Shock rebuilds are super worth it, mine needs its second one this month

So if @FordTechOne fix doesnt end up working. Its possible that rtv from a oil pan job or phaser job has broken off and worked its way into the oil pickup and only comes on intermittently. However, if thats it, it may be catastrophic one day.

I'm happy with my 18 Gen 2. 106k miles and almost 7 years, just picked up a hybrid maverick and keeping the Gen 2 vs replacing with a Gen 3...

Mine was a coincendence of an issue with my thermostat after the cam phaser work. Never had a problem with my light bar behind my grill on my Gen 2...

my first went at like 20k..... strange. second around 90k

"I’m looking for advice so this gets done right has a great strong motor is a reliable truck again that will have 850 HP Plus and 600 plus at wheels." This doesnt exist...... buy stock truck, drive stock truck, enjoy! Also Ford Long block from Tasca is like 6-8k if i remember correctly plus...

https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/failed-sway-bar-end-link.102284/ This is what they will look like when you pull them off.

Honestly its stealing at this point. Just file a police report. But start with doing a chargeback on your card.

See didnt need to see anything, i've never seen a crank do that on a non tuned ecoboost

I'm gonna say "tune"

Also now this.... https://www.linkedin.com/news/story/toyota-honda-in-testing-scandal-6796314/ Which defect? I remember the throttle sticking issue many years ago. Also that was a issue with peoples floormats lol. Kinda like the GM issue with key rings that people had wreaking ignition...

was it "leaking" or leaking leaking. They all leak a very little. This is why there are drains.

ey eye eye..... no fun

at least Toyota actually admits fault and recalls things. Ford has been decent about customer sat programs. many years later after years of denial.

I ordered mine with it, but its been mostly problems. Good news is no scratches from off roading on the glass you'd have on paint but I woudlnt order it that way again. I used to use it all the time, but i keep the shade closed mostly now anyway. The sun can just be too much, althought it...

It took me a while to sort my Gen 2 that I've had since new and 100k miles. The new ones are nice but not interested in spending 90+ K to go sort a bunch more issues. So Gen2 it is. Sometimes the Devil that you know is better than the devil you dont'. I dont get as worked up about things...

THere is quite a bit of stuff around Ocala and north of Tampa a bit. If you stay out of the swamp, its just nice and sandy for miles and miles.

Yep, i did PPF on my truck, i dont worry about pinstripes now. I enjoy my time offroad more because of this. Good choice. Good news is you are in FL where the aftermarket crap coated bumpers wont rust out. Up here in MI, its a process of repowder coating them every so often. The aftermarket...

So, i have some input, everyone comes and says what mods they are going to do, I think often without considering why they are doing the mods. My suggestion is go to run the truck, see what its capable of and see what may or may not make sense afterwords. Many people should work on the "driver...

What was your duty cycle, was it litterally nearly 100 percent freeway? curious for the cam phasers

100 percent

Depending on who you talk to this is debatable. I've been told the numbers are fairly low, but thats improbable because they don't issue Customer Satisfaction Bulletins for things that don't often happen. You may be better off having one of the latest phaser designs due to your production...

Dont know how I missed your follow up. Ok so AutoSS always parks the phasers, Disabled at Idle sometimes but not always parks the phasers? Im going to send this thread to my buddy at Ford that did PowerTrain for 3.5 Raptor for a while and see what he may know.

probably about 300 lbs heavier

Yep, mine does it, It will stop or i hit a spot with my hand and that sometimes helps :)
