Well I started to do my ball joints and I most of done something
gppd. Because when I went to remove the rotor on the passenger
side. Some nice person had used grease on the hub and the thing
more of less fell off in my lap. Then the snap-ring was not a problem.
You can bet that I'll get hosed when I go to finish the job later tonight.

I haven't done anything to my 6.0 in a long time.... I remember reading this forum before I purchased one and thinking what am I getting myself into... You guys were lying obviously I couldn't be any happier with my 6.0

Good description of work.

Put a new water pump in my EX, not really because it needed one, but I just hadn't spent any money on it for so long. Got rid of that plastic impeller, and replaced it with a metal one. Now we both sleep better at night. Had to order the fan wrench, glad it was only $50, because I could not get that stupid fan off. My wife was wondering why I kept yelling, "you want this new water pump or not?" New belt while I had the fan off, might have been the original.

Truck runs the same as it did before, but now it knows I love it again.

Thanks guys.
I like it a lot.
Headlight out put is much better with these.
I just got lucky and found them on CL and was able to go scoop them up.

So what did you do to your 6.0L today?

Loaded up the Atlas 80 and SRL Extreme with a more preferred strategy. After some adjusting and learning, my 6.0 runs better than it ever has
