After I stripped the center out of this planetary I upgraded to a steel 6 pinion.

Have to wonder if the rating is for engine torque, or full torque after it's been multiplied through torque converter and gear ratios. AA told me the output shaft of my manual trans might not be able to take the total torque of the system even with the stock 4.0. Personally I would steer...

They fail to mention that the truck will be in the shop to fix the DEF system just when you need it most. LOL

Did you do everything described in this post? https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/adding-police-engine-idle-secure-idle.472645/post-3737315

Do you have a flashing Anti Theft light?

These are the AGMs from Batteries+. No problem with the AZ heat.

I have run them in our Ram\Cummins for years. I usually get 6 to 7 years out of them. I can't remember the name off hand but I have been getting them from Batteries+. I also have had good luck with Optima Yellow Tops in the performance cars and in the Pumpkin.

Do you have any photos since the pictures were lost from the 1st post of this thread?

I just sent you a direct message.

The offroad tread looks good on there. :chug:

This thread shows one of the aftermarket fixes which helps support the rear differential: https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/steeda-555-8141-rear-differential-brace-450-shipped-usps-priority-in-the-us.506041/ There are a few different companies which make their own versions of this.

The 2 bolt system is stronger. Ford with their infinite wisdom decided that instead of addressing the problem they caused by eliminating one bolt, they would do a software patch which automatically engages the parking brake every time the vehicle is turned off. This is to keep the truck from...

My guess is that the stepper motor that drives the needle is going bad.

The winch mount turned out really well.:chug:

It's sad to see the runs fall apart since I haven't been able to participate. Unfortunately my eyes still don't work well for "off camber situations". I have trouble with much more than the height of a step ladder these days. Anyway, if anyone is going to Moab please post up. Char and I have...

I had hoped someone would offer a 3D printed armrest for the manual window Explorers. This is a nice alternative.

Our town is predominantly dirt roads including our own road. 50,000 miles on our 2020 ST and the only issue that could be releated to the roads would be rear shocks that leaked. Thing is that many people have had an issue with the leaky rear shocks even if they have never taken their Explorer...

Looks like a good time.:chug:

The swing away portion looks strong, but the bracket that holds the tire looks thin. My worry is that it would quickly fatigue and crack.

The body has definitely lost a lot of strength due to the rot. It won't be able to proect against impact nearly as well as it should. It's definitely repairable by welding in new steel. I would also check where the body mounts attach to the frame as that area is super important safety wise.

Got it. Yes that would work well.👍

Just wondering if you would want to combine all of these threads into one so that info will remain easy to find and not spread out.

Sounds like something is bent, or perhaps your bushings are worn to the point that the geometry has changed quite a bit.

Sounds like an electrical issue. I would start with the battery and cables to ensure there is no corrosion, and that the battery is holding a charge. Autoparts stores can test batteries for free.

Nice find. :chug:

The trick to get a full can into the system is to place the can in a bucket of hot tap water to raise the pressure in the can. As you know, the can gets colder and colder as you fill the system. It gets to the point where the pressure in the can is lower than what's in the system. Placing the...

You may wind up having to replace the hardline if you can't get the connection loose for the soft lines.

Do you guys have anything to lift the 2020 ST with?

Looking good!

I'm sorry to hear that. When I did a search for their phone number I saw a link to their BBB page. They have an F rating because they don't respond to complaints. :( I would try the attorney generals office in the state they are located in.

There is a phone number listed here: https://tascaparts.knoji.com/questions/tasca-parts-contact-information/

It's amazing what the proper suspension can do. There is a night and day difference in the before and after. :thumbsup:

Yes an over fill can cause seals to leak. Hate to say it, but good luck getting them to step up to fix the issue they caused. Not sure where you got the fluid capacity from, but the maximum capacity is only achieved when the torque converter is dry. If they just pulled the pan and filter...

Sure is a beauty.

What, no Elite Explorer registry? ;) https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/forums/elite-explorer-registry.28/

The issue is that when the seat is lowered fully it puts pressure on that panel. Outside of a redesign I don't see how it can be fixed using the stock components. That's why I added the screw.

Just wondering if this is the side panel on the left side of the seat you are both having issues with. If so my fix was to secure it with a black trim screw which screws into the bracket behind the panel. I drilled the bracket for the screw. This has held up for about 2 years now. That side...

Is this the left side panel of the drivers seat you are having an issue with? Very cool that you have been part of the Explorer scene since the beginning. Check this page: https://explorer4x4.com/1stexplorer.html
