FWIW, I've had excellent luck with Dorman trans parts (lead frame and pan).

In all seriousness, FlexTape up a pseudo-cover until you can find and install the correct part.

Over 100k "warranty" programs are like "over 65" whole life insurance offerings.... The only winner in 99% of cases is the offering seller.

And the damper!

There was a recent thread on Bronco6g about Carista. My take from tbe thread was: a) it offered more (re: Bronco) than it delivers (at least at this point) and b) stick with FORSCAN. https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/forscan-vs-carista.106745/

Yup. Victron for the win. The company does a pretty good job of lightening the wallet, too! But it is money well-spent.

When I was a wee lad, a new 2LT at my armored cavalry squadron (back in the early 80s), my troop commander had his officers always back in. The idea was to enforce the mentality that you did the hard part standing down so that you were ready to go heading out. It was a clever lesson about a...

Noco 2D. Have set one up on all my vehicles.

@RangerBill has the parts list spot-on in post #2. I had to buy a new rear bumper as well as my Ranger didn't come with the tow package and thus, didn't have the 2-inch receiver. I also had to buy a new rear trim panel b/c the clips broke when removing to do the bumper swap-out. Even with that...

Here's what helped me retain my sanity with TPMS issues on my Ranger and F-150. First, this $13 TPMS tool: Arozk TPMS19 TPMS Reset Tool Sensor Relearn Reset Tool for Ford Lincoln and Mazda Tire Pressure Monitor System Sensor Programming Training Activation Tool TPMS Trigger Tool Tire Sensors...

Congrats on the RRaptor! Great photo comparing the height difference and how much the front has changed (5g to 6g). Not entirely a fan of the 6g, but in the Raptor version it's pretty nice. Now if Ford brought the Everest to the US..., I'd be ordering it one second after the order banks...

This is what I did. Got an OEM rim to match the other four, mounted that tire on the new rim (it was identical to the other four), had a TPMS sensor installed, balanced rim/tire, relearned the TPMS, and added it to the tire rotation. So now I have a five tire rotation instead of four. To me, it...

FYI, if you are talking about this: https://www.bulletpointmountingsolutions.com/products/bulletpoint-wireless-phone-charger-with-motorized-cradle ... be aware Bulletpoint changed the design from the really nice Gen 1 to this less nice Gen 2. I have both and while both charge the same the...

Can we see pictures of both? Tops and bottoms? Thanks.

As much as I love(d) NH when I was a resident, it's car-related stuff could get weird. I'm guessing it's probably gotten weirder (the kindest word I can think of) since the southern half of the state (where my family and I hailed from since before the Civil War) has been inundated by unhelpful...

I agree. It was nonsense in the literal meaning of the word. Click bait, even. Sometimes I think the writers at FA have it in for Ford. They too frequently seem to come across as anti-management (b/c they seem very pro-UAW). Often seem like biting the hand that feeds them. On the other hand...

Not adding anything constructive to the thread, but this thread has been a GREAT read. Great job with the build, @XionUAV! Clearly, quality is Job 1!

My wife is still angry at me for trading in the Aerostar! Her absolutely favorite vehicle (especially appreciated the AWD feature as we had it while stationed over in southern Germany). Whoda thunk that? That an Aerostar would be one of our all-time faves?

Given all the work Mike has put in to produce the awesome FitzStick to save our transmissions, this situation is sadly and painfully and "unfunnyily" ironic. Hope all goes well, Fitz!

I went a similar route. Used this mesh from Amazon: 6 Pack 12×8 Inch Wire Mesh Screen, 20 Mesh Stainless Steel Mesh, Sturdy No Rust Metal Mesh Screen for DIY Projects, Cage, Vent, Garden, Window Screen, Filter Mesh https://a.co/d/6vf45LL Cut a sheet into a trapezoid shape and hand bent as best...
