I had to google search it and it went into description and physics behind balance and the physics behind a wobble.

do you remember hitting a curb or something?

The truck, as stated in my other posts, has been abused to death.
It is kudos to ford for making a truck to stand up to the mindless abuse that I have reaped upon her. I've pulled tow trucks out sent to help me. No kidding, she is one beat up POS. But, its my POS. I have bounced off rocks, trees, sank her, climbed mountains with it. A curb would be a gentle bump in the road. Its not a street 4X4. Its a 4X4 of death and sends fear into the hearts of jeeps who may confront her.
To your guestion, can you have a balanced bent rim?

do you have any pics of your POS?
is this the same truck that you thought would float?
I'm pree sure you can balance anything but it would be a total p.i.t.a. to do so with it being bent.

you will be awe struck at the sight of the mighty ford.
Raw guts and the untold HP of the legend, the 4.2.
Yes, I will take pictures, a sight to behold. I will strike fear in lesser men.

Woe is me.
No matter how hard I try, not a picture one can I upload. Sorry you have to miss the ford in all its glory. Some day, perhaps, I will do this ,but, by then I will have become 3rd page forgotten wasteland. Sad.

Upload them to your FTE Garage. If it still won't work, then you may have to downsize the photos so that the file size is not too big. Good luck!

tried and tried with a small pic with no luck.
I think its ashamed to be seen by mere mortals.

Did you check these limits on your pics?

Yes I did, John, To no luck. Story of my life. All and all, you good people have been a great help and I will help in kind if anybody sinks a F150 in a small inland sea. In that forum, I am a expert. She climbs once again. this time with holes drilled in the headlights to aid in draining water, 1 HID turn signal, no lens. 1 mirror. no front bumper, tow hooks welded on and reese hitch that fits front or back for my winch. All is good.

o my goodness the description needs a picture.
so you finally got the electrical all worked out?

The gremlins still lurk in the deepest recesses of the intestinal maze that we call a wiring harness, but, now they rest. All is quiet now except for the glowing yellow eye on the non functional dash cluster.
I await their return. The floor mats dried out quite nicely, though.

at least something positive has happened.
