Don’t even waste your time with anything but oem. That moog bushing was barely a year old
