A Few Upgrades

The stock hubs were stuck in lock position and my heat was blowing only through defrost. Changed out the hubs with MileMarker 449ss plugged the vac lines. The passenger side hub was WORN badly, the MileMarkers went in EASY and now my heat blows where it is supposed to.

Passenger stock hub


New ones installed





Tomorrow I'll have my Ford AIS intake delivered, hopefully installed!
And Tuesday my drivers side bottom seat cover and seat foam from The Seat Shop will be here!
I'll post pics as I get each installed.<input id="mac_address" value="" type="hidden">

VERY nice, knock on wood my hubs still work, but I need to grease them for peace of mind. (bought my '05 used)

Did the AIS quiet your turbo down?

Thanks
I had stock air box going to the AIS and the turbo noise did not change from inside cab, but you can hear it more from the exhaust end than with the stock air box.
