I was absolutely shocked recently when my daughter's 19 Ranger with a 2.7L engine was diagnosed by the dealer with water intrusion (it was misfiring). She did park it nose down slightly in a driveway that makes the problem worse. The fix was a plug and boot change and dielectric grease on the...
First upgrade was to replace the GYMT’s with new KO2’s. Just my favorite tire. The shop that installed the tires pumped them up to the door jamb sticker of 40 psi. Seems to much for this tire. I’m thinking more like 35 psi. Without doing the chalk test, does that seem right? Will I have...
Ok, I am guessing this will be a dumb question - but here goes. About 3 months ago I had my Wildtrak in the local Ford dealer with a reverse sensor error. They said it needed a new sensor. They ordered one, but said it needed to be painted. Several months later I am at the dealer to service...
Ive done some searching but cannot get a definitive answer. Does anyone know of a transmission skid that will work with the factory skids? Nothing fancy - just steel in my case. Appreciate the help.
I recently purchased a set of factory skids to install on my WT. I had the dealer install them, but I later found the engine skid in the rear with the extra front skid. While I was installing my rock sliders, I noticed that there were some cross members in the same area. Does anyone know if a...
Changing the Goodyear MT to my favorite BFG k02 tires this weekend. Discount tire that I have had good luck with in the past. They changed 2 tires and called saying that the rings were chipping. To their credit they stopped and called me. This only happened on 2 out of 3 wheels. I told...
I just switched from a 2.3L to the 2.7L engine. I just removed the hidden winch from the 2.3L before a trade. I don't think I want to tackle the hidden winch on the 2.7L, so I was looking at the high winch mount by Rough Country. Does anyone have this setup with a towbar? Its a bit difficult...
We are looking at a loaded wild track with the 2.7/10 speed, Lux, Leather, Tow, hardtop, and Sasquatch. A Carmax car with 3,000 miles. In route, but it looks brand new from the pictures. What do you think of a $66,998 price? Seems high to me, but you know how Carmax works - deal or no deal.
Looking at a 2022 badlands. Doesn’t have the button on the dash but the sticker says FRONT STABILIZER BAR. Does anyone know for the 22 if that means it has the disconnect but not activated other than GOAT modes (like rock crawl)?
I currently have a 22 base but I am looking at a 23 wildtrak. I am thinking about buying the wildtrak outright because I want to swap some things before I sell my base retail. The biggest thing i want to swap it the hardtop from the 22 to the 23. I know this is likely a dumb question, but...
So, I have been trying to figure out my auto high beams on my Bronco. When I manually change them (non-auto) there is a significant difference between low beam and high beam. When I run in automatic, I don't notice the same difference. But the high beam indicator is on. I was wondering if...
I have had this happen several times. Yesterday, I leave the Bronco running in the driveway to do something prior to backing into the garage. I walk back to the Bronco and the driver door is locked. Well that is strange! I have also had a few cases where in the garage the driver door is...
And yes, I made sure they were enabled in the settings and the switch was on A. I actually disabled and re-enabled in settings with no success. Didn't find much of anything in a search so I thought I would see if anyone else has this issue.
So I have a base model with the 2.3l engine. Only 4,500 ish miles (I purchased it with 4,300 miles on the Bronco). I installed the JCR engine cover and when at idle the cover was "ringing" due to impact on other engine parts. I checked the clearance between the cover and verified fitment and...
I found a clean local take take off coilovers, upper front control arms and a full set of rear control arms taken off a Wildtrak Sasquatch. Is it correct to assume this is all I will need to complete ~2" lift? Just want to make sure before I plunk down the rest of the $.
Well, I was being really careful and bracing my hands to keep control of the cutoff wheel, but it bound up and nicked the brake line. If I had really been thinking I could have temporarily bent the brake line out of the way. Ugh
Would you be concerned about this? Not sure how thick they are.
I watched a video where someone was installing a hidden winch on a bronco. He said he didn't need the spacers that come with the hidden winch kit. I am asking this question because at the same time I am installing a Blueox baseplate. I guess I could put the shims behind the baseplate...
