Ken,help me please

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 26-Jul-00 AT 05:14 PM (EST)[/font][p]I need the TSB# for the door cracks again,I was sure I wrote it down correctly but the dealer told
me it was no good.I went back to the thread where
you gave it to me and it is the same one you gave.
They said that the first two # are the year/and
the second two are the week,and so on . They also
tried to tell me that because I was from TX that
it was caused by rough driving(off road) I don't know about the previous owner ,but I have owned my
truck since 24 thousand miles(now is 43 thousand)
and it has never been off of pavement since I have
owned it.

My dealer was clueless as well. I gave them the #s and they did not have them. I'll try again. I even called Ford and they could not match the #s. Your cracks are not caused by off road driving. If anything your bed will hit the cab before your door cracks (I've done that). Tell that to your know nothing dealership.

I've heard a rumor that the explorer had this to and they eventually recalled those doors. So, to expect the same.

98 F-150 XLT,245 70 yokahama AVS/ST's
prarie tan w/tan int.
K/N gen.II fipk
B/M electronic shift improver
COBRA 75 remote mount CB with weather alert
SNUGTOP LID/body color
4.6 litre V-8
Well that is the number I gave the dealer and they
told me that the second 2 numbers were the week it
was issued ,so that if it was 67 it would be impossible because there are only 52 in a year!!
I have 98_______love it except for the cracks!!
