You could go with a remote switch like this one. Install it inline with the 12V port. Then you don't have to run wires to another switch. There are quite a few remote switch modules out there that handle 12V. Look for one in the format that appeals to you. Even ones with bluetooth, if you...

Like a dutiful forum poster, you provided incomplete information. You didn't mention anything about mileage between checks, if you are following the periodic routine specified in the manual, what mods you have made, how you have been driving, ... So, it's all speculation at this point. The...

That sucks. That quote is a total rip off. I have the Prinsu Pro on a 4 door and have had no issues. It is probably a defective bolt since the front sheared and the rear did not. Proving you didn't over torque it is the problem. I would still try getting it done under warranty, if you have...

I like that mount-near-the -firewall style of hood struts. I do not like the style that runs from the middle of the fender and blocks the side fender access. That style is not worth a wooden nickel. Found a pair of Redline/IAG/Steeda/RC/Ford style hood struts on Amazon for half the price. Had...

Ford is late on releasing the marketing info on this. It uses the 360-view camera system (why only available on LUX option) to live stream the rear camera full time on the windshield's rear view mirror. The mirror is supposed to be slightly larger, but in which dimensions, (wider, taller...

Have you tried the wheel visualizer on Tire Rack ?

I am reading that you bought this used (a '23 bought in '25), and probably had no window sticker. Doesn't mean one is not available - that can be gotten from the Ford site. You relied on the salesman representations. Whether it's fraud or not depends on what IL vehicle law say about your...

Here you go. Just make sure the shop can/ is willing to follow the process. This is not a typical gloss spray and bake. Prep is key for the texturing to work. Ford Spec Engineering Number: WSS-M99P1111-C (Black, Textured, Polyester Powder Coat) Gloss Level: 10–20 GU @ 60° (low gloss / satin)...

I presume you want less hassle with your safari bar in the long run. Powder coat (thick layer polyurethane) tends to hold up better than paint (thin layer enamel or acrylic), all environmental/road abuse things being equal. The Ford Performance bar comes powder coated, for $630 (as of today...

Had to find the ad! Come and say G'day

What @CalvinT said, slightly modified. That is "scratch & rub" from the ABS (or polyamide?) buckles. It has been friction rubbed in (heat transferred), so it may not all come off without some aggressive action. The solvents that dissolve those will also take off the surrounding finish. So...

Technically, it is a manufacturing defect due to over tensioning during sewing. The fabric was over stretched on the seam bend when sewn and had micro tears. It may also have been thinner in the vinyl layer at that spot in the fabric. UV, heat, body pressure pushed it along. It was probably...

Could have sworn that was the Mt Potosi hill descent trail. Must have forgot it only works in 4L.

Extreme Terrain and Northridge run sales, but not much of a discount. RSE holds that pretty tight vis-a-vis who they distribute to. Extreme Terrain from time to time has open box versions for sale that are scratched, missing a few parts or the wire harness - all available from RSE to get it...

You gotta keep chrome clean to look good, including inside the adhesive joint. Black, not so much ....

What is the look YOU want? Retro is chrome. But, from a distance, it will be barely visible with your gray body and the yellow band. So, most people will need to be close up to appreciate it. Black will be seen. And it does go with the Badlands emblem. But the gen 6 is only pseudo-retro...

Agree with the above. Powder coat is a durable plastic coating, except when you scratch/gouge it. Then it advertises the scratch. Not that paint doesn't, but it is a quicker fix. Your choice depends if you are a Mr Fix It, or a "have a pro do it" type person. Powder coat can be painted, with...

Lucky you! The first ever perfectly balanced tire and rim combo. Or not .... If you took the tire off the back gate and didn't find any weights, the dealership would handle that under warranty. Take it to the local tire shop and have them put it on the balancer to check. They may even do it...

AGREE!!! The dealer will make sure it's right, before you even see it. PLUS, they usually get shipped from a different warehouse than "ship-direct" fulfillment

@Whiskey Bizness - Why are you blaming Ford for FedEx's mess? You are pissed at the wrong people. This happens all the time with FedEx, and every other carrier out there. They just don't want you filing the claim with them (FedEx). So cool your emotions and let logic come back. Nobody...
