you absolutely need to account for the trailer tongue weight it’s weight added to the vehicle just as it would be for passenger or cargo 🙄. If you don’t you will likely be over rear axle weight.

They also put the 6.2/6.5 in “everything “ in the early 90’s including hummers those engines were notorious for crank issues so just because they go in everything doesn’t mean they are perfect. ( I hope this doesn’t start a converted gas engine talk)

So now that I’ve had time to actually compare GVWR of a handful of tow package explorers to mine that is not I’ve found that it’s the same at 6180lbs. The spring codes are the same except for the sport I looked at. The axle codes were also the same. it’s a different transmission but of the 5...

My humor towards towing

One step closer to hauling 10k tow haul button installed and fully functional. Next step engine oil cooler. Also can anyone provide PTU drilling measurements for a unit without one? Yes I have tried the search function but I must be doing it wrong because I’m not finding anything but...

If this is true how can I add a 20k goose in my pick up and still be ok in DOT’s eyes as well as fords? Why does the sales brochure say non tow package rigs can have the hitch added without oil cooler and tow 2k and if you add the oil cooler it’s 5k?

Yes that and I used a pick to pull that rubber boot back to get in there very good

Where the steer shaft goes through the firewall. I’d send a pic buck the mini bus is 200 miles away right now

I know the base install is. I’m just being silly based on reading what is said on here about towing installs. I’m talking with north country Ford about what what actually specs as required parts for the 5k capacity

Installed the hitch and wiring Need the tow haul button now and I should be good for 10k right🤔

Where the steering shaft goes through the firewall there is a rubber boot. Spray it will silicone see if it goes away. It did on our 16 a few weeks ago.
