One measurement I've not been able to obtain by researching is the max coilover mounting distance (between frame and LCA) to ensure the CV does not bind or rip a boot under full droop and max steering.
I'm buying parts now to use 2" top spacers on my OEM badland SAS coilovers and planning on...
Looks like they are a large shop making all kinds of fuel tanks for SUVs. Seems they have three kinds, the one here that replaces the fuel tank and two aux tanks; one behind the rear axle and one in the empty space on the other side of the driveshaft. 30, 16.6, 15.8 gallons. I'm liking the...
Time to lift my '23 bronco badland sas. It is no longer my DD and it's getting time to up the power and run 37's. I did bumpers, winches, and air compressor when it was new, time for more.
My main question is can I use the 2" spacers if I do a diff drop? The Dobinsons's diff drop is 1"...
I have lifetime cheap tickets so I buy some every year, can't use them this year. If anyone can use them, please do not get them and then don't go, this is a pay-it-forward situation. I can transfer them anonymously via an email address, so first come first serve.
It is identical to the OEM pan except it has a drain. The main benefit is that you don't have to drop the pan to do a fluid change, and it makes it less messy to drop the pan when you do.

There will always be wear, the thought is removing the metal particles so they do not exponentially increase the wear. And, yes when the gears wear in (polish) the amount of metal particle production is greatly reduced.
If you always get metal paste, I would say your not changing your fluid...
Got the $50 pan. Have to say I'm very pleased, no less quality than the original and the drain plug is very suitable, as the bronze/alloy is molded into the pan and the drain plug is metal with machine threads. I would say the only reason why the factory does not do this is cost savings...
100% agree I generally keep changing my fluid every oil change till the magnets comes up clean, then just check the magnet every oil change. With E-locking axles the actuators will collect the particles and wear prematurely or stop working, causing more headaches. Noticed on my superduty...
100% sure it is identical to the OEM but w/drain plug. They use generic descriptions on rock auto. My order is being shipped now, when it shows up I'll post a pic and opinion on drain design.
I was looking for a pan with a drain, as I'm a believer in fluid refresh every 30K or so. There is a lot of high dollar cast aluminum pans out there, all ~$300-$400, found a OEM style pan with a drain for $50, link below. For those that may not know Dorman is an OEM supplier, they made the...
