Since I was changing my engine oil at 22,000 I decided to wait the extra 2,000 and do the PTU then also.
I was advised to change the PTU fluid every 20-30,000mi and now I know why. There was quite a bit of metallic particles in the gear oil.
Sorry about the reflection.. Best pics I could...
I did a bit of searching and found that some people are using the FL-400S, instead of the FL-910S.
Pros:
1) Larger size/capacity
2) 80% efficiency @ 20 microns, compared to 50% @ 35 microns.
3) Same gasket ID and OD sizes.
Cons:
1) 20PSI pressure relief valve, compared to 14.5PSI
I'm not sure...
My 2.0 has started getting the odor of crankcase gasses in the cab and it's driving me crazy, trying to figure it out. The only modification I've made, is the addition of a catch can. Before you rush to judgement... All the connections for the catch can are tight and I cannot see/smell it...
We were on the road yesterday and the display screen just started flickering. Nothing I've ever seen it do. Of course, I only managed to get 3 seconds of video, before it stopped and it did not return. Anyone else have this happen?
This is not my Maverick, but the pics were shared with me. He accidentally backed into a short concrete filled post and couldn't see it in the camera, or mirror.
I managed to hit 1,000 miles today and decided to do my first oil change.
After watching Blake's FX4 oil change video, I was curious to see how I could pull the filter without spilling oil on top of the rear skid plate. You can't. Even if the truck were level and on a lift, the oil would...
There's a pretty smart guy around here, that explains how to prime your filter *After* you install it on the vehicle.
Kudos to you @FORD BOSS ME ! I learned something today..
I'm not one for doing videos, but I try to document installs whenever possible. I bought the Rexing V1P-4K dashcam while my Maverick was still on order, so I'd have it when the pickup got here. I wasn't planning on it taking two weeks to get it installed. Before this install, I had the V1P from...
Hello all..
I managed to suck down the whole 3GB of complimentary data in under two weeks. I had already signed up for the unlimited plan on Tuesday, 11/30.. Once the complimentary plan ran out, I was told that the unlimited plan would automatically take over. It didn't.
Has anyone else run...
I've seen some Mavericks getting two of them and some were missing all together.
I only got one with mine. How many did you get?
I sm referring to the pigtails that connect to the bed wires that come on the Maverick.
Performing Maverick mods seems to be some good physical therapy! It's not painless, but it feels good to be doing something again!
I remove the toolbox from the pile of waiting mods and got to work. I did not take any pictures during the install (my bad) but the included instructions were 99.9%...
After my wife stating the fact that we just got this thing yesterday, I decided that it was time to start the mods!
Ordered a "Bullet antenna" from cravenspeed.com and it's on now..
As you may know, I picked up my XLT yesterday. When I folded the tonneau cover up, I tried fitting the prop rods with no luck. Knowing that no one there would even have a clue, I figured you fine people would be better to ask.
Here is what I get, when I try... Sliding pieces are all the way up...
I just got off the phone with my dealer and was told that Ford just started requiring Ford surface care for all new vehicles. He said that this just started within the last month. It's a $795 charge..
Anyone else hear of this?
Since I'm already on the reflective white tailgate lettering, I am considering making a decal for the back window from it also. I'm looking to see if the MTC logo is do-able as a decal, but will get this done in the white first:
What do you all think??
When I ordered my Maverick, I knew it would be a while before I actually got to see it. Once it was built, the email stated that the delivery estimate was November 15th-22nd. Once shipped, they changed it to 11/29. I just checked the tracker again and it now says 11/25.
I'm good with the...
