So I just picked up a set of dick cepek dc-2's for my 07 super cap. I want to keep my stock wheels for the winter, so if I buy a set of used sensors and new bands and mounting hardware for the new wheels will they work?...I heard as long as they are ford they will work, then i heard the dealer has to initialize them...I figure someone has done this...I just want to know what I need before I order the wrong thing.

Take the stock ones (or spares), stick them in PVC pipe with a cap at both ends, and attach a Schrader valve and inflate to 35psi, toss it under your seat. Fools the truck

Yeah buy the new sensors. And buy the remote to activate them. There like 30
Bucks. So when u switch. Just program them. It's easy. Let me know if u have questions.

Yup. Friend's Chevy van kept giving him lights, warnings, etc. So I fabbed up the pipe, threw in the sensors and glued it shut. Inflate to 35 and fuggedaboutit. (Note: Write on the PVC what it is less you throw it away or getting searched by the police) Originally Posted by Joe Grasso

Thanks Alfie...didn't know anything about a remote or activating them...so my plan is to buy for used but working sensors from a buddy...when I get them I will have questions for sure.

Yeah no problem. To get the truck to activate its a matter of cycle the key and hitting the brake pedal. Easy man.
