1999 Ford Questions and Answers

• Will 20K Reese Fifth Wheel Hitch Work On Rails In Bed Of 1999 Ford Super Duty Truck Bed
  
• The Reese fifth wheel hitch # RP30867, will work with industry-standard, above-bed rails made by Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Pro Series, Reese, and Valley. If the rails you have in your truck are standard rails then this hitch will work for you. I have attached a photo with the attach point dimensions you can check out to make sure the hitch will work in your rails. For a 1999 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty, you can use a universal rail kit like part # RP30035. For custom brackets...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 1999 Ford F-250 with 7.3 Diesel
  
• Transmission coolers are universal fit items. What you will need to do is find out how much room you have to work with in front of your radiator and find a transmission cooler that will fit your application. Choosing the largest available cooler like Derale Series 8000 Transmission Cooler Kit, part # D13504, is a good choice, because you cannot over-cool a transmission. I attached an FAQ article on transmission coolers for you to check out also.

• Multipurpose Ball Mount Recommendation to Tow a Boat and Carry a Scooter
  
• I have a solution for you, but the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4 that you referenced is only designed for flat towing vehicles so I cannot recommend it for you. Instead you would want the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount part # D210. This will let you tow your boat with the ball mount and then use a carrier on the top hitch opening. The unit itself has a 7,500 lb towing and 750 lb tongue weight capacity while the top receiver has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity.

• Troubleshooting Erratic Trailer Braking On 1999 Ford E-350 Van
  
• I have attached a helpful article that explains how to troubleshoot a brake controller. If you have to use the manual switch on the brake controller, you could have a bad stoplight connection or the adapter wiring does not match the vehicle OEM connector on your 1999 Ford E-350. If the brakes are too aggressive, the brake assemblies may need to be adjusted or the boost and or gain is set too high on the controller. You want to make sure the brake controller is level and not tilted or...

• Comparing Andersen Ultimate Connection and Draw-Tite Hi-Rise Adapters for a 1999 Ford F-350 Long Bed
  
• The Draw-Tite Hi-Rise adapter, # 9480, is going to provide a better ride and overall more secure connection compared to the Andersen Ultimate Connection # AM3225. Since you have a a Hide-A-Goose, # 9460-48, on your 1999 Ford F-350 long bed, the Hi-Rise will be a great fit. The Hi-Rise is heavier at 185 pounds shipping weight compared to the Andersen adapter at 86 pounds shipping weight so the Andersen adapter would be easier to install and remove compared to the Hi-Rise. Both adapters...

• Anti-Sway And Steering Stabilizer Recommendations On 1999 Fourwinds Motorhome With F-53 Frame
  
• I spoke with my contact at Roadmaster and they told me that there would be no problem using an anti-sway stabilizer in tandem with a steering stabilizer. They told me that normally to notice the biggest difference in the handling of your 1999 Fourwinds with the Ford F-53 frame, rear anti-sway is recommended. They also said that using all of these items together will help overall performance. I recommend the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bars, part # RM-1139-143. This attaches to the rear of...

• High Capacity Hitch Recommendation for a 1999 Super Duty Diesel Van with Step Bumper
  
• The Draw Tite Hitch part # 41906 that you referenced would be an excellent hitch for your 1999 Ford Super Duty van with a step bumper. I checked with Draw Tite and it is compatible. While this is a Class IV hitch it does have impressive capacities: Maximum gross trailer weight: 10,000 lbs Maximum GTW when used with weight distribution: 12,000 lbs Maximum tongue weight: 1,000 lbs Maximum TW when used with weight distribution: 1,200 lbs I attached an install video for you to check...

• Front Axle Stabilizer for a 1999 Fourwinds Infinity on a Ford F53 Chassis
  
• Blue Ox does make a great product but Roadmaster's stuff works well so I would go with it, save some money, and maybe look into putting some of that back into stabilizing the rear end as well. So for the front axle use the Roadmaster TruTrac, # RM-TRACV-10B. For the rear you can upgrade the factory sway-bar bushings with kit # RM-4139-125. Upgrading just the bushings will also help provide a more stable ride compared to the stock bushings. I have included a link to our help article...

• Will the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-155 Fit 1999 Ford F350 Dually with Factory Bar
  
• I spoke with my contact at Roadmaster and yes, the Front Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1139-155, will fit your 1999 F350 Dually with factory bar. The 1999 model was excluded if a factory bar isn't present.

• Towing Clearance Between 5th Wheel Trailer and the Back of a 1998 Ford F-250 Short Bed
  
• I have included a picture that should help. When the trailer is coupled to the truck there should be 16 to 24 inches between the bumper of the truck and the trailer. If you are at the lower end of the range or just want peace of mind that clearance will not be an issue at the back of the truck I recommend an adapter with an offset, # AM3139, which has 8 inches of offset. An offset adapter like the Ranch Hitch listed above will provide more clearance between the truck bumper and the trailer...

• Programmer and Monitor Recommendation for a 1999 Ford F250 5.4 Liter Triton V8
  
• The correct programmer and monitor for your 1999 Ford F240 with a 5.4 liter V8 is the Edge Evolution CS Programmer # EP85150. And yes, this will work on the standard transmission models like yours. The Edge CTS Insight Monitor part # EP83830 is only a monitor and will not give you any performance gains. It will only allow you view engine parameters.

• What Hitch Allows Use of Extender to Clear Rear of Slide-In Camper in 1999 Ford F-350
  
• It sounds like you need about 3-feet of additional length from your hitch to clear the back of your slide-in camper. There is a product to do this but it requires a specific brand of hitch; the Curt Class V hitch you referenced, part # C15410 is not suitable for this application. If your F-350 has a standard or step bumper you can use TorkLift Trailer Hitch # TLF1002M which is a dual-receiver Class V design. With this you can use the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension # TLE1536 that...

• Hitch Recommendation for a 1999 Ford Windstar Towing a Aluminum Boat and Trailer
  
• The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 36189 that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 1999 Ford Windstar. It will work and be compatible with the rear heat and AC lines that are present at the rear of your vehicle. This hitch has towing capacities of 3,500 lbs total trailer weight and 300 lbs tongue weight. If the weight of your boat and trailer are under these figures then this hitch would have the capacity needed. I wasn't able to determine the towing capacities for...

• Weight Distribution for a 1999 Ford F-150 and 2012 Skyline Layton 186 Travel Trailer
  
• To choose a weight distribution system you will need to go by the total tongue weight of the set up. This is calculated by taking the tongue weight of the trailer, when loaded and ready to tow, and adding to that the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. If 325 pounds is the unloaded tongue weight then loaded at a weight of 3,200 pounds would put the tongue weight around 430 pounds. A system rated for 550 pounds such as # PS49901 would work well. I looked...

• Recommended Adapter For Towing Fifth Wheel With 1999 Ford F-350 4 X 4 Flatbed Truck
  
• When we find customers wanting to tow a fifth wheel with a truck that has a flatbed like your 1999 Ford F-350, it can cause real problems trying to solve the issue because flat beds are typically taller than a standard bed. I have a co worker here who has a similar setup and said most fifth wheel hitches will not work for the reason you are saying and also due to the frame of the truck making it impossible to attach the rails as they are designed to be installed. I recommend using a...

• Front Mount Trailer Hitch and Light Bar Recommendation for a 1999 Ford F-250
  
• The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch, # 31114, that you referenced will fit your 1999 Ford F-250. If you have OEM fog lights, they must be removed because they will interfere with the front mount hitch. All of the light bars we offer for your 1999 F-250 are roof mounted light bars like part # CARR210701. The Gutterless Mount Kit, # CARR220052, is also required to mount a light bar to your truck. I have attached a link to all of the light bars we offer for your truck as well as a link...

• Will Kenda Loadstar ST205/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST92 Fit 15 x 7-Inch Rims
  
• The Kenda Loadstar ST205/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST92 that you referenced will fit 15-inch rims of 5, 5-1/2, 6 and 6-1/2-inches width. They will not fit a 7-inch-wide rim. For your 7-inch-wide rims you will need a tire in the ST225/75R15 size such as # AM10251. This tire is also Load Range C-rated but is a radial with a higher 2150-lb maximum load capacity at the same 50-psi pressure. For reference I have linked two helpful articles on trailer tires.

The hub/drum assembly you referenced, Dexter # 84546UC3-EZ, will work with these brake assemblies and as long as the included bearings match your current ones they will fit your spindles. We do offer lug nut caps but only for large dually wheels.

• Should the Tekonsha Voyager Light Up if No Trailer Is Connected
  
• Without a trailer connector there should be no light on the Voyager brake controller # 39510. When a trailer is connected the light should turn green. And when the controller is applying the trailer brakes you should see a shade of orange. If you think there is something wrong with your controller you can use the two articles I have linked on testing and troubleshooting brake controllers.

• Troubleshooting a Draw-Tite Activator II Trailer Brake Controller Only Works with Manual Override
  
• So you have isolated the problem to the wiring of your 1999 Ford F250. If the manual lever works but the brake pedal does not that means the problem is in the stop light circuit. You will want to check to make sure the red wire of the controller is securely attached to a circuit that sees voltage when the brakes are applied and none when not applied. If that still does not fix the problem you will want to go over the rest of the wiring looking for anything not installed correctly. Most...

• Converting 4/6-Way Factory Connector on 1999 Ford F-350 SD to a 7-Way RV-Style Connector
  
• You identified the correct harness to convert your 1999 Ford F-350 SD from a 4/6-way trailer connector to the more common RV-style 7-way blade type. Part # C55243 will plug in to a square OEM connector along the driver's-side frame rail. You may want to use metal 7-way mounting bracket # PK12711U to simplify installation. The linked photo will show you the type of connector you are looking for under the frame.

• Is Adapter Available For 1999 Holiday Rambler On Ford Chassis
  
• I was unable to find information about your 1999 Holiday Rambler wiring. I recommend contacting a Holiday Rambler dealer and checking the owners manual to determine if there is a plug for a brake controller. If there is no plug or tow package wiring, you will need to hardwire in your brake controller by using a part # ETBC7 kit, and another 20 feet of part # 10-2-1 wire. If you have a 7-Way plug, you can use about 40 feet of # 10-2-1 wire and a 30 amp circuit breaker, # PK54530. When...

• Troubleshooting Hayes Micro Control Brake Controller Installed on 1999 Ford F250
  
• I'd begin by using a circuit tester like part # 40376 on the red wire exiting the rear of the controller. See of you get any current on that wire when the brake pedal is pressed. If you don't get signal, you probably have a blown fuse or relay. Typically, the red brake controller wire is tied in with the third stoplight on the rear of the vehicle, so if that fuse is blown, you won't get trailer braking with the brake pedal. If you do get a signal on that wire, check its connection at...

• Recommendations for Preventing a 1999 Ford F250 Powerstroke Transmission from Overheating
  
• Fluid coming out of the transmission dipstick tube is usually a sign of severe overheating. A transmission cooler will help a ton to prevent this from happening again, but you might take your truck to a transmission shop to make sure you didn't damage anything in your transmission as heat is the number one killer of transmissions. For your truck the most popular upgrade for a transmission cooler is to go to the 6.0 liter generation Powerstroke's transmission cooler. I wish we carried...

• Why is the Ride in the Back Seat of an F-550 So Rough, and is There Anything That Makes it Smoother
  
• The crazy rough bouncing of the rear suspension is due to the very high spring rate of the rear suspension. The very high towing capacity of your early model F550 is kind of a double edged sword in that you have the ability to tow way more weight than almost any other vehicle on the road, but the suspension is so stiff that when you hit a bump you really feel it. The rear suspension of your truck was not designed for comfort, it was only designed for carrying a lot of weight. When your...
