Bilstein son the front also? You replaced springs?

These are off my 2020 FX2 extended cab with only 17,000 miles. Truck only sees summer time duty. Half those miles have been pulling a 1,000 pound pop up camper. Replaced them with Bilstein 4600 series. After seeing what crap the rears are, I now want to do the fronts… You could hear fluid in...

White is the butyl tape..:I didn’t have any black. Used stainless 1/4-20 bolts with fender washers in place of plastic rivits. Sealant under the fender washers. Ran flex seal tape from top side, underneath hood gasket down across the split to over the center hardware. Used weather strip adhesive...

missed a decimal point...its actually 2.0-3.0 degrees. Goin on memory I'm almost 2 feet of drop in a 40 foot run.

I saw that path also...I figure that is Fords answer to water accumulation in the valve cover valley. All fine and dandy if the rear of the motor is pointed slighty downhill. Knowing Ford, I wouldn't be surprised if there was something in the owners manual telling you not to park it nose down...

I keep the vents clean and do not go thru automatic car washes. My truck is parked nose down on a sloped driveway (~2-3 degrees). With an all-day rain, the slow drip like in the other video fills the valley in the valve cover. Since my truck is nose down the water runs to the front and pools...

My truck is parked nose down in my driveway so the water collects in the valley of the valve cover, runs past all the vanes sticking up to the front where it has nowhere to escape and then pools up where I have circled and invades the front plug via the poor seal between the coil and valve cover.

I sealed mine into submission yesterday. Removed the foam gasket tape and used Butyl tape between the cowl and the cowl grill. Used stainless harware instead of the push rivits to get a good squeeze on the butyl tape. Also used weather strip adhesive to glue the hood gasket to the plastic...

Water I got last night….

As I have access to a sheet metal shop…I’m making one of those if my butyl take/ bolt down/ seal the split approach does not work.

Yes I am. Then bolt it down instead of using the plastic rivits. Ask any RVer… butyl tape works wonders. Butyl rubber caulk is awesome also but not something you find at a basic hardware store. It’s used to seal in commercial window systems and flashing. Don’t get it on you because it is super...

Did the same investigation last night and started a thread. The split location and middle fastener is defeating the cheap ass foam gasket tape between the metal cowl and plastic cover. From looking at it, Ford doesn’t have a lot of holes in the passenger side plastic cowl cover because that is...

It’s the cheap ass foam gasket tape where the split is. Soaks up water..:then bleeds at the split and the fastener. You Can see water staining on metal where water has come out of foam gasket and around the fastener hole at the split. Foam tapes and plastic push rivits are used for speed of...

The plastic cowl covers is in two pieces Ford has a foam gasket stuck to the metal of the cowl. You can push down the plastic cowl cover and watch water squeeze out of the foam gasket. The plastic cover it split in the middle and a plastic rivet holds it together. The split in the cowl cover...

So, with all this hub-bub about engine covers I decided to take a look. This is a 2020 with 13,000 miles that sits outside in Ohio all the time facing downhill. . Spark plugs 2-4 were pristine. Number 1….not so much…. I’m calling #1 at the front of the motor. So, I used dielectric grease on the...

Next issue to overcome...axles to fit that spool and the stock Ford axle housing. Since both Jeep and Ford use the M220, you may be able to source custom axle shafts from the Jeep Afermarket. However... Bearings, seals, retainer, and tone ring will be your next hurdle. As you may or may not...

Found this today. I remember reading about people having leaky axles seals and having to get the entire axle shaft replaced because Ford did not sell seals separate. Along comes this item....bearing/seal/retainer kit for Bronco M220 axles for when people change gear ratios. You will note that...
