Howdy all,
My name is Jarod and im from Bethany, MO. Its a small town about 30 miles south of the Iowa border, right along I-35. Its about 100 miles south to KC or 100 miles north to Des Moines for me. A few months back, I picked up the truck in my signature (XLT Lariat 300 Straight 6) and I love it for what i use it for. I'm a welder, chainsaw and other OPE mechanic, and a custom knife smith. I also love shooting targets (making my own bullets, too), fishing, and bow hunting in my free time. I've gotten so much valuable info from here that i decided to become a silver member today. I appreciate all the past and hopefully future help and I'm not a master mechanic on big engines (mainly like working on Stihls, Husqvarnas, Dolmars, and Echos) but if i can contribute in any way or in regards to my specialties I'm happy to share what little knowledge I may or may not have. Haha!

Hi everyone - I am pretty new at this and hope it goes well. I am located in Cottleville, MO in St Charles county just West of St Louis. I purchased a used 2011 F450 Lariat truck a few months ago to tow my 40' 5th wheel RV with and have had a few problems with it that I have been working though - mostly by reading a lot of the posts in this forum - GREAT STUFF!!!
