I do sincerely apologize for my remarks.
You are correct that I don't know your true history in the auto industry. I was to caught up in other stuff I had going on when I responded to you. The snarky remarks we uncalled for.
How was this rude? I didn't call him names or insult his intelligence.
I said his inside knowledge of Ford was out of date.
He claimed to have "inside" info on said topic. When asked about proof of claim, he states
"I have previously worked at Ford in Transmission Engineering", but fails to...
@Richard2212
Really, you retired 33 YEARS AGO. Do you really think Ford is still doing the same stuff from 33 YEARS AGO.
Your "knowledge" of Ford internal is no longer valid. You have been retired for FAR to long to claim you know the internal processes for Ford.
Look at the outside world...
Do you have any proof of this? I would like to see it. I'm not saying your wrong just curious.
I have been doing Ford parts for over 10 years. I've never heard this before. 90% of the people I know in the industry stay away from Jasper unless its the ONLY option.
This is really interesting. I work in a Ford parts department. Ford doesn't list a reman trans for the Mav yet. I'm curious as to what they actually put in your truck.
If you could post the part number for the trans I would appreciate it. I want to do some digging on this one.
(I will preface this with I don't have any sort of degree in lighting tech. But I have spent a ridiculous amount of time researching and learning about lights and the color of them.)
You sound like fun at a party.
I have 5000K bulbs in my house because I HATE with the passion of the burning...
Reading threw the Ford workshop manual and with what I see in my parts catalog.
These are the available Powertrain options for a Maverick. Its the Same PTU in both just cooled in the Tremor.
They share the same PTU, just the Tremors is cooled. So they would take the same fluid. Tremor does have dual clutch RDU. It is the same RDU as non- Tremor just with an additional clutch.
So again same fluid.
Here is what Ford has in the workshop manual for the specs for the RDU & PTU. Ford doesn't show any different fluid or procedure for the Tremor.

I have no plans to mess with my suspension at the moment, but from how @Flatout Suspension has handled the wanna be trolls in this tread. They have earned my business in the future.
