Hi.. the new guy!!
Hi,
I'm John!.. I live in Calgary and I'm new to F150 4x4s
My family has owned fords for about three generations. I built and swapped a 302 into a v6 mustang ii.. (15.3 @90.0 @3400' elev) and now am building a faster straight line car with a stroked 460.
My 95 F150 4x4 Daily driver makes a strange noise in the front end. It sounds like something in the steering knuckle at low speeds and it sounds Springy???!? It seems to have stock Manual Front Hubs. Is this the way these are built? what can be told to me about recognizing the auto front hubs and whether or not a conversion kit was installed?
Of course it has a driveline clunk and loose driveshaft u-joints.. So those will get done today.. i need this back together pretty soon so any _direction_ on which forum to read would be of great assistance.
Thanks all..
I look forward to learning a lot here!!
John

We are happy to have you! There is a ton of great info on this site. But, before you go snooping around there are a few things you need to do first.
1) Want to meet or talk to other members in your area? There are Provincial, State and International Chapters located near the bottom of the main forum page.
2) Before you post a thread asking a question be especially aware of where (what forum) to place it in. FTE is HUGE! Make sure you read the Read First: at the top of the forum before you go posting.
3) And finally you should review the Guidelines. They will kind of give you an idea of what is and isn't allowed on this site ("The Rules").
And that is it. I hope you enjoy the FTE "Experience"! This is a great place and we have lots of fun while exchanging valuable info. If you have any questions or problems do NOT hesitate to contact me. Just click my username then send me an email.
-Matt
