Man you’re a true champ man, yes the worm gear clamps I used 2 of them stripped on me, absolute trash.
Ordered the ones you recommended.
Why didn’t you tell me all of this before I started the project? lol
Yup sorry, figured mentioning the 7 pin covered the brake controller but yes brake controller as well. I installed the Redarc brake controller and it’s awesome and the proportional braking with the sensor works amazing.
Does the factory brake controller also have a sensor for proportional braking?
Overall it all cost me around $400ish. That’s for the 7 pin, brake controller, hose, cooler, etc. and approximately 10 hours of time.
If comparing to the factory option and not pricing in the cost of AWD which is at the time I think $2k I think that puts the factory option right around $800...
So where I cut the line those hard lines actually go back up about 10-12 inches and overall the level of the cooler placement just happens to be slightly lower (by accident/random placement lol)
And this is why I love forums, didn’t even know they had that with bypass built in, I just ordered the same size cooler that has the built in bypass. Luckily the swap out isn’t super crazy since I mounted it in a pretty accessible spot. Will just have to pinch the hoses to prevent too much fluid...
I added an update comment with new temps after installing back the splash guard which seems to heat up the trans quicker and makes it noticeably hotter even with it being 58 degrees outside. Overall I’m seeing a decrease of about 25 degrees from stock which is perfect especially when I...
I’m not entirely sure how to update the original post. New to all of this. But the testing I did for those temps were all with the splashguard off at 80 degrees ambient.
Today I did my usual early morning commute to work with the splash guard back on and there’s a noticeable difference.
Early...
Added an external transmission cooler to a Non 4K Tow Maverick AWD. Made a video showing my thought process, figured it might be of use to some since I found no information out there of anyone doing this. Yes i ramble at times but wasnt meant to be a “tutorial” lol.
Findings: in 80 degree...
Selling 17” Blizzaks 225/65/17 for $450. They were used for one winter and now that I got all terrain tires for my Maverick I’d rather just sell these. They have most of the tread still since they were barely used. I’m located in Long Island NY.
Selling my original set of 18” Lariat Rims, Tires and mounted TPMS sensors for $1,000. I’m located in Long Island, NY. Removed them at 5,300 miles. Rims and tires are pretty much in new condition, just normal road and brake dust.
