Oh for sure- I completely agree- not unbelievable AT ALL- it’s a major corporation vs some dude, they’ll bury anyone in legal paperwork and attorneys fees if they chose to…
Interesting... I had no idea that was how things actually worked. I have never had a warranty denial while active under coverage (6k miles, brand new). Thank you for explaining. That’s actually very helpful.
I have only really heard of warranty flagging for extreme mods and tunes (previous...
I'd be pretty shocked (pun intended) if they could void a power train for adding a tire size up from factory. That'd tantemont to But hey who knows!
I completely agree. That would make sense on a 2-3” spacer lift. Ive seen those CVs before and it’s not a good look. They are screaming for a...
Interesting. I haven’t had any clearance concerns and yes I talked with the tech. He cleared it for my setup.
The install PDF was on their website (blue font link). I’ll take a look for it.
I can understand the position, but I don’t know if that makes sense considering the same CVs are likely used across models and we know that there are different lift heights across trims. Clearly there are a range of acceptable angle tolerances.
Ah- ok so that is helpful to know. I appreciate your candor and I wasn’t trying to be entirely sarcastic in asking (you seem to know your shit on this forum, so I’m not surprised).
My comment was based on my own observation pre and post lift. I saw very little deviation as a dude in my garage...
Ya- it was a cake walk!
Install PDF online was simple to understand. Whole deal took about an hour.
Air tools will help, but have a breaking bar at minimum and a torque wrench capable of 180ftlbs and you’re good to go.
Use a ratchet strap to pull the body to the left when re-aligning the bolt...
I’m not a tech. I don’t have a tech manual to reference. My point was that there is a range not one exact degree of angle. Are you a tech? Perhaps you can answer.
Either way your comment had nothing to do with my point- hence it’s irrelevant.
The situation is that the CV was clearly defective...
Ugh- said I was gonna dip out but for data’s sake….
It is a HOSS 3.0 with “severe duty” rack, tie rods. It’s not a spacer lift. It’s a perch collar lift.
OK… now I’m out.
I appreciate the inquiry, but we’re not really having a relevant discussion.
The main point is that the tech owned up to the fact that it was clearly a boot defect from the factory.
As it goes we’re talking a total of about 2500 miles with any mods, shaft angles that are virtually identical to...
I’m not venting but thanks… I’m just communicating my experience so that other people will understand their options. The reality is that if someone cared enough they could fight something like this. But to the point it would be costly. The CV angles were not effected so there isn’t a causal...
I wanted to let everyone know what my dealership experience was like at my local Ford dealership.
At 5500k miles I noticed grease on my driver side LCA during an oil change.
I quickly realized it was CV boot grease. I brought the bronco into the dealership at that time. They confirmed that...
As the title says- I just wanted to let everyone know that the Rock Jock Track bar relocation bracket is totally worth it!
Well worth the $100 if you have any type of lift. It helps to correct the rear geometry which helps trim out the bounce/sway and improves handling.
Great work RockJock...
I wanted to report back that ultimately, after waiting for them to finally return to inventory, I have ordered a set of 5 RTR Evo 6s, in Satin Black, 17x9 00mm offset.
I will be removing the OE SAS wheels, removing the TPMS sensors, and transplanting those, along with the 37s to the RTRs. I...
