SAS is not just tire size, it's also different differentials, suspension and tires. The M210's are (according to this forum's contributors) notably stronger than the M190's. So while it doesn't sound like you'd be able to take advantage of the SAS package, a salesman saying it's just tires...
Perfect opportunity for the doors and the roof to be left behind today. At about 65mph on the highway I see something flapping in the corner of my eye, it's my rear floor mat flapping in the breeze. Held it down for a few more miles and then took the out and put them under my cargo netting on...
So we're going to ignore last nights adventure in the rain without my hard top on and say that the dumbest thing I ever did was to go up this hill without plates or knowledge of the size of the rocks on top of this ledge. It was steep enough that I dragged my spare tire along the ground at the...
I have the doors and roof off as often as possible. I've left the roof on a few times with the doors off, but I prefer everything off. It's loud and windy. You'll be driving something with the aerodynamics of a pallet of cinder blocks, it's not designed so you can have a phone call at the...
I had AI design a retractable one just to keep the sun off the seats while I'm parked. This is what I would buy. Seconds to deploy, don't really need it while driving on the highway.
Good. It's my understanding that most people won't have this issue. In particular with me, you can see in Figure A denoted by the arrows is a slight curvature where the two planes of the material intersect. On most units, this is more of a 90 degree angle instead of the curvature shown here...
I leaned into and am very much enjoying the black and blue contrast. Purely aesthetic, get what makes you happy! As for swirls, I knew she'd be in the woods. I knew I'd be patching scratches. They become memories of good times, not blemishes. (I wish I knew the name of the guy that told me...
FWIW, this is the amount of grind I had to to in order for the hooks to sit in properly. The "pucks" sat inside just fine. This is both the hooks pictured together just to check I had done them evenly. I spoke over the phone to the engineers at Maximus (quite a bit actually, these guys are...
My two cents, if it's even worth that, is that the Sasquatch package is worth it. It comes with upgraded differentials, which are beneficial for offroading, if that's your goal.
When I was shopping in Dec 24 for my Wildtrak, I called every dealership in a 50ish mile radius of Westchester. Some dealers weren't even offering the $1,500 rebate from Ford (I'm looking at you Scarsdale). I don't know if that's laziness, greed or incompetence. Shultz and Stamford were the...
I have the Maximus 3 reinforcements. They didn't interfere with anything and other than taking the bumper off, nothing else was in the way. Ford did change the diameter of the whole in the frame. At one point it was 3/8" but the bolt is 1/2" which fit on previous years or something like that...
I only ever used it once on a tight trail to get around a tree with a lot of loose material under all tires. I was expecting to to be much louder than what people described, but it just sounded similar to the ABS. I just wanted to show off that I could make the turn in one shot when everyone...
