You do you. Somebody wins the slot machines, but they don't build casinos on winners and the same goes for warranty and insurance companies. If they still offered the lifetime warranty, maybe. Insuring the gap between the factory warranty and the end of the extended warranty is, again, a long...

This. I've worked for both a casino and a warranty company and casinos pay out more of the money they take in than warranty companies do. The people pointing out how expensive vehicles are to repair...you know the warranty companies know that as well, right? They aren't losing money. When...

This. And most aren't skid plates, they are to protect the intercooler from debris vs hold the weight of the vehicle.

Ford considers the jellybean EV a "Mustang". Does that make it a "real" Mustang? I didn't forget, I just think that was a mistake. It dilutes the name, and it makes shopping online harder when Rebels clog up the PW search results. Rebel should have continued to be it's own trim level like in...

It's a Rebel with a front locker and antisway bar disconnect. It costs them nothing to offer, it's all off the shelf parts that require no new R&D or certifications. It competes directly with the F-250 Tremor diesel, though Ford figured out how to have a diesel *and* a winch which continues to...

Close numbers because they are in the same family, but most of the guts are different. Same gear ratios, though, just beefed up to take the extra torque. The ZFs are also different. ZF 8AP for diesels and 8HP for gas. Given that diesels are slightly more than double the torque specs of gas...

The Power Wagon never had the 68RFE, that was for diesels. 66RFE is what's in the 2012-2018 PW, then the ZF in '19. So you guys are talking about different transmissions.

Mechanically or chemically. Mechanically, you disconnect the heater hoses and going against the normal flow direction use a garden hose and/or low pressure air compressor to push stuff out. Chemically you put some RMI-25 in the system, it latches on to the stuff causing the blockage and then...

It's a diesel, isn't it? Low pressure pump in the tank, then a high pressure pump up before the injectors. The fuel filter is on the low pressure line.

Modern fuel injection is very high PSI compared to Ye Olden Tymes, I don't think anything has a serviceable filter outside the tank any longer.

Power Wagons don't need a lift for 37's, but do need different rims than stock and you *may* have to do a little trimming of a pinch weld. Plenty of Youtube videos showing where to trim if you need to. CJC offroad has Method rims with the correct offset to run 37s, and I'm sure others do as...

Small passages and sediment. It's debated if it's casting sand or precipitate from the coolant.

Flush your heater core first. By far, the more common failure on 6.4L trucks is clogged heater cores and the first symptom is less heat on the driver's side.

I'd give that a go, then. I'm going with the AEV snap myself once I order my 35". I don't care about all the other stuff alphaOBD does nor do I want the complexity of dealing with changing all the settings through that interface, getting the extra cables, etc. I think the AEV looks much...

Did you reprogram the truck to know that? Something like the AEV prosnap?
