    GVWR pics thread

    imgur.com/a/gmJWFZM Apparently, even without a tow package, I still have a GVWR of 6180lbs. What has everyone else got? Please post pictures if you have them. BTW, I found a Ford VIN decoding guide, if anyone needed help.

    Snow plowing

    Has anyone looked into attaching a snow plow to their Explorer? Apparently Curt make a front hitch for 11-15 MYs, a snow plow can be added that way. Should be fine for payload and front GAWR if its a light duty plow. Link to front hitch - Front Mount Hitch with 2" Receiver Or there is another...

    Recall 19S17 and front alignment q's

    Just had my 17 Base get the suspension recall (19S17). Dropped it off at my local dealer, noted mileage and exterior condition with pics. They only had it a few hours, but had a few questions. 1) it picked up 3-4 new scratches that were not there before - I spent yesterday afternoon washing...

    Fabricating replacement trim w/fiberglass

    I've noticed on my 5g that the trim is flimsily attached and is starting to come loose on the tailgate/hatch. Is it realistic to fabricate replacement pieces from fiberglass to install in place of this crappy plastic? I am a rank amateur and have absolutely no idea where to start with this...

    Can 2011-15 roof rails be put on 2016+ ?

    Has anyone attempted to swap the flush roof rails for ones that have an air gap (to be able to tie things down) a la 11-15MYs? I know it seems niche, but mine are separating and I'd rather replace them sooner than have them fly off later.

    Securicode keypad

    Hi all, Pretty new to the forum and Fords, will be looking to add a few things to my base model once I can afford them (insert laughing/crying face): * upgrade to Sync 3 * add fog lights/bottom bumper lights * running boards (still deciding if worth the cost though) * puddle lights *...

    17 Base Sync 3 compatibility

    Which models/trim levels are able to have Sync 3 installed? I have a 17 Base, and it was pretty cheap and cheerful but I wanted to upgrade to a nicer nav system and centre console in general. Would anyone happen to know where I could find a compatibility chart of some sort? Or where I can start...
