  1. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    That would be the stock dipstick, you just have to crawl under it or have it up on a hoist, then stay clear of the hot exhaust. If you have to add fluid or service the transmission, up on a rack or jack stands makes it much easier. I will add, if it is up on a rack to make sure it's level, I...
  2. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    I always recommend checking it hot just like the factory, but, like ctechbob said that just below 5 idling in park cold will be in the proper range hot.
  3. The new rangers have a cover/insulator over the high pressure fuel pump.

    Hard to say what the foam did, I went from no bracket to bracket with foam. What does not make sense, Ford should be able to either tune out the noise through pump valve timing and bypass relief settings, or with lifter lash and cam lobe profile. At Honda Racing we used two DI pumps per...
  4. The new rangers have a cover/insulator over the high pressure fuel pump.

    Removing the bracket does reduce the noise a little, I drove around for a while without it, but being a safety item, I was compelled to put it back on, although, I thought if I am in such a bad accident I need the pump protection, I got big problems anyways. I did put a layer of dense closed...
  5. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    That is exactly what started all of this, I'm behind, but I am working on ramping up production on other models!
  6. Dipstick from F-150 with 10R80?

    I am working on one for the F150, actually it will end up being four of them, 2.7, 3.0, 3.5 and 5.0 are the ones I've had requests for!
  7. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Ha, not quite like a vacation, but I've been very busy, I am taking steps to be able to spend more time on other models! So no update yet, but really getting closer!
  8. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    Good video, really informative, Thanks!
  9. Larger Tires on Stock Tremor Wheels w/o lift or spacers

    I put 275/70/17 on a stock height Tremor and it is fine, barely touches the crash bars on the front at full compression with the wheel turned, I mean just polishes the powder coating, not even rubs it off. I did have to remove the plastic covers though. I loosened the crash bar bolts and rapped...
  10. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    I had to push the Bronco to the side for now, it is going to be more difficult to make than the Ranger, it will also require a quick disconnect type of coupler at the transmission, as there is no way the average person would be able to thread the hose onto the trans fitting, even a skilled tech...

    That's a tough question, which engine? But yes, I was working on that project today!
  12. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    As of August 2025 the price is going up $10, this is to prepare for the coming tariffs, they will now be $189.00, as it is, I only have enough materials to make about 150 more dipsticks, the components to build the next round of dipsticks will be subject to heavy tariffs. I wish it didn't have...
  13. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Uh... It's down the list a bit! I have at least a dozen different models/engines that need a dipstick first :LOL:
  14. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    ABS does not like brake clean, which is usually Acetone, it should be fine! It's just a bit ugly looking.
  15. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Not yet, but it's on the to do list. Thanks for asking!
  16. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Yes, I did a final fit on the top bracket recently, it's back to the model for a rework, I have to adjust the manifold pad angle a little bit. Don't get too excited, it's going to be a tough install when I get it done, or I will have to use a quick release type of connection at the trans, which...
  17. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Unfortunately not, but I do plan on expanding to that model!
  18. Quarts of ULV per Fitzstick Graduation?

    Wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a beautiful calculation...., but wait, the pan is full of valve body as well, there is more valve body in a stock pan than...
  19. Quarts of ULV per Fitzstick Graduation?

    Yes, the question about fluid per hash mark, interesting one to answer, I tried to get a accurate number, I'm guessing the variance is the internal shape of the transmission, each full number step hash mark seemed to be a little different volume. It is about only 6-8 oz between each number, the...
