Just wondering for those who did their rotors/brake pads if they greased the caliper slider pins.
I greased mine as they didn’t seem to have a lot of grease on them. In the old days I didn’t always add grease if they looked good. These ones don’t seem to hold as much grease as the old style...
At 25:22 in this video it shows a AT-5000 installed in a Ford Maverick. As a CB guy for years it's pretty cool to see a SSB radio that small and it fits perfectly in the Maverick.
I've been a Falken Wildpeak fan for quite a while on my other vehicles so going to the Firestone Destination AT2 was a leap of faith but I'm glad I gave them a try. Going to the 235/70R17 gave the truck a different look and filled the wheel wells while giving a small clearance boost. The larger...
Hi Guys,
Hitting 80,000 and getting ready to do rotors and pads for the first time.
Read a bunch of the threads on brake jobs and I've done a ton in the past but was reading the service manual and it says the following on the rear brakes -
Installation
1. NOTICE: Do not use a C-clamp to...
22' Ecoboost FX4 Mav XLT - Recently I've had some weird/random warning messages pop up at random times. Messages disappear on their own and don't come back. It sounds like others have also had these issues with their battery starting to die. Had a parking break fault pop up today, had about 6...
I saw a post on Facebook where a guy damaged his cluster plastic with a cleaner that was too strong so figured I’d make a video about how to safely clean your screen because you don’t want to mess that up. I’ve been using this product since I bought the truck.
Been hauling our sailboat to the beach for a couple of years now and figured I’d show my tricks with the hitch extender. Using the straps for extra tension makes a huge difference.
Best best is to never let your gas tank get this low. I was always told this is not good for the fuel pump if you do it regularly as when it gets low it can overheat because the fuel helps keep it cool.
22’ Ecoboost. Had a coolant smell in cab couple of months ago, checked and coolant was low (below minimum when stopped or running) so filled it up. Now two months later it’s below minimum line again and I can faintly smell it in the engine bay. Searched for an hour but can not find a leak or...
We got a bunch of snow last week and although I'd already given the new Firestone Destination AT2 235/70R17 tires some good snow testing this year I figured I'd give the Maverick the tough task of trying to escape my slick concrete driveway without shoveling it first :) It's escaped previously...
I was working on a different video the other day and looked up at my bed extender hanging in the garage and thought maybe I should do a video on it after 2 years of ownership,
I got new 235/70 tires and thought I could use my wife’s used 235/65 on my steelie as the spare to lessen the height difference if I got a flat and had to go a longer distance vs the “full size spare” (215/60=27”).
Been messing for over an hour and can not get it to fit but I swear other people...
My ford mats don’t have the hole in the passenger mat to connect them in so they don’t move around but it bothers me more because there’s a lump under it.
Do the weathertech mats have the hole for the peg to clip into?
They offer better coverage so excited to try them butdon’t want to run...
After many months of looking at and comparing cat back exhaust systems I finally pulled the trigger and added the Magnaflow to my 2022 FX4. I wanted the performance gains of a cat back but I didn't want the sound of the less restrictive exhaust to be annoying. Many people have posted their...
Got my first flat tire and my “full size spare” was a 215/60R17 and 27.2 inches compared to my stock 225/65 pirelli tires at 28.5.
I read through the manual and it seems like the full size spare isn’t a 50mph max tire it’s a 70mph max.
So my question - on a long road trip if you use the full...
Was checking my tires today and although early on I thought the tires were wearing quicker than expected it seems they're holding up ok after 35,000 miles / 18 months. I thought I might have to change them around 40,000 originally but I think based on current tread they probably will make it...
Hello, I finally got around to attempting this mod today (22 XLT FX4 4K) and I was able to add the modes successfully I believe (they now show up :) )
However one weird thing was when I got to the screen to enable / disable mine looked very different than all the other videos I had seen.
Sorry...
This one piece of trim pops up on the freeway. Weird thing is that it has a little nub piece but it doesn’t really do anything to hold it in place. Seems like a poorly engineered solution for trim to be held in place.
Dealer is working to resolve it.
I've had a rattle on my dash for the last couple of months but was just ignoring it for the most part but today it got a lot louder and I noticed that my speaker cover over my tweeter looks to be warped. The one on the other side also isn't flush but not as bad as the drivers side one.
Going to...
