Perfect. Thanks again HRG.

That'd be great, thanks!

Thanks. Have you actually used them? Do they really take a 22mm (rather than 21mm) socket?

I have a '24 EB, FX4 and 4K tow package, with the machined gray wheels (and chrome lug nuts, not black). I love the combo, but have seen a lot of posts about Ford lug nuts corroding and swelling, without seeing any highly recommended replacements, specifically in chrome. Amazon has some...

I don't mind seeing old topics brought up. I think some of the posters live on here too much and assume everyone has seen all the posts, or picks the right search terms.

Summer gas, plus maybe you lucked into some ethanol-free straight gas.

I just found out there were torx plus out there, too. I wouldn't carry them in the truck, leave them at home in the safe.

OK, this is lasting much longer than I meant. But why do you say that about Battery Tender. Their box/specs say they handle AGM batteries.

Thanks, that makes the most sense. I'm still surprised it doesn't control charge based more on state of charge from voltage readings than on trying to integrate current in and out.

No, I'm sorry for the confusion. I don't need to reset anything. My real question: Why does the BMS know or care about any battery charging when the engine is off? Does it even know it happened??

But how does the system see the charge when it's off? And what if it misses the secret charge? Won't it adapt anyway?

Thanks, all. I tracked down the manual, per Decayed's suggestion, and it recommends the chassis connection, too. It seems to be to avoid arcs/sparks, just as in jumping. They don't discuss monitoring circuits. Looks like I'll leave well-enough alone.

I recently hooked up a battery tender to my '24 EB FX4 truck, to accommodate our infrequent use and short trips. I followed the advice of several posts here to hook the positive to the battery positive and the ground to a chassis ground, much as you would for jumping a car. Things seem to be...

This was our '85 Nissan King Cab - one of a string of Datsun/Nissans for us. The earlier ones had an external horizontal seam in the bed. It rusted in a couple of years in New England.

Had a guy park so close like that I had to fold both his mirror and mine to back out.

No, L is actually for keeping it in a lower gear, like the standard "PRNDL" set. Ford just used the button for the "car wash" feature as well.

Don't know - ask Ford. Why are the tremor specs lower??

That's not quite what I meant. I wasn't thinking that the limited-slip would be engaged, only that the RDU mechanical capability (size, gears, bearings) might be lower, accounting for Ford's lower cargo and towing specs. As I recall, it was originally designed for the bronco sport rather than a...

As I recall, the tremor has a limited-slip rear end (maybe what Tiger Dude meant) which might well be the weak link for towing and cargo weight.

Agree in spirit but Maverick's have 21mm, not 19.
