post some pic's down the side's of your 04+ F-150's........

Iam trying to get an idea on how much off my truck is as my passenger rear tire sticks 1/2 inch further out the wheel well then the left(driver side)rear tire does, plus Ford says my body (cab) is off to and will need adjustment as well, are your cab's fit plush with your beds? My driver side is off 1/4 inch from bed, not a good fit and finish. So if you all can post up pic's from front looking down or the rear looking down the sides and the fit with the cab to bed, tires from wheel wells, just so I can get an idea how much this F-150 is off, much appreciated, thanks. Jeff

I know when I got my 06 the bed was off by a bit, probably about a ¼ on the drivers side. I just loosened the 6 bed bolts and pushed it over a bit and now it’s perfect. As far as your cab and tires sticking out and being different on each side….I would say that it could be the frame being out of wack just a bit?......or the rear axle it not lined up properly with the rear leaf springs mounts….just an idea.

I would get some pics for you but it’s snowing like crazy right now!!

Well, just for the hell of it, I looked at mine front to back, back to front, and top to bottom with my wheels straight. Looks perfect. Built Ford Tough in Dearborn...Rogue Pride.

Ya Dearborn built (means squat to me..lol) it has the sticker in the passenger window. This is the first NEW vehicle I have purchased and really disappointed in this experience in Ford, this truck, maybe mine was assembled after lunch when everyone came back to work drunk and stoned (lol..sarcasm) when they assembled mine huh? No wonder stuff is going over seas ( I hate that though ) . I never had this problem with any used trucks I owned my old F-250 1993 7.3 diesel , Iam missing that truck now. If the frame is bent how? Can it be fixed? It's new truck....Thought Fords had the toughest frames? How did it get by inspection before shipment? Probably high or drunk inspector overlooked it (just kidding of course). You never know though, shoot now there gonna tweek on it and other stuff may become wrong in the process of them fixing it.

Read my other posts to you, and then have a few beers. It'll get fixed. Probably take care of that thumping you hear when people are in the back too. If the rear axle is off, I'm sure it affects the torque differential...

These arent the best but they are some I already had. I am not sure if you will see what you are looking for in them.

After looking at your pictures "obxredneck" the tire thats sticking out on mine is actually normal then the one on the drivers side in the wheel well thats more in, your passenger rear tire is out the same distance where you can't see your front tire, also your drive side bed and cab seems off like mine and your passenger side is perfect compared to your other driver side. If you can get me a pic of the driver rear tire to see where it's at as far as depth in the wheel well it would help, thanks
