In addition, I’m using Tire diameter for my comparisons. So wheel diameter is incorporated into those numbers. I realize that the car dot see wheel diameter.
I’m one of those experiencing electronic problems due to wheel/ tire changes. I went with 20x10 285/35/20 front & 20x11 305/35/20 rear. I lost my pre-collision assist & both types of cruise control. Ford said it was due to larger diameter tires in front affecting the windshield camera that views...
I drove speed limit + 10 mph. May have done some 11-12 hr days. That was I-40 from NC to LA. Straight shot. Overnight in Nashville, El Paso. Hit Las Vegas afternoon of 3rd day. Could have gone on to LA but stayed over. So, correction, actually pulled in to LA at lunchtime on 4th day. Sorry for...
These cars are way too technical and computer driven. I can’t imagine all the error codes and unthought of problems you would encounter by changing transmissions. I just changed wheels & tires & now I done have cruise control or pre-collision assist. Major hassle! Get the DH manual & enjoy. Life...
I’m from NC. Now in DE. I’ve driven cross country round trip 4 times. Southern route through GA, AL, MS, LA, TX (goose bumps seeing the Deep South, Alamo a must see). Middle route on I-40. Nashville is a must stop. Beale St music scene in Memphis is cool. Last trip was northern route - PA, IL...
Check out Race Ramps. They have several options. I have them for my show car to get it high enough to get my floor jack under it & a set to for ramp clearance on my trailer.
I recommend the Escort 360c. Firmware updates over WiFi. Not detectable by police radar detector equipment (handy in VA). Long range detection. 360 degree coverage. Multi-signal detection. Good POP detection. POP is short burst radar blasts that some cheaper units & good name units with older...
If the BCM is defective, I say push them for a good deal on the Dark Horse & take the money back & get the DH. You have some leverage. I’m sure they don’t want Ford Mother Ship to know they delivered it to you before the recall was done.
Looks like a judgement call. They may be ok or they may get brittle & break. If not too expensive, probably worth a try. Maybe someone with knowledge of plastics can weigh in. I think we had someone with extensive knowledge in a previous post.
