    Fox shock restoration

    I know they can be rebuilt but is there a way to restore these heavily corroded body? I guess if I can find the replacement part if thats even available.

    Anybody use Pneumatic dispenser/extractors?

    Actually the extractor part is really only to fill with new fluid and dispense to trans. Plus don't want to have to clean it all out so I'll just use a dispenser. Yep makuloco is my bible.

    Anybody use Pneumatic dispenser/extractors?

    Seems like a solid system except that and they have fittings that could directly connect to filler which is a no no since the 6r80 is a sealed system and could blow out a seal.

    Anybody use Pneumatic dispenser/extractors?

    Planning on doing the lead frame replacement and researching everything. Has anyone used this and is there any concern with electric driven air compressor air contaminating the fluid? Don't want to take any chances.

    Cold Weather starting problems

    I had an older 5.4L, just guessing but IAC cleaning? Always caused rough idle and a rich mix.

    Explaining gas mileage to your children

    Raptor sales volume is miniscule compared to rest of the volume of ice vehicles. After that its just arguing whether there should be vehicles for leisure in general.

    Dovetail bed exhaust routing pics?

    Porter recommends not hard mounting to body for movement. I'd assume like a 2 piece, 1 hard mounts and the exhaust just points into body tip.

    TSB 13-6-8 Transmission

    Has anyone fought this since its a safety concern and other motorists can be effected if injuries or death occurred? Guess they worked out the probability numbers vs cost.

    TSB 13-6-8 Transmission

    Looks like my truck was way late to the lead frame game. The truck refused to throw any codes despite multiple lockups at highway speed, once in 2019/05 and once 2 days ago, which just happens to be 4 days past the recall extension. THAT IS INSANE. Although still no code so would still be no go...

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    Problem solved, I think. All this time I thought I had gotten the lead frame recall done and it was only a PCM reprogramming for the same problem. I think it was early on with the problems and they hadn't issued the lead frame one yet, and I never got any notice about it. Weird that the...

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    I've read that lead frame can fail multiple times and sounds like same symptoms. Stuck in 3rd.

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    Normally that would be the case but with mine its the absolutely lowest duty a vehicle could have. Low miles (150k km), garage stored (literally for the last 2 years), I towed once with it and it was a 2k lb trailer, almost never offroad, heavy trail drive once. Thing should still be brand new.

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    I could not get a clear indicator with the elaborate crazy methods trying not to completely skin your arm totally off of skin from the 1000F cat. This is all I could get.

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    Yep had it running and pretty close to operating temp. TSB and leadframe was done on it.

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    How in gods name, the fluid level is low by quite a bit! How can this happen with zero evidence of a leak anywhere? Will have to check again with optimal trans temp but it had to have been close to driving temp. What kind of damage would there be from this? I keep it in the garage and I've been...

    Saw an output speed sensor might cause this?

    GEN 1 Transmission shifting glitch

    I couldn't find anything on this but remember this was a tsb at one time and can't find the orginal thread. Tonight on acceleration it shifted from 5th to 6th, glitched half way and dropped into 3rd locking the truck up a bit. After that it wouldn't get out of 3rd. I pulled over shut truck off...

    Backup Camera or Lights?

    Agreed on the camera is a must. I installed rigid reverse lights near plate and it floods out the camera pretty bad, but the camera really doesn't need much light to see, and just use the reverse lights for warning drivers backing up or as a work light.

    Running board coating repair

    These running boards are the weirdest thing ever. This happened from factory too, the paint starts bubbling underneath and eventually starts flaking but the some are still totally sealed. You chip the paint off and its full of white powder. Originally I thought it was salt from roads but not...
