    Air bags and tires.

    I have had two fords a 2000 f350 and a 2008 f450 both had problems around the 60k mile mark with tires. Both time it was the ball joints. Those had the non greaseable type joints. I'm not sure what the 2012 has. Just as a note if you replace them I tried the moog joints and didn't like them the...

    I have an extended warranty, the tow truck driver said they could have towed both if they lifted the ford, your right the kelderman won't transfer.
