Maybe. But I've got the Cognito brace kit, all new Moog parts, HD tie rods, etc with less than 60,000 on them.
I'd THINK a pitman arm with that kit should last longer than that, especially seeing how I went ~120k on factory parts, the first 100k with 285s and the last 20k with 35's with NO...
Nope, no Cognito's failed. They actually look like they held up well. But the Pitman arm they were supposed to brace failed miserably.
I'm currently running 315's on H2s; have been for about 60,000 or so, if I remember right.
The Cognito braces were fine... it was the Pitman arm ball joint end itself that broke off. It appears as though the bolt just snapped (the sound it made sure sounded like that). Very odd...
This happened tonight... thankfully there was no accident because of it... scary stuff, just completely lost steering going down the road... went to turn, heard a huge snap, and that was it...

Another vote for fuel filter... I've had filters start to go south as few as 4,000mi.
Ebay... Watch a few, don't pay more than $50 for one. They can be had for that much in good shape.
Check around to a few dealers; some will unlock it for a flat hr labor, some I've found will do it for free if you have the truck in for something else. All it takes is a few minutes on a...
I've had great luck with my Cooper Discoverer's... About 70,000 or so right now if I remember right, and there's still a good third of the tread depth left.
Got an odd problem with my dad's '04 6.0 gasser. The other day it wouldn't start; completely dead in the driveway. Came back a few hours later and still wouldn't start. Then apparently he opened the door and the interior lights just came on, power was back and the truck started right up and...
What size speakers fit in the doors on these trucks? Got an '04 crew cab with the non-bose non-lux stereo; separate speaker/tweeters in the doors.
What size speakers are these??
