Got the new brakes installed today. Took a few miles to break in the AC Delco pads on the coated Duralast rotors. But once they set, they worked great. I did several mixed speed stops and threw in three or four panic stops to break the pads in and the feel got better and better.

I'm willing to blame myself this time, even though I used synthetic grease (not silicone like they recommended)after the factory supplied silicone grease washed out within a few weeks of use. But I also think this may be a case of Spohn not designing the bushings to fit the brackets on the truck...
Not sure but I'll share the Seller's info from ebay for you guys to look up. They had an excellent rating with tons of transactions, and the wheels got to me pretty quickly in very good packaging. Info coming soon

Exactly my thought too. I personally think it was pressure sensor leaking and the shop just didn't have a clue and started replacing parts

Oil cooler lines at the mating surface with the oil pan are known to fail as well. But that leak is very specific to a general area and won't spray the whole back of the block like the oil pressure sensor will

Still waiting on my new rotors and pads, but the new replica Trail Boss wheels and BFG KO2s look fantastic on my 2010 Tahoe. And plenty of extra space between the outer face of the original caliper and the inner face of the wheel hub and spokes, so I'm confident there won't be any clearance...
These bushings were absolutely trashed and they've only been on my truck for about a year and a half. I'm not blaming Spohn at this point currently, but if these new bushings let go then I'm going to have a serious problem with them. Pics for reference. The carnage is impressive

Well, the grease channel experiment for the Spohn bushings is basically a no go as they already come with grease channels. Not sure if the original bushings have these same channels but I'll post pics after I do the swap. I've attached a pic of the new bushings for reference

Lol, I waited until the very last possible moment so I could do everything at once. Just replaced upper and lower control arms on both sides as well as the hub assemblies. Was going to order regular old direct replacement ******** until I found this thread. Now I'm blowing money all over the...
I have a band type filter wrench and have never had issues with LS equipped trucks. But if you want a real tip for this "problem " then just use the oil filters for the Ford 3.5 liter ecoboost motors in the F150s and full size Transit vans. Same threads on the filter as an LS filter, but the...
