Really? I've only heard the "American Family Insurance" jingle about 56 thousand times in the last decade. Amica always gets top marks for insurers, you could try them too. I can't justify the premium for Amica since I've made one claim between home and auto in 30+ years- Ike ripped the...

He's saying it took 5 min to pull the fender liner on an Edge. I think it'll take a lot longer than take on the Raptor, but I've never taken them out.

Any of the lowers that were difficult to access from the sides, I just went from the top to get them.

Ford runs the lighter weight gear oil up front already, and it's a full syn from the factory too, so I doubt you'll find much relief from the fluid. You could ask around and see if your neighbors living on the frozen planet of Hoth have any input as to what gear oil is best in the cold. Do you...

Yea, it's a real 4WD system- it all turns at the same time, you can't be making sharp turns in parking lots in 4WD. The truck is telling you to quit that shit. It should be able to be driven in a straight line in 4WD without issue, no matter the surface. If it can't go in a straight line in...

Went to shop home insurance a while back- it's way up. Body shops must salivate when a $100K vehicle comes in damaged.

I wouldn't bother, it's just more work to remove and replace. You can access the plugs through the gap no problem.

Made in China!

-30C ***** everything up.

Heating things tends to lead to burning things. It's a whole hell of a lot harder than just "a copper wire" and some current.

All of my Fords with heated steering wheels are more than adequate thermally. Nearly flame thrower like.

Some people change cars like they do their underwear. Seems to me like a great way to **** away moeny in sales taxes, but to each their own.

Is one from the top plugs and the other from the side plugs? It's probabaly an irririum plug in one, and a platinum in the other if I had to guess. It's likely the spark jumps from the ground strap to the electrode on the irridium, but on platinum it jumps from the electrode to the ground...

Tan color electrode is good. Bright white is lean.

I think you mean iridium fine wire plugs. Ford has been runnning those as OE plugs in everything for over a decade. A platinum / double platinum plug has a thick center electrode with a flat head. An iridium fine wire plug has an electrode that looks thin enough to poke into your skin...

Dirty threads can give you false torque readings. Get a thread chaser for next time. (Not a tap!).

It's already modded. It's already ruinning, and had been for tens of thosands of miles. Get off the horse. BUT IT'S A TIMEBOMB!!!! they say.... Enjoy your S/C V8 and quit worrying about the predictions of doom.

The seat bottoms are made too big/loose. My orignal did it, I replaced it with a new one, and the replacement is doing it again. I put new/upgraded foam in there too, not that the OEM stuff was bad- but it's not the foam. There's no way to stretch it tighter either, you just gotta live...

New seat? Ford isn't replacing it because you think it's uncomfortable. Aftermarket? Good luck with the truck's electronics. Seats have their own computer modules nowadays, you'd be lucky if it'd even start with the OEM seats gone. It's the 80/20 rule with seats, and you are part of the...

Slotted/drilled? More noise, more vibration, more likely to crack rotors, more likely to damage pads. Less thermal mass in the rotor and they cost more. It could be argued for days, and alredy has on dozens on internet message boards. The original intent of drilling/slotting rotors was...

Don't worry about the engine oil pump gears. FordTech1 is a Gen 2 nancy. Anything can be blown up by certain types of owners. If it's run this far, it'll likely go another 200K- assuming you don't try to break it. Here's the thing with Ford engines- they rarely fail late in the game unless...

No on any slotted/drilled BS and no to Powerstop. Centric rotors are better for the money IMO.

Do you have the extended license for the Forscan software? You need that to make any changes to the BCM.

He said snatch.

Tuner lug nuts are inferior. Never had any issues with stock lugs, even 15years down the road. All issues with the Ford lugs are from people using the wrong size socket and slightly damaging the SS outer wrap. Then the next guy uses an even larger socket that further damages the SS shell...
