    I am male. :). And yeah I could probably figure something out with the plate but cops haven't bothered me yet. I probably should have got @Sub-Zero to weld license plate tabs onto it.

    Spindle looks fine. Hiw you managed to get the bearing race stuck inside the spindle is beyond me. That is insude the gub assembly typically.

    I say rent a ball joint press from autozone with all the kits/sizes and press it out. Probably the safest bet without damage. Hard part will be finding the size to match.

    Erica?

    Yes, but not judging. He/She is okay with me either way:thumbsup:

    Fresh hacksaw blade in there and cut through it and it will drop right out.

    I'm a glass half empty kind of guy.

    Alright, so it's finally dark enough so I went to go test out my lights. Now, for some reason they will only turn on when all of my headlights, etc are off. I wired them into existing wiring where I had two IPF lights before and they worked with the headlights. I'm 99% sure I wired these direct from lights - battery - relay - fuse - switch so the headlights should have nothing to do with these. Any ideas?

    No, I know. Not trying to sound like a dick. So stupid question. The wires on the lights were blue / white IIRC. So naturally I connected black to blue and white to white. If I reversed it because wrong color wires were used initially, wouldn't the lights either pop the fuse or just not work at all?

    Think I found the issue. But not sure how to fix it. The taped off wire with the arrow pointing to it looks like it's grounded in the fuse box. The wire it's attached to is the fuse itself. Thoughts?

    You did this yourself didn't you? How about redoing the wiring direct to battery and then to switch to remove any interference from shit out of the equation. Ill bet you crossed a wire somewhere... when I installed foglights on my truck if I left the switch on they would turn on and off randomly. No clue how or why. It was jumped into a fuse in that same box. I have since just snipped those wires and the foglights are just filling a hole.

    No, for the initial job I brought it to a place in Bensalem that does all the customer work for Ford dealers. Admittedly I'm not impressed. I don't want to take it apart because the shit worked before. And now I found a wire that goes nowhere so I'm trying to start there first.

    Easier to just redo it. Won't take long. Fuck trying to figure out what someone else tried to do. Rip it out and redo it. Often what I do at work. Also why I can't let someone work on my truck

    Ok I'll take a look tomorrow. Since there's two relays one should be right at least. I'll compare the two and take it from there.
