I do need to hose out the hinges if I get gravel in them. That and a spray of lube is all that they have needed so far. They do carry some mud from the front tires, but overall I like them though that truck doesn't go off road stump jumping like my old ones back in my youth and it doesn't see much winter back home in the garage.


I had a 150 Platuim too, they worked, but are not designed for longevity. Got rid of the Platinum as soon as the warrantee expired. 10 adjustment power seat died, center console bust, hung in 2nd gear underload and the tech was not upgradable. Got a plain Jane 250 Lariat diesel never going back to Platinum fords.....wife may.....not me tho
