This happened to me not long after I got my FX4. It was happening quite frequently. I finally topped it off and it went away. I noticed it though, it seemed to happen almost every time it rained. Hadn't happened in forever until yesterday when it rained and sure enough. Got a warning. Today...
My FX4 had one in the skid plate. It deformed and detached essentially I believe on my second or third oil change. Couldn't get it to stay in securely so I just took it out. That was around 10-15k miles. I'm at like 44k now. Pretty sure last time I looked it wasn't sold separately from the skid...
Because most countries in the Middle East and Russia, etc... don't have right to repair laws so they have to develop their own workarounds. Same stuff I deal with working for a German brand dealership and customers who are shipping things over to Eastern Europe and whatnot.
I'm from a JDM background and have put CAI's on many cars, including DIY setups that yielded several HP over what a $350 K&N Typhoon setup probably costs. With that said, #1, I got myself into a sketchy situation off-road with a friend, where I went through a mud bog too quickly and hit a pulse...
I work at a German vehicle dealership, and we have a gent from Central America who uses Chat GPT to make his stories sound better, but not for BS sake. Just bc his English isn't 100%.
Yes, because in normal driving conditions you're going to be pulling vacuum and not making any boost. Even under reasonable acceleration, you wouldn't be making peak boost. Only if you're really getting on it.
I've seen the GFC campers and they are cool, but I use the bed of my truck so often, I wouldn't want something permanently attached like that. Also for basically a RTT, $10k is quite a bit. Might as well just get a rack with an RTT. Also, the TukTuk is cool because it's an actual camper that you...
I guess I actually missed that. I have an XLT, but I imagine it would also work for a Lariat because it most likely bolts up somewhere around the front tow-hooks. However, in these pictures, it looks like it goes under the bumper and not into where the tow hooks are exposed. There are most...
I've looked into the Tuktuk. $16.5k for basically a shell. 5 gallon water jerrycan? $600 option. Basic electrical? Another $5k. Also, if you go to their financing page, it autopopulates the $16.5k at a 20 year loan term at like 8.5% interest. This is why I decided to start building my own. Not...
I've taken my 23 XLT FX4/4K through mud halfway up the doors and through some creek crossings following my buddy's lifted Taco that you could limbo under. No issues whatsoever besides having to clean a bunch of crap off the bottom afterwards. I'd post a video, but Ford can't know until my...
I was gonna go with the Rough Country lift on my 23 XLT AWD/4k only because it comes with spacers as well as replacement struts and shocks, which would cover all the bases as opposed to just end-links and spacers. Pricing isn't too bad either.
