Thx for the reminder. Somewhere I have saved a parts list for all of the replaceable parts that go into this swap. Will hit up @LevittownFordParts.com when the time comes.
Howdy. Pricing out replacing all four corners with new coilovers and shocks on my fx4. Local 4x4 shop is quoting 5 hours labor, which seems a bit high based on what I've seen here. Does not include alignment or adjusting headlights (1hr for the headlights prob will do that myself).
The shop...
I've had my Fx4 truck 9 months now and am looking at upgrading the suspension. I've seen hints about that impacting the warranty, wasn't sure how likely that might be and if I should factor that into the equation.
Would an upgrade and 2" level be a potential reason for Ford to deny a drive...
How do I switch over to the touchscreen when I’m connected to CarPlay? I typically listen to the radio and use CarPlay for navigation apps. Sometimes I want to access the touchscreen and the only way I know how is to disconnect the usb cable from the phone.
There has to be a better way, right?
Am in Austin and looking at these. Am new to 4x4s, how do these compare to eibachs or Bilsteins? Was headed that direction to improve the ride but these look good too.
2022 Lariat Fx4 owner. Long post, laying some groundwork.
I've been lurking/researching all of these suspension threads. I dislike the spongy feel of the ride. 98% of my driving is city/pavement but I have some off-road at my deer lease and other hunting areas and also want to do some camping...
This is an inspirational thread for me, one of the things I wanna do with my Ranger is head down to South Padre Island National Seashore. 60 miles of beach you can drive on. I'm a little scared to try it on my own but am learning and planning.
Hey! I'm looking into the options for replacing the jouncy crappy fx4 shocks and struts. I don't do a ton of off-roading but it comes in handy at my deer lease. I'd level it out a bit and call it a day. Prob go w the eibachs or bilsteins. Do you have a 4x4 shop you'd recommend? I'm just starting...
I need some absolution! I feel bad for such a dumb thing to do. Wouldn't hurt to drive out to the deer lease this weekend, maybe I should put up some of my game cameras.
I'm a dumb ass...
I grabbed a 15 bag of ice from the little kiosk last night, was talking on the phone with the Mom and absentmindedly forgot about it until this morning. I have a SCREW, w leather seats. My driveway is angled and most of the water ended up in the passenger side back corner...
Nice. I was looking at their maps today wondering what I could do with my stock fx4 out there. I’ve never done any off reading really, just some ranch two tracks With some hills and limestone.
prob would stick to the 2 diamond trails and see how el Trucke manages. Better to be safe than sorry...
What about a day trip to one of the central Texas off road parks? We could have a mini Ranger GTG. I’ve never done much off roading, might be fun with a lower time commitment. I think there’s one out towards Bastrop and there’s that one out 1431 towards Marble Falls.
just an idea
Completed my initial list of mods/add-ons for El Trucke today with the addition of the Line-X bed liner. Factory was gonna add time for the delivery so I deleted it before I got the VIN. The shop i went to did a great job, no over spray or clogged threads on open mounting points.
