We are all good on here, and some of us are real good. lol

But we need just a bit more information, like at least is it 2wd or 4wd and what motor and what is the brand/manufacturer of the headers??

I'm getting the feeling it is rubbing on your headers, am I right? lol See, I told you some of us are good. lol I bet 2wd, F350 with a 460 and auto trans, and you are in PA?
