Driving our 99 F250 7.3 auto in Baja New Years 2020

Quick sorta raw unedited video of our family trip to Baja. This is somewhere between Santa Rosaliita and El Marron on the Pacific side.

NOTE: Most of the times I slow down going up hill - is because the road has disappeared below the top of the hood. Camera is on the roof and has a much better view of the road than I did in the drivers seat.

Love Baja, we enjoyed the time between Christmas and New Years even with some rain, beach exploring is always a good time

When we got home found that the power steering gearbox was done as it empties itself on the driveway. But it does have 265,000 miles on it.
Also the front shocks are blown but they were not the best for Baja driving.

Also brought home some property from Baja - dirt.

Fixed the leaking power steering box with a new 2008 F350 RED HEAD steering Gear.

Had to change out my 1999 2WD front suspension to a 2008 F350 Dana 60 front axle to get it hooked up though.......

And then drove it!
