After many years of saving and searching, I finally found my dream truck. I just picked up a 93 F350 crew cab with a 7.3 and love the truck. I am having an issue with my the caliber pins falling out though. Wondering if any one on here has had this issue and has any tips. I have tried bending the tips out and still had one fall out. Appreciate any help on this issue. Keith

 

my 1993 E 350 has 2 bolts that screw in .

 

If it has the springs that hold the caliper in place, go purchase a new set. That will give you more tension on the locking pins.

 

I replaced the springs but the calipers and mounting bracket are worn as the truck has 244 thousand miles. I just tried some blue Loctite silicone and it seems to be working. I heard I can update the front ball joint and calipers to the later 93/94 model and then I will have bolts instead of these goofy slide pins. Might try to find some at a wrecker in the summer. I also heard that I can get oversized pins but have had no luck locating any. If anyone know where I can find some I would appreciate it. Thanks
