Spare tire mount reinforcement kit now available from Ford Performance Parts

[RHeinz]

I may have screwed myself calling in to check on my order the other day. They sent me an email giving me an updated status alright — my order was cancelled per MY request!

Well not really my request, but it was cancelled either way. Called back and they said the parts were on back order. The rep said unless I saw 2 green checkmarks on the website (ship to home AND dealer) then it would be cancelled again if I reordered.

She gave me a number to FP to investigate further. 888.826.5105. The poor guy there wasn’t extremely helpful but said they were on back order until 2/20 and no idea why my order was cancelled. His suggestion was to ignore the other rep and reorder.

LOL, that was my plan anyhow so I just reordered. Same discounts but chose the dealer option this time which said they will have by 2/12.

Good times.

Sooooo….

One week down and we are still in processing?

Cool, if I order something and don’t really care when it gets here did I really need it?

They just charged my CC

I got the Bronco roll up tools, took six weeks. I'd get a 'pending' charge every couple weeks. Finally showed up though.

LOL, I ordered my BAMF bumper 4/30and took about 5 months to get here. In fairness I knew it was going to be a few months but the lead time grew longer as they moved shops, etc.

Love the quality but that lead time was a killer!

On the flip side my TOR rear bumper showed up in a week or so of placing the order. Very fast delivery.

Actual charge or pending? Fingers crossed for you.

Got a pending charge on 2/1 when I placed my initial order. Got another pending today when I reordered after Ford canceled the first order.

They were quick to hit those pending charges and cancel my order but not release/reverse the initial pending charge. I’m not overly worried about it as I know they will make it right but just found it comical.

Ford finally charged my card, so maybe that’sa good sign. But still says processing.

Edit: Well, Pending charge. Can't really tell if it's just a hold or actual charge.
Absolutely no word from Ford kinda revives my not so happy ford feelings again

Pending charges and holds are basically the same thing. The transaction has been authorized by your bank, but not processed and/or collected by the merchant.

Absolutely no rush on my end. It'll ship whenever it ships...

Thinking of just reordering at this point. Mine has been processing for about 2 weeks now

I would wait it out. If you read upthread a bit you will see I called to check on mine and they cancelled it.

I did reorder and it was a little bit of a crap show but one of the reps I spoke to said they were back ordered until 2/20. Just speculation on my part but I would think FP would supply oldest orders first once they have stock again.

Oddly enough when I reordered, I optioned to pick up at the dealer instead of direct shipping. It said it would be at the dealer by 2/12. Not sure how to digest that. Maybe dealers get priority?

That’s only a few days away so I will post up if it actually arrives as stated.

I just called Ford Accessories, and they also stated that these are backordered until 2/20, and said it would take a week after to start shipping.

They also told me that the order might automatically cancel if it "sits" for too long (didn't give me a timeframe for that, my order was placed Jan 31). When I asked if I can re-order using the same discount codes, they said I'd have to rely on whatever discounts are available at the time of re-ordering. @Ford, this seems like a crappy deal if these orders get cancelled and the same discount codes do not exist anymore.

EDIT: Order is now "in transit to dealer" as of Feb. 11.

Do we know how much additional weight this supports?

Why are you bringing logical questions to this forum? I thought this kit was just for the looks?

(ok fine, I have the same question. I'm just assuming my 37" spare is fine (plus some), given this is Braptor OEM)

Given that a OEM Raptor wheel/tire combo would be about 12 lbs heavier (16 with beadlock added) than the SAS combo...at least that, so a couple gallons of gas.

IF this happens to me I will take it as a sign from the universe to just order the new Turn Offroad bumper with carrier and not have to remove my tailgate.

Not sure about the size. The instructions say you have to move it to the right about 1” which is why I think a new one is included.

I had bought a matte black one to swap out anyhow awhile back. Expensive little sucker. $80 for the matte black. Gloss one was $45 or so.

I want the black horse logo but my Badlands is silver so the black provides a nice contrast. The current horse kind of gets lost.

@nolimits kind of unrelated, but what size tires are your running there?
