My list of what I did:
Removed rear block for 1.25" lowering @ replaced U-bolts/nuts
SumoSprings: SSR-146-40 1000 lb Springs
Helwig 7788 Rear Sway Bar (0-2" lift)
Hard Tonneau Cover: Ebay Autobull/Amazon Carmocar
Rear Wheel Well liners
Front & Rear Splash Guards
Bed Extender: VLL3Z-99286A40-A...

In the meantime...
No - no other issues. Well I brought it to the dealer and they took a week, but fixed it under warranty. The issue was not the door switch - it was the power window control unit - PU5Z-14B291-BN. They said that Ford told them they had seen this sort of thing before and if it is not the switch...
I had an odd issue on my 3-month old 2025 XLT....my front passenger power window this week decided not to raise or lower from the driver's side control. I can raise/lower it from the passenger side door control. I can run all of the other (3) windows from the driver side, except that one. Ran it...
