Brotherhood of the travelling hub zerk
I would add to the grease recommendation, to use a lithium-complex base, non-moly-fortified grease.
Ford recommends a moly grease for wheel bearings, but Timken, the hub's manufacturer does not. They actually use Infinitec 152, but it's not available in smaller quantities, so I used what I believe to be the next-best-thing, Delo Grease. It, too, requires a larger buy, but Mobil 1 red synthetic grease is available a lot of places, and only a single tube is the minimum. It has VERY good properties, and easily meets the spec.

Two pieces.....it's the 2000 model Power Stroke Diesel door emblem from F250/350..........ordered them from Ebay.... and put them there instead of on the door....liked them better there....since Ex's come unbadged.
I try not to drive it when they salt...yes they salt here in VA.....and that other new stuff....hate it ....it's sticky and hard to wash off.....I keep it sprayed off ....I think it's because it's a TX truck originally
