Okay, first let me thank everyone that helped me brain storm this problem. I was not sure why the ST was shut down. I thought that it might be the anti theft device, but guess what? This morning I called AAA and got a boost and the thing started right up. Todd your suggestion was my first...

I will let you know how this turns out when I check the battery in the morning. As I think about it, I think you may be right about the battery. Thanks for your help.

I will check the battery in the morning, but it is fairly new still. I never had any kind of battery problem before this.

Thanks for your speedy response. It looks like I may be stuck and have to get it to the dealer. It's not an after market alarm, but it seems to be malfunctioning. I left the key in the ignition and although it should not have locked it did. When I tried to punch in the code several times it...

Does anyone know how to reset the factory alarm system on my 2001 ST? I put the wrong code several times and now the truck is totally shut down. I tried inserting the main key in the driver side door but that did not work the truck is not reseting. Thanks for your help.

Hello everyone, I had to come back and let you know the results of my dealing with the tire size issue. I have 265/75/r/16 on both the back and front. It really looks nice on the truck, however, they rub. I tried the 1.25 spacers and found that the truck shuttered on the highway at high...

Yes, this does help. I am going to look into 255/75/16. It is either this or install spacers that will eliminate the problem. I think.

Thanks everyone good responses and information. I found out that I can use spacers that will push it out the tire a bit stopping the rubbing and increasing the turning range. I think however, that I may just give in and scale down back to the stock size tires.

Does any one know what is the rule of thum for chosing tire size. I know the comments about keeping the stock size intended, so just skip that comment. I have 265 75r16 and they seem to be rubbing. I bought the truck with these tires. I really like the way they look but it looks like I...

It seems to be all the time. I would almost believe the dealer that this is normal, but I never heard of such a thing.

Mine is a 4x4. I have not tried spinning the tire by hand. That is a good idea. I will give it a try this weekend. The ford dealer told me there is nothing wrong and that this is normal for this year truck, but that just doesn't sound right.

I resently bought a 2001 ST. I am very please with it except for a constant rubbing like noise from the left front end. Could this be the vibration that is common for these vehicles? My first guess would have been that it is the bearings. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in...
