2002 F350, Help with a couple of issues.
Hello all,
So I just got a 2002 F350 Powerstroke. Yeah it is not perfect and does have a few issues I've got to address. 1st off the front wheels are **** eyed I take it I've got to replace the ball joints to correct this issue?
The other issue is my heater, I'm pretty sure the heater core has got a leak...because after I bought the truck the hoses to the heater core where both disconnected. Anyone got a pic or diagram of how both these hoses are supposed to be connected?
This truck also has the stock muffler on it. Wanted to open it up and put a straight through down pipe I guess their called. Can I do this straight up, or does it need to have a chip/tuner too to make it work correctly with the removal of the stock muffler?
Thanks in advance.

your best bet on the exaust get a turbo back exaust you can get complete for like 250-400 bucks, the heaters should only fit one way one in front of the pass side head mid way down and then one on top of the water pump ill try to grab a look later when i get to my truck and let you know top or bottom for the wp one on the firewall

Thanks for the reply..
The heater hoses are attached to the heater core, just need to know where the other side of the two hoses go attached to the engine. A diagram or pic would be helpful.
Also someone mentioned to me that if I just replace the exhaust (turbo back) only it would not function right because of the reduced back pressure. They stated that I would need a chip to have it work correctly. I'm assuming it would cause some kind of damage to the engine if I did not add the chip also?
Thanks again
