    22 Iconic Silver in the driveway!

    I know you're in Law Enforcement and everything, but would it be okay if I "borrowed" your 21" wheels and red calipers? I'll give it back to you someday. Promise.:whistle::sneaky:

    22 Iconic Silver in the driveway!

    With just over 2,000 miles on my ST, it nearly matches the Stinger GT's MPG I had. I'm now getting a combined 19.5 MPG.(y)

    2022 Ford Explorer Platinum ST

    Personally, I'm against debadging of any type! I've owned several dozen cars over the years, never debadged one of them. That's just me.:cool: Great! Now they'll just take your entire vehicle to get at what's inside the lock box.:oops:;) p.s. I got tired looking at all the work you did. I...

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    Your report speaks volumes. Thanks for the eye opening data. Listen up people, his statement substantiates our poll result of 0.8% bolt shear and FORD's data of an even lower .094%

    That's what I understood to be the case.

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    You're wrong on both counts. It is neither. I was just responding to Tommyc's post, guess you missed that. Because it is a 4 bolter. Not all that complicated. My point exactly, you don't know. It doesn't prevent breakage, everyone here is already aware of that. Fact, not opinion...

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    Don't get me wrong, I really like the Whoosh design. But where exactly has it been track proven over any substantial length of time?

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    No one is 100% certain what the best option is yet because both the problem and the possible solutions are so new. It's true that if someone adds a non Ford part to their vehicle and something that's associated with it breaks, FORD could say (right or wrong) that it was the cause. Theoretically...

    2022 Ford Explorer Platinum ST

    You remind me of what I used to do! I did the usual brake jobs & tune up's, then graduated to replacing carbs, intake manifolds, shocks/struts, rear axles, shifters, transmissions, etc. Now, I don't even do my own oil changes. Lol Keep up the good work.(y)

    NEW Product Alert! The AWR Racing rear diff mount

    Unless someone tunes to 600 hp or tows 7 days a week, I don't get why 4 bolter's would install this.

    Got 'ya. That further strengthens the premise I was making.

    Salesman gave me the green light to tune (sort of)

    Bottom Line: If anyone tunes their vehicle with a non manufacturer tune, you could be denied a warranty claim on the engine and/or drive train. It's a gamble, could go either way ...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    I don't get it ... The 3.0L ST makes 400 hp/415 lb ft and has a 3.31 3.58 rear axle. The 3.3L Hybrid makes 318 hp/322 lb ft and has a 3.58 rear axle. So the lesser hp/torque combo has the problems, but not the higher hp/torque vehicle? The only way this could be is if the Hybrid uses a...
