I noticed today that when loaded (not sure of the exact poundage but 6 3/4" thick horse stall mats is enough) the truck will thud and crab right side first if I hit the brakes moderately hard. As I accelerate from stopped after this happens, I feel a thud in the rear end. What the hell is happening?

I think the thrust angle is changing under...

Thud and Crabbing Under Braking]]> 4 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 22:32:46 +0000 https://www.fordfullsize.com/threads/2008-f250-tie-rod-question.11620/ https://www.fordfullsize.com/threads/2008-f250-tie-rod-question.11620/ invalid@example.com (Pity7700) Pity7700

Guys, working on my uncles 08 SD. Just did a complete brake job on it, he spent $600 on a power-stop front and rear brake kit.

There is play in the outer tie rod on the passenger side. Now, this truck has 2 outers on this side, at least that's what I'm calling them. The knuckle has a tie rod mounted on top AND on bottom. The bottom tie rod uses the upper tie rods stud.

The question is, is the lower rod supposed to have up and down play, I'm saying no its not...

I am not looking to go huge, I would like to stay about the same height as an Fx4, or slightly higher.

I have seen 2.5 inch kits from Tuff Country, and I have seen leveling kits also, thought I would ask here.]]> 3 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 21:49:20 +0000 https://www.fordfullsize.com/threads/stock-rear-leaf-springs.11301/ https://www.fordfullsize.com/threads/stock-rear-leaf-springs.11301/ invalid@example.com (Bdons-SD) Bdons-SD
One of the main things I need to get done is shocks and springs, we have had the truck since 06 and I've put about 50k on it, 35k of it is after I bought it from my dad in 2011 and I haven't even put shocks on it. I'm going to go with a true 4" lift kit and...
