Great resource for my 02 4WD 7.3 Excursion Limited w/125K. I do most of the work myself and own the Ford service manuals...but this is a much handier reference. Many thanks!

You may have seen these, but go to ebay and search "superduty center console cupholder". It's a cupholder that attaches to the front of the console, it's pricey, but it is worth it!

Just want to say THANKS. I do work on my own vehicle many times although I can't say I do it out of enjoyment..it just is to expensive most of the time but when I do pay to have it done mostly the job is not done right..I recently heard some bearing noise in one front hub so I decided to replace both hubs,all ball joints and universal joints in both frt axles..I found ur write up and followed each numbered step. Even though u don't include universal joints it was great to check off each step, knowing I was one step closer. Your attention to detail matches up with real life experiences..the pictures,methods,tips and continual socket sizes were time saving examples. My experiences at times were a little different and maybe more difficult but I was able to overcome through your write up.
I would love to see someone do both sides in 2 to 3 hrs but I agree with u on about 12. I did mine over a week..30 min here 1hr there, then stayed on it 1 day to finish..about 12 hours...which involved cleaning and painting exposed parts, double checking and researching when things didnt come apart or line up like I thought they should, breaks from our Texas heat, and annoying little things that cost a lot of time...like a zerk fitting that broke off on totally installed ball joint and knuckle assembly that took probably 2 hours total trying to find tools to remove, looking for possible new ball joint after hours, and finally persistently getting zerk and its pieces magnetically removed from ball joint.
I have a 2002 f250 4x4 7.3 250000 miles. Bought in 2014
Gradually going thru it making sure things are right or as good as new and the way I like it...next is going to be replace pesky 2002 VSM (vehicle security module) possibly having hydro-boost rebuilt locally ,replace carpet and sound deaden floor.. thanks again.. Larry

Thank you, great source of data and knowledge. Appriciate the hard work you put into this site. One thing you may want to add on there too is about replacing the coolant overflow cap with an after market one that will maintain higher PSI in the system. Also when I did my coolant flush prior to putting bypass fitler on. I used two Cummings products to flush the system. Restore and Restore plus. One is a degreeser and the other is a descaler. Great products to really clean the whole system out, especially the silica from the Ford Gold Coolant in the oil cooler. Again THANK YOU, GREAT SITE! will reccomend to friends!

Fantastic Resource, thank you for putting it out there;
Owner of a 2002 F250 Super Duty 4x4 Crew Cab.
111,000 miles.
Question;
I'm fixing to replace my ball joints, what manufacture do you recommend? I have heard Moog or Detroit Axle are good..... your thoughts?
I'm also interested in your bypass oil filter setup.
Keep up the great work.
