Limped in to local Ford dealer. They said there diesel guy is on light duty and they are very busy.Might be able to look at it in 2- 3 days.

Generally speaking the low side will be 35-45 psi and high side 150-200. That said the best way is to evacuate the system and weigh in the correct amount usally stated on the sticker under the hood.Re: front sway bar bushingGot mine at napa.
