Ford F-150 Front & Rear Shock Replacement How-To
This video will show you how to replace the front and rear shocks on the 2005+ Ford F-150. The front uses a strut/spring combination and the rear is just a basic shock. In this video I reuse the spring on the fronts if you don't want to deal with compressing the spring you can also replace the strut assembly with a new spring already installed. The truck in the video is a 2014 F-150 and struts/shocks were purchased from Amazon and I have provided a link below.

Scion XB Spark Plugs Replacement How-To
What $25,000.00 looks like sitting in the floor...😂😂😂
Dude my car just crapped itself. This is definitely helping out since I have to change my oil anyways.
Drop the oil pan?
Is the aluminum oil filter housing better than the plastic ones?
Was your OEM tensioner pulley plastic? Also was your new pulley metal or plastic?
Channels like yours is what youtube is made for, very convenient and informative, very well made instructive video, thank you
Appreciate that thanks
Be sure to tighten the bolts on that housing evenly, in other words try to pull them down at the same time so you do not stress the housing and crack it. It is cast aluminum. Alternate from one side to the other and pull it down tight evenly. Ask me how I know?
Hey thanks again my brother love it
Hey thanks great video love it you went through it with ease
Wrong oil weight 5w40
Owner of this truck has been using this weight since day one no issues
What year is your tundra?
2013
Thanks! Just did mine by following your video. Broke the rubber grommet for the air intake duct support leg....Didn't realize you just pull straight out on the assembly. For anyone reading this it is another plastic pin with a ball end. The rubber grommet that just snaps over the ball. Just like the ones on the top engine cover....
Thanks for the tip
You were under the car with just a jack holding the car up?
Yes but do not do that.
Great video...thanks for sharing.
Any chance you can link me to this for a 2019 ford transit connect xlt 2.0l ? I can't find the full assembly ANYWHERE.
Found it lol. This video might save me $350. Shop was charging 2 hours labor at $135 an hour, plus the part. On Ford OEM it's called a Oil Separator - Engine Crankcase Vent Valve
Been looking into this job on my 6.7 and I have to say your video is by far the best I’ve seen. The fact that you go the extra mile and take out your wheel well for the viewer to get a better view and you tackle the block drain plug just to see if it’s worth it, really shows that you care about you viewers, you’ve got another subscriber. Thanks for the awesome vid man.

Thanks man you did a great job 👍🏼🤝🤝
Can these parts fit a 2013 scion xd?
No you will need these for a 2013 Scion xd amzn.to/3RtodPM and amzn.to/3Vupnvw
Hows you car ride over bumps you feel them hard or smooth hows the ride.
Although this is not my cars but is my buddy’s and he says it’s smooth just like oem ones
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE ya i have a 06 chevy cobalt but the ride is stiff and when i go over bumps feels like no struts or shocks rides really hard.
MUCHAS GRACIAS EXCELENTE VIDEO 🤝🏻
You Literally Walked Me Through My Installation of My 2 1/2 Leveling Kit , Great Video No BS Everything Turned Out Fantastic. Thanks Alot !
Excellent video, thank u! I just got the p0128 code and this was the perfect video to watch
What happens if bolts break??
Really appreciate the detail you provide especially with the plastic grommets and gaskets on the Chevrolet truck series. These plastic pieces and parts cost me more grief than you could possibly imagine you've provided some decent workarounds and insight thank you
What do you use to clean your parts they look brand new
Nothing really just always keep everything clean and if I ever saw and oil leak or something I’d fix it right away before it had a chance to get on everything.
Im get p0452 on my 2013 focus st i just bought but it looks like the purge valve has been replaced so i dont know where to start
I started to install this belt a year ago, and worked on it off and on for 2 months which it seems is when you put this AMAZING VIDEO out so I missed it! Thank you so much for not only a great and easy to see video but your excellent explanation! Thank you thank you!!!
Thank you for such a clear and easy to follow video 👍
You can use a 1 1/4 wrench for the belt tensioner. The power steering belt is insanely difficult to do by yourself. I have this POS engine on my Mazda. Nothing but problems
Why did you buy a pitman arm for a 1500 and not the 2500 hd?
The 1500 and 2500 use the same pitman arm there’s no difference.
Great video my man!!! Did you need teflon tape on the plugs? I have a 2014 300S w awd and my owners manual called for 75-140 in the rear dif. That was the only difference. Ide be really interested to see you do a filter/oil change in the 8 speed tranny))) Thanks again! ✌️💯🇺🇲
New to your channel, any videos for doing a coolant flush on a '16 SEL AWD?
Question for you, I have a 16 SEL AWD with 145k miles and never had this done and looks like an easy-ish DIY. My question is in the links you provided on what to get. The link for the PTU Oil on Amazon says 'Ford Genuine Ford Fluid XY-75W140-QL SAE 75W-140 Synthetic Rear Axle Lubricant'-keyword REAR The link for the Rear Differential Oil on Amazon says 'Genuine Ford Fluid XY-80W90-QL SAE 80W-90 Premium Rear Axle Lubricant'-also says REAR Long story short, they both say for the rear, but isn't one more for the front and the other for the rear? Which is which? Is the PTU for the front and the Rear Diff Oil for the rear obviously (Genuine Ford Fluid XY-80W90-QL SAE 80W-90 Premium Rear Axle Lubricant - 1 Quart a.co/d/i4HKABx) Thanks
Whats the torque for the caliper bracket bolts
Thank you very detailed and easy to understand. Big help bud
On your front dome lights, the base socket the bulb fits in, yours looks like it has a contact on the insides of the plastic socket. On my 04 excursion, they only have a contact on the very outside edge, and the incandescent bulb wires are extended from the bottom of the bulb and pushed out into the side contacts on the bottom. Do you know where to get the updated bulb socket that is more like yours (part number maybe)? I can't drop a standard 921 bulb in there as it wont make contact at all and the wires just break if i try to mimic how the factory ones are. Thanks!
I caught your "Short" on the PPE leak a couple of days before watching this video and didn’t put it together at first... I first thought wtf another PPE leaky part!!! 😮
I have an 04 excursion (colorado also!) ive been slowly changing all my lights over on as well, had the same issue with brake and reverse light clips breaking. So far haven't had issues with them working their way lose. However, i do like the LED tail lights you used, may just go that route. No resistors needed or hyperflash issues from what I saw? Also when you go to replace interior bulbs, alot of the tabs that make contact on the bulbs are going to want to break on you as well so be cautious with those.
I Good morning bro, my honda acura 1999 model is delaying in shifting and when shifting to gear 2 it makes notice couple with dragging. How can I get this shifting sensor.
Why use the 5w-30 instead of the 0w? And I was told the Dexos thing is just a GM spoof
I just replaced mine. Thank you, Amigo. They look fantastic. I ordered them from Amazon ❤
Great, helpful video. I have a 2017 GC Trailhawk and will be doing this for both diffs. I plan to use Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 full synthetic, which contains friction modifiers for my ELSD. Do you see any issues with that? Looks like about 3 quarts should cover both diffs.
I have a '14 ST with about 55k miles. No issues with it whatsoever but I'm looking to change out my spark plugs very soon. If I have no issues with my coils, do you still recommend replacing them?
No sense in replacing them. If one goes bad it will usually throw a code and check engine light.
thank you!
whats the metal bracket thats connected to the passenger side motor mount 14' 300c 5.7 its like a thin black bracket
Very well done 👍
Can you use dex/merc fluid? I have a bunch of that and can’t get a full answer online. Half the people say it’s fine others say it’ll ruin the trans
That should work just look on the label and make sure it meets the requirements of dexron III or dexron VI and you’ll be good.
That transfer case oil is expensive I’m glad 1 liter will do for mine .
Thank You So Much The Manual intentionally sucks so that we will pay Jeep mechanics for everything:(
