Congrats on the truck by the way.

So I was replacing the washer pump in the Lemona last night and noticed that the engine cover was missing. Kind of weird. I know I have never left it off or it would be laying around the garage somewhere.

I got them balanced up pretty well, though I have a couple of not perfectly round wheels in the back. There is no vibration now. Well, other then what the tires give based on the tread. I actually thought I'd swap them out right away expecting then to be way loud on the road, but they actually aren't that bad.
Glad that the tires don't roar like they look like they would.. Bummer about the wheels... Those won't be cheap... I don't know what year the cut-off was, but Ford swapped bolt pattern spacing on the wheels mid-late 2000's .... Might find some take-offs on eBay. Good to know about the beads. I will keep them in mind.
