You will need to "retrain" your TPMS system to recognize these new sensors. This will need to be done each time to you swap out the rear tires/wheels.

Someone made the sensors for Ford. Go to your local parts house or tire store and acquire them. The local tire store probably knows which one quicker than the parts guy at Ford can look it up.

Assuming the tire store installs them, they should have the proper device to have your truck recognize the new valves

That’s why I don’t bother with them; not worth the cost in my opinion. I have the tpms in my 2011 F350, but didn’t put the tpms valves in any tires I purchased for it. Just as easy to keep an eye on your tires.

does the truck flash or ding because there are no sensors? I keep an eye on stuff but dash lights or dinging irriatates the crap out of me

It goes off randomly a few times a year; not all the time. Just press “ok” and it’s done.

When I switched from 17's to 20's on my 2011 I bought a set of five sensors for $40 off of ebay. Discount tire didn't charge anything to program them.
