Anyone bought anything from this acct? Seeing some strangely low prices but he has 47K followers. Not many comments on his posts either: https://www.instagram.com/ford_truck_parts/
I have about a half dozen of those part companies following me. They always have a scammy vibe.

Order your stuff from Tasca, FPG or your local place.

I was quoted 1500 for undercarriage so something like 500.
$500 is not all that crazy. My detailer spent 6 hours on mine and admitted defeat haha

Besides being dusty, can anyone tell me what this is and what it does? It’s in the center area of my dash. This is all I can see.

Looks like a volume knob for a radar scanner.

EDIT: Looks like very similiar this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0082DJL34/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

This gotta be it: https://sdparts.com/i-24141018-****...-hpJ3jsHqi__81uRHUNIISulNkuMwvRBoClPUQAvD_BwE

I'm taking my truck back into the shop [that did the differential] because there is a noise that came back. I'm not about to drop 2k on a diff service and not have it be perfect.

I hate when you lay out the kind of money and it's not right and you have to take it back and deal with all that hassle. Hope it is something simple and not a big deal.

Yep, I get it completely. As long as its not any new damage it will be warranty, so it should only be a time sink and not a money sink.

So I did a trans service today. Been putting it off, as I've been very busy, and my trans has been running MINT with nice low temps.
Up until yesterday.
Threw a P0741 code. Lost my shit. As I'm very sure it's from my procrastination.
None the less. After code threw I checked fluid level and it was a little low. Topped it off and drove home.
Today I dropped the pan, let it drip while I attached a secondary filter. Got 8qrts out of it which really surprised me, never mind all the fluid that went down the driveway, and that was lost out of the trans cooler.
I ended up moving the trans cooler up on the mount, and installed an oil filter mount and HUGE Wix filter that sapodly adds 2qrts to system. It took 1.5qrts dry before install so I believe it hold close to 2 quarts under pressure.
Installed new trans filter, and filled it back up with all the trans fluid I had. Unfortunaly I was shy a little fluid, and need to buy more tomorrow. I purchased 7qrts, expecting to drop 5 from pan and extra 2 from new filter. So tomorrow I'm buying 3 more quarts to be safe. Wish I took before pics, but here's some after pics.

Hopefully this does the trick and that damn P0741 code doesn't come back. No other noticable issues other than the code. No hard shift, slipping, clunking.
Guess time will tell.
