😂😂😂 battery was dead

Excuse me???! it’s a Grande. I can’t handle a Venti, and you know this… There was a tense moment this week I’ll have you know, when I overlanded to a new starbies I wasn’t familiar with that had a trail rating 1/10 according to onX.. I struck a curb in the drive through because my scrub...

Dang it. Thanks for this. I lost steam editing. Will Get after it. 👊

It’s a nice upgrade and should have come stock. The shift points are the largest “felt” advantage and the ability to adjust tires is much easier or a few less steps then forscan. No issues with it and happy I did it. I used free ford points for it and installed it myself, takes 10 min … I...

I have not checked any thermal loads before and after, so I could not provide any substantiated data for temperatures. Using “bro science” I would think adding air gaps via foam, thinsulate, and the foil back deadening mat would definitely help with insulation like those shiny foil heat...

If the triangle gasket is whistling there in my photos that is your issue most likely. If your door is whistling at the top by your ear then carefully pull down the window gasket on the hard top and even a tiny bit eliminates the whistle. They move down a little.

Ha. I’m not around the bronco right now but here are some photos of the location. The weather striping sits inside the channel so when the glass is up it compresses the weather striping and seals the air coming in. Follow the contour of the window at an angle so the strip takes up slack in...

Go to Home Depot and buy the self adhesive backed weather striping. Separate the 2 and cut a piece about 3” or so. Roll window down and slide the strip in there so the adhesive sticks to the upper part of the triangle trim then roll window up and close door so window presses up against it. Then...

Awesome! Wish your the best and hope the info is helpful ☺️👍

It does. But you might miss the rumble of the engine. It was somewhat a disappointment… here I thought it was a tough v6. Nah just a quiet tough v6. Ha. The nice thing is you can always change it back if you don’t like it. But most likely the engine noise you are hearing is fake so by removing...

Cool! Yeah I will get it down soon. I’m lazy. Ha. Just busy but will try to get it posted. I also did not remove the seats or the carpet. You can access the areas with out doing that.

I used the NIOSH SLM app. I had mine at ear height. I also turned off HVAC. I did have a nasty air whistle on driver door and fixed that prior to the testing. The little triangle spot the window rises in was pretty bad on mine. Also the stock tires are pretty loud. Not sure what your tires are...

Cool 😎. Let me know what you think. It didn’t change the Db on the test but the sound was definitely lower in pitch to ear. Like “no way” lower 😂 sorry that’s not very quantifiable but very real 😂😂😂

I agree with others here. I’ve done extensive work and trial and error. The kilo mat plus closed cell and 3m thinsulate works amazingly well. I have a video I’m editing on how I did mine. Should be done soon. Did lots of Db testing. Doors are big and so is floor. The headliner is not a big bang...

Forscan is the best way. Free software lots of tutorials online with spreadsheets. ACM module is where to change the code to turn it off
