V3.0 = my third Msfitoy project...

This is the last time you'll see her in stock form:giggle:

Tomorrow, we're headed out to mount the new wheels and tires...though, I need to coat the calipers first and modify the offset crash bars before the new set goes on...then the Raptor counterfeit grill installed along with MBRP cat back and GFB Diverter...after that, hopefully the new Eibach Pro Truck suspension will show up soon...this mock up is just to get me by for today...

Mission accomplished...MBS remote transmission dip stick is a total successful installation...asides from dropping and loosing the M6 bolt, everything else went without much of hitch...I am very impressed with how MBS managed to engineer every bend to within such good tolerance without having the vehicle apart...I can appreciate the hours and hours of trial and error it took to get here...well done Mike @Fitzmotor 👍

It never stops, does it?

Sid, I like how your afePower Magnum air scoop matches your battery terminal cover. 😀 But, then, I’m biased…

I wanted black but Brandon (@dondonbabyraptor ) convinced me to go with red for that very reason. 😃

Well I pretty much ran out of play money after the last mod...you know...the one that costed me complete tranny replacement...I'm hoping this dipstick mod will better help with monitoring the actual fluid level during full operating temps...

That was definitely a pricey mod Sid but just think, 95k more trouble free miles. :wink:

It seems like a very useful aftermarket product, especially when some of the Ford dealerships have told owners there is no way to check the transmission fluid level, even though there is but it’s such a PITA to do on your own. This will help. 👍

I've never done a full temp forearm burn check...it was hard enough to do a cold running check...thank God for this new product...now I can be confident in checking the level without crawling under a HOT RUNNING TRUCK!!!!
