I appreciate the response. And thank you for going easy on me lol. Most of my engine replacement experience is when i used to pull a carbureted motor out of an old car and put a used motor out of another car into it in my driveway. If engine make spark and make sound and didnt go boom then i was...

So the engine is in i guess but it looks like the tech is experiencing some technical difficulties. I just got these alerts. The ford pass app is impressive in this regard. Im seeing whats happening with the engine in real time. Im wondering whats going on. Any ideas?

new update: the Service Advisor told me Friday the truck should be ready Tuesday and he would be sending me pics of the work so far. Well i called today and he apparently sent the pics to the wrong number but told me now my truck might be done Wednesday. I've been strung along so long with this...

I got a text from the ford dealer saying they wanted to buy mine as well. but then offered me (and obviously) less than what i paid 46 days ago. i am happy to report im supposed to get my truck back tuesday. We shall see....

I hear you, but i would worry more with a tech replacing heads or just valves on an engine than putting in a long block and just transferring parts over they would have had to remove most of to change the heads anyway. Also the test kinda makes an engine replacement logical. Engine run hard...

That's true but ive watched plenty of people snatch defeat from the jaws of victory many times lol. I figure ive been patient this long and im almost at the end of this part of my experience. ill inspect the truck before i leave and raise hell if there's a problem. And yeah when you are 1 of 1...

Im glad this thread popped up. This looks like an excellent option. Basically makes it into a legit convertible. I know im late to the party but the bars still open and serving drinks...

That service manager sounds like he has both a great memory and also a grudge but oh well what can yah do. He doesn't have to be nice, just competent. good luck hope it works out!!!! My update is that my truck finally got the engine replacement started this last Monday 8/4. Mind you it was...

Just came across an article saying there is a recall on some 2025 ford vehicles, bronco included. https://www.cars.com/articles/312000-plus-fords-lincolns-recalled-for-loss-of-power-brake-assist-513733/

An oil pressure gauge.

Appreciate the kind words. It is what it is and will all work out. I always lived by the practice of its ok to be salty about something for a minute but then you need to nut up, suck it up and move on. This is no exception. Im thankful that my job has allowed me to use one of the older shop...

Well here you go lol; Brought my 2.7 in and it failed the test and is getting a new engine. Update: so my truck has been at the dealer for 34 days. I also called Friday, Monday and Tuesday for just a status update and my advisor never answered and his mailbox is full. I felt that warranted an...

Oooo my bad. Forgot there were other pics in that post. Those pics are from the picture on amazon of the rims i bought. Heres the link: https://a.co/d/c7FSoai

Thats my ride. Im fairly confident they are sas flares. They measure out 5 inches. I dont know if other models have 5 inch flares. These definitely were added after. Its a 21 outer banks advanced. And the reason i dont know for sure is cause i got the truck with them already installed. Dont...

My smartass answer: spare 2.7 engine with correct valves my serious answer: a built in lockable rear storage. Can be flush mounted or slide out type. Great for the tacticool, the hunter, or the topless enthusiast.

Welcome! And beautiful ride!

Too bad i cant ask the dealer to throw in a coyote instead of the new 2.7 and ill just cover the difference. BTW thats a joke. Sort of lol.

Shocks are not yellow and i didnt think i saw any blocks or anything but i will definitely get a closer look when it gets back. I think the previous owner added the flares after they did the tires and spacers. Sad to say i had the truck for two weeks before i brought it in for the recall. They...

Thank you! I agree, small little touches really wake this truck up. I also measured and found out i have the Sasquatch fender flares as mine are 5 inches wide. The tires are more aggressive than i usually have on a vehicle but they are nice, big and quiet (ish) at high speed. I got this truck...

Happy to be part of the club. 2021 OB ADVANCED. Currently at Ford getting a new engine. Cant wait to get it back and drive it!
