Welcome to FTE MuddyHill, I hope you learn a lot here, I did, have fun.........

Welcome to the chapter.

Looking forward to learning about how to take care of my 'new' truck instead of taking it to others. Looking for someone that would not mind taking on a newbie that lives in the area. Wife says I need to get out more now that she's retired and home more ;-)

Welcome to our group.

Ask away, and we'll fix you up!
most of the guys in Md are within an hour of each other.

Are you retired too Mud

PS you may as well tell us yer name.......

That we are Charlie. And Muddy feel free to ask. If any one of us can help we will.

So as not to call you muddy, how about a name?

Good evening everyone - my name is Barry - No, I'll never retire - my brain keeps churnin out ideas. have a 'day job' that keeps me thinking and doing a couple days per week in the medical field - we have 3 acres with blueberry bushes, chickens/layers and two hogs that will go to the butcher next week and get replaced with goats this next go round, have a friend that wants to go into the honey business with me again next year and then I have a rain barrel business to round out my day Aquabarrel.com - Rain Barrels, Downspout Diverters and Filters, Rain Barrel Kits - Aquabarrel(R).

Does anyone live near Clarksburg? I'd love help in learning how to replace the front pads/rotors. Watched several videos and looks pretty straight forward. Would like to have someone over my shoulder the first time.

Also saw a cool video on sucking out the oil from the top of block. Has anyone done that? POWERSTROKEHELP.COM - The Information Source for Ford Power Stroke Diesel Owners & Mechanics and Home of EDAS® "Engine Damage Avoidance System" for Powerstroke Diesel Trucks

Pleased to meet you Barry, I'm all the way up here in Northern Ontario....

That barrel business is interesting huh

Good Day GIGGER - I ship a fair amount of product up North. Mostly parts for DIY

Front pads are easy enough, it's replacing rotors, and re-packing bearings in your 4x4 front that gets tricky. You can always bring it here, everyone else does.

As far as the oil change, I use that method in the boats, but prefer to drop the oil in a pan on my trucks. There's plenty of room under your truck, so you can just crawl under and have at it. use caution on your drain pan, the 7.3 holds more oil than what your used too

Welcome to FTE and the MD Chapter, Barry. Listen to Charlie - he has owned danged near every model Ford truck made!!!

Charlie where ru located?

Barry welcome to the site and the MD Chapter. I am a regular visitor in the MD chapter so I am sure that you will see me around.
