Check vacuum pump seal.. they're notorious for having loose bolts from factory... Upper oil pan could be but don't think so since that year model they use a gasket instead of silicone like new trucks.. Or crank seal which would be last

Oh by the way on the hub assembly which Ford likes to charge $600 for you could buy the inner bearing if you pop it out and take it to a part shop and just do a number swap which might cost you only 40 bucks which is a hell of a cheaper.

I’ve worked on so many of these trucks, and I have to admit that these 6.7’s are awesome. The 2011-2012’s have slightly more issues than the 2013+, (turbo and valve body, upper oil pan gasket etc.) but they are awesome trucks. I have a buddy that bought one brand new in 2014 (2015 model), and he’s a hot shot trucker with 322k with the original U-joints. Also, that oil leak under the truck is from the upper oil pan. Look into it. Also, cummins and GM have the exact same amount of front end issues as the fords. It’s just normal wear and tear.
@JLCmike401411 ай бұрын
The upper oil pan gasket is a common leak point on those 6.7L engines. You guys should’ve done balljoints on the truck while you were that far deep into the axle just so you don’t have to do it a year or so later. I just recently rebuilt the entire front axle on my ‘99 F-350 with the 7.3L. Going to be doing front and rear driveshaft U-joints soon, they’re original with 155K on the odometer.

@@CharredSteak, not bad to do really. I did the front shaft a few weeks ago, going to do the rear sometime this week. My truck is an extremely early late model ‘99 truck. It had the saginaw double carden joint instead of the spicer double carden joint. The difference is the saginaw has a longer tie bar between the 2 joints of the carden. Just make sure you order yourself new yoke strap kits for the front and rear, those tiny bolts tend to round off since they most likely have no anti-seize on them.

@@CharredSteak, i definitely would. I already replaced my carrier bearing about a year ago so it’s fine. Couldn’t do the u-joints because the bolt heads rounded off some and i didn’t have the twist socket to get them off until now. Plus they weren’t bad back then, just the carrier bearing. I prefer the greaseable u-joints but others prefer the sealed. I’d rather be able to flush any crap that may get in the joint out with fresh grease when it comes time to grease the chassis. Whenever i do an oil change the whole chassis is greased and the truck is thoroughly looked over as well.

I have a 2012 F350 and I can honestly tell you the only thing I’ve ever done to it besides oil changes and fuel filters is the vacuum pump and primary water pump. It even has the original brakes. I fixed both of those issues in my driveway for under $200. I think it depends on how well it was treated. At least you don’t have a Dodge because at 250,000 miles, you’d be on your 6 th transmission and 3rd set of body panels because they would have all rotted off.

@@quentonmillstid850 Dude I'm a Dodge and Ford guy and he's not wrong... I have owned several 1500s (and still currently own one) and a 2500 as well as own 95 Ford F-Super Duty Service Truck with a 7.3L and Dodge has terrible issues with rusting especially the beds over the rear wheels. Super common issue even if you don't live in the rust belt and god help you if you do happen to live where it snows a lot.. The motors literally outlive the body's on those trucks especially the Diesels. There's a reason a LOT of people are now swapping the Cummins engines over to really nice Ford body's especially ones with the 6.0L so they get the best of both worlds, a really good reliable engine that's piss easy to work on and a nice body and ride that wont rust to death. The transmission issues however in my personal experience with Dodge's its normally because when people pull loads they wont put the transmission into tow mode which will eat up the transmission. Also another huge issue with the 1500s is the 4.7L engine is one of the most garbage engines you can have the misfortune of having in any truck... They wont make it past 200K miles before they blow a head gasket or the cam eats its self up and you cant even rebuild them you have to just swap the engine out. Ford also has its issues especially the 6.0L Diesel, it's probably the worst Diesel engine ever created. And the F-150s with the 5.4L 3V are another one of Fords blunders that anyone who has the misfortune of buying one will be putting a $7K engine in every few years. Then you have GM which their biggest issue is they make them impossible to work on. GM Engineers would walk a mile through hot coals and broken glass just to screw a mechanic.

I see that you are getting a very loose inner hub bearing issue which is very common from 05 up to your truck, and I believe it goes a few years beyond that. There is a device that’s made to go into your ABS pug on the hub. Rift raft diesel performance makes a Zirk fitting attachment so you can keep lube up and keep intact. those bearings are non-serviceable. Cording to Ford will take it some buddy figured out a way to take care of that. Keep lube so they won’t fail.

I bought my 2013 Ram 2500 diesel Mega Cab Big Horn new out the door for $41K. It has 45,000 miles and garaged since new in GA. How much is it worth? Let the flaming begin.

Hey could you send me the link to the obd2 reader that you have?
I’ve worked on so many of these trucks, and I have to admit that these 6.7’s are awesome. The 2011-2012’s have slightly more issues than the 2013+, (turbo and valve body, upper oil pan gasket etc.) but they are awesome trucks. I have a buddy that bought one brand new in 2014 (2015 model), and he’s a hot shot trucker with 322k with the original U-joints. Also, that oil leak under the truck is from the upper oil pan. Look into it. Also, cummins and GM have the exact same amount of front end issues as the fords. It’s just normal wear and tear.
The upper oil pan gasket is a common leak point on those 6.7L engines. You guys should’ve done balljoints on the truck while you were that far deep into the axle just so you don’t have to do it a year or so later. I just recently rebuilt the entire front axle on my ‘99 F-350 with the 7.3L. Going to be doing front and rear driveshaft U-joints soon, they’re original with 155K on the odometer.

@@quentonmillstid850 Dude I'm a Dodge and Ford guy and he's not wrong... I have owned several 1500s (and still currently own one) and a 2500 as well as own 95 Ford F-Super Duty Service Truck with a 7.3L and Dodge has terrible issues with rusting especially the beds over the rear wheels. Super common issue even if you don't live in the rust belt and god help you if you do happen to live where it snows a lot.. The motors literally outlive the body's on those trucks especially the Diesels. There's a reason a LOT of people are now swapping the Cummins engines over to really nice Ford body's especially ones with the 6.0L so they get the best of both worlds, a really good reliable engine that's piss easy to work on and a nice body and ride that wont rust to death. The transmission issues however in my personal experience with Dodge's its normally because when people pull loads they wont put the transmission into tow mode which will eat up the transmission. Also another huge issue with the 1500s is the 4.7L engine is one of the most garbage engines you can have the misfortune of having in any truck... They wont make it past 200K miles before they blow a head gasket or the cam eats its self up and you cant even rebuild them you have to just swap the engine out. Ford also has its issues especially the 6.0L Diesel, it's probably the worst Diesel engine ever created. And the F-150s with the 5.4L 3V are another one of Fords blunders that anyone who has the misfortune of buying one will be putting a $7K engine in every few years. Then you have GM which their biggest issue is they make them impossible to work on. GM Engineers would walk a mile through hot coals and broken glass just to screw a mechanic.

I’m a duramax Cummins guy so we aren’t really use to blow by lol. I have a f550 work truck with 6.7. First time I pipe the oil cap when running it scared the shit out of me. That was awhile back and the truck still runs fine, still worried about it blowing up everyday I just can’t trust a ford diesel. Ford hasn’t figured out how to put spark plugs in gas engines or cross hatch the cylinders in the 6.7 so it doesn’t have enough blowby to fill your tire up. The guy should put a air chuck on the blow by tube, get some use out of it lol
Also a large seal driver set should cover that inner axle seal. Honestly I get H.F. Drivers or whatever Amazon offers 😂 They have some with 1” driving rod that pilots into the plate so you can fish it through the knuckle. Makes it a little easier keeping the seal concentric. But you got it in!!

Brand new before I had death wobble and shaking front end bad has 160k of the happiest truck moments

And Replace my sway bar end links with hein joints from PMF
Check the glow plug harness, my truck leaks a little from the glow plug harness o-rings.
These problems are minor LOL. I thought you were talking about the high pressure fuel pump or the turbo blowing up, or a glow plug tip breaking off and wrecking the motor, or what happened to the 2014 I just bought for $4000, 3 of the rocker arms on bank one have worn out and slipped off the valves, going to pull the head and see if the cam is wrecked. Only 200K on it but it may have not had enough oil changes
Left front locking hub assembly replaced at 37000 miles on a 2016 F 350
Never had a major problem with any of my diesel trucks repairs aren’t 10k unless u blow the motor like a front diff goes it’s 2k or a new drive shift is 500 and every 5k miles u only spend like 200 to keep it up to date on fluids
You guys are getting after the issues, that what you have to do. 👍
If it was worth it to Nick, then that's all that matters. That old 6.7 sounds excellent. Of all the Powerstrokes, my favorite was always the 7.3, but the 6.0s sound amazing in my humble opinion. Perhaps one day I'll own a Diesel pickup myself. Other than 15 years in law enforcement, I've been around Diesels; either working on them or driving them in the civilian world or military. Duramax would be my first pick though Maybe one day🤷♂️😁
Must have a pocket full of money to own a DIESEL pick-up.
I have 50,000 on my 21 GMC 2500 Crew. I drive from Clio to Macomb everyday to a Job Site that our Company has been at for several years now.
27k... actually in TODAY'S market. That's a good buy. Considering the price of a new truck. If you spend another 10k to go through and fix everything else you can find. Which sounds like plan... put it on your hoist and inspect it front to rear... set up with Mark at Kodiak and rebuild the transmission and transfer case... all seals... everything you will be at 37 to 40k and a new truck.... that's a savings. Worse case you discover bigger issues beyond that amount.. sell it. Jack the body up and drive a Duramax under it... 😎👍... Btw... how is your Dodge coming along ? You don't show it much. Same with your big Ford ? Looking forward to seeing what's next. 😎👍

$27k for a 12 year old, quarter million mile 3/4 ton truck from the salt belt? That seems like alot of dough for that seasoned vehicle. I bought my 2013 Ram 2500 diesel Mega Cab Big Horn new out the door for $41K. It has 45,000 miles and garaged since new in GA. How much is it worth? Let the flaming begin.
Why was the motor rebuilt? Everyone says these motors run forever but I keep seeing more and more with rebuilt motors
Ccv will cause a multitude of leaks in those. The vaccum pump bolts will also back out causing a leak all down the front of the engine that the fan will throw around. The ceramic bearings in that MY turbo will go bad along with glow plug tips breaking off into the head. All in all they are great truck and yes the blow by is 100% normal in those trucks

They did a recall on those plugs and updated them with newer ones
I own an 03 with the Dana 60 and iv replaced the seals on it but when they go bad it can happen but I've never had my steering wheel stick though both with bad u join and bad seal most likely it could be the wheel bearing or the hub lock itself causing the issue

@@TruckMaster also when replacing u joints I learned this the hard way the best ways the get those out is either with a hand held ball joint press or with a hydraulic press to get those out but I will agree they are a pain
You always lift a tuck with the lift beam as close to the front of the front door as possible

Please explain how that’s possible on this particular truck???
“Don’t sound like anything “ Because fords the front axle is not life until you engage four-wheel-drive
You guys can use the vice and a few sockets to push the u-joint apart.
it looks like not a good deal, I paid $17 thousand for my 2011 f350 6.7 SLT with 178xxx miles after ten thousand miles the only issue I had was a bad injector but other than that powerstrokes are great engines, I remember I Pulled the other day 15 thousand pounds with no problems.
Cummins is the way to go for diesel 😎
My old Powerstroke had the same issue, drove fine for years until I used 4 wheel drive then I had issues
I have Four Trucks three GM and one Ford with a 6.7 but it a 2020 the GMC are 14, 19, 21, and we we just sold a 5500 with the Detuned Duramax to a young man from Canada. That truck was a turd so it’s had to go. Now the 14 you and Matt worked on and the others three is all factory with Banks Plug and Play with no deletes at all that System is Awesome.
Look in the air intake pipe see if that cai did its job...
Don’t assume it’s upper oil Pan look at the bottom of the head could be injector seals in valve cover
your oil is coming from the upper oil pan, most leak due to the ccv blocking up
Anyone else notice the sparks on the brake line at 10:08? Lmao
All more reasons I will never ever sell my 2005 gmc 8.1L gasser. And will never buy a diesel ever again by any brand including Cummins. Diesels are nothing but endless money pits.
You guys definitely arent wrong about needing extra money when you buy a diesel😂. I was one of those dumb teens you were talking about who went out and bought a 2012 lml at 18 for my first vehicle. Just my first year in owning it, i spent $12k-$14k just fixing it. I had an aftermarket warranty, but they didnt give me a single dime, especially if it was dealing with emmissions since thats federal. Just lucky i had a great job.

Sounds like a good way to build character and not end up being a piece of shit. My guess is you have a strong worth ethic these days too, ya?
You roll the dice when you buy a used diesel and this guy lost . This can happen whether you buy a chevy, dodge or ford 🤷. Shit nowadays you role the dice when you buy and a new one but atleat you have a warranty to back you up .

That's a lot of money for a 13 year old truck. Especially with high miles and problems. But it is a beautiful truck.
I just noticed the truck has a lariat and king ranch badges. Which of the two are the real trim level?
Making a big deal out of a couple bad u-joints is silly ….pretty common with most any straight axle type rig! Looks like those joints were replaced before and owner failed to grease them at least a couple times a year..
My man with the excursion! I enjoy mine I’d love to see that thing on the channel!
I had a 2004 avalanche with 470k on it had original ujoints and shocks and ball joints explain that to me lol
I would never buy a Ford because they always have problems. My Dodge barely rarely has problems.
Hubs, junk ass knuckle seal pretty common not worse than any other brand imo probably better front end wise
Do u need to retune or upgrade anything to run a 64mm turbo i have a lly duramax studded built trans no lift pump yet nd efi live tune 5 switch

Yes you will need a retune with this setup
Fellas trust me that Wheel Bearing is bad
Ball joint may be seizing up.
I get what you’re saying to an extend about “do u want a payment and fix problems monthly” you drive your trucks like race cars, what do u expect
