I'm still far more partial to the column shift myself, but I'm so glad to see that these sorts of mods work so well. It's great to see plug and play options.
UPDATE: Well I finally got my truck back, the answer they gave me as to how they "solved" isn't super confidence inspiring...
Basically it was throwing codes for the squeeze sensors that sit on top of the fenders that allow the trunk module to detect closing pressure. Well he tested the...
Well it's like the title says, my hood stopped closing on its own. (I can obviously still manually guide it down and push it closed) But here's the weirdest part, it will open just fine on its own, but refuses to close.
So I first tried a 12V reset(disconnecting and reconnecting the 12V...
I genuinely don't think that my truck even has that piece, but I'll check it when I get the chance. Either way, I still can't imagine that stops liquids from finding their way past...
Oh this just keeps getting more interesting! You'll definitely have to keep us updated and post pictures, cause your plans are right up my alley.
If I could have ordered my Lariat with everything it has now, but a column shifter instead of a console shifter and a split front bench with jump...
Get some more wiring harness tape on Amazon, handy to have as the factory stuff often has really cheap adhesive. Also get some orange harness tape for high voltage harnesses when or if that tape lets go too. I had that happen to me up behind the fender.

Yeah I figured it was exactly the same on the standard Ford trucks, too. Honestly what a ridiculous design oversight and what a terrible place to run a critical body harness.
See now THIS is what I want in my truck! This was what I originally started the thread for! Definitely keep us posted on how it goes, cause I'm very interested!
Was doing some in depth interior detailing of my truck before I depart on my cross-country road trip and removed the door sill trim to get all of the dirt, sand and dust cleaned up that had worked its way underneath. In doing so, I discovered something very concerning: Due to an inherent design...
Same! Was gonna post about it, but the storm took out both our ISPs and one of our two cell providers as well! So were effectively left in the dark at least connection wise.
Power-wise our house has a full home EcoFlow backup system, but with no solar installed yet the runtime was limited...
I don't have my shop manual PDF readily accessible right now for detailed diagrams, but I can leave you with some of the pictures I took while doing the service. I've also included a picture of the box of one of the screw on filters so you can see the part number. (both motors use the same...
I have the MegaOhm Motorsports disable kit installed and my truck is truly silent. But the motors make a surprising amount of noise at low speeds, a combination of a whooshing and whirring sound.
So after further testing, I can't seem to cause any appreciable change in the pitch, volume or tone of the sound, even when side loading in corners, bumps, acceleration, deceleration, etc so I'm gonna just gonna leave it for now. I guess it also doesn't help that my schedule got busy and I'm...
