This guide will be similar to all F-150's (and other Ford vehicles like the Expedition and Lincoln Navigator) ranging from 2004 to 2020. Overall the process will be very similar.

Nice work. Did mine exactly the same way. It’s almost preventive maintenance as they get so brittle over time.

@TrickShiftGarage 4 ай бұрын

Agreed! And once a part of it breaks, you pretty much have to replace the whole thing anyway. So might as well prevent it from happening. 🤟

Where can I find one for my Ford f-150 5.4 liter because I couldn't find one at no part stores in Memphis

@TrickShiftGarage Ай бұрын

You have to go to a Ford Dealer. You really don't want to buy aftermarket vacuum lines because they will break even easier. You want OEM.

Hey man, did you check your lines? Are they good?

@hcfirefighter82 6 күн бұрын

Doing this on a 2013 Navigator. Is this possible as to why my ac stopped working as soon as this started leaking? Also, do I have to get the lines from the dealer? Thanks!

@TrickShiftGarage 6 күн бұрын

So, I don't think this would have an impact on your AC to be completely honest. And I would definitely get OEM lines or else you may have more issues down the road. Doesn't have to be from a Ford Dealer, but make sure it's a genuine Ford part.

@jasoncharles6980 4 ай бұрын

Completely different topic - have you tackled your transmission cooler lines yet? I have the same truck and from everything I’m seeing on KZfaq those lines are a ticking time bomb as they age and should be proactively replaced.

@TrickShiftGarage 4 ай бұрын

No not yet, I do plan on doing it because I know it's a big problem on these trucks. But mine look perfect without any rust on them. So I'm debating on whether or not I should spend the money on new lines so I can get a video out of it, or wait it out. If I end up keeping this truck, then I will definitely replace them. But I'm considering trading it in at some point later this year to get a newer F150 (2018-2020 preferably). We will see!

Stopped at my ford dealer to see if i could get this harnes for my 2015 and they wanted to sale me individual lines. So where did you buy your harness.

@TrickShiftGarage 4 ай бұрын

You may want to try a different dealer. I got mine from Plaza Ford in Bel Air Maryland without issue. How many individual lines were they trying to sell you?

Damn bro, I think my 4x4 vacuum line has a break somewhere. I think it’s engaging the 4x4 when I’m driving. I’ve broke cv axel on right side twice. Thoughts? My mechanic thinks it’s running lean cause of the throttle body is bad. I think it’s vacuum

@TrickShiftGarage Ай бұрын

If it's periodically engaging 4x4, then it's probably the IWE's or the IWE Check Valve. If one of your wheels is always stuck in 4x4, then it could be the vacuum line connecting to that wheel.

@@TrickShiftGarageI’m getting my IWE lines done today . After this hopefully I don’t get the check 4x4 no more . For myn it does the grinding a little bit.
