  1. replacing the fiber board trans cover with a metal one ?

    Removed it, it’s useless. I put on RCI aluminum skids plates for all the 4 wheeling I never do. Also added the catalytic converter guards.
  2. RCI Plates on 2018 F-150?

    The fiberboard thingy is I believe for sound deadening and maybe some aerodynamics. It is not meant as any sort of skid plate or protection. It is pretty much useless and will likely get torn off quickly if you do any off-road driving. I removed mine immediately, most folks do. I'm short on...

  4. Super 8.8 differential Gasket

    damn, sorry that didn't work out! I ended up not doing what I had planned. Replace front dif cover with Ford Raptor cover (has drain plug). Kind of an involved job, have to take out the electronic power steering rack to provide enough clearance. New front diff fluid Replace rear diff cover...
  5. Great engineering!

    whaaaaat? 4WD, 4W Torque Vectoring- or front or rear wheel drive- Hybrid drive, or electric motor only, or ICE only. seems simple enough....... Thanks for sharing, @HammaMan
  6. Super 8.8 differential Gasket

    I have been researching the heck of this as well. Mag Hytech sells the Lube Locker brand gasket for the Super 8.8 12 bolt. https://mag-hytec.com/product/ford-f-12-8_8-gasket/ Everything I've read just about everywhere indicates using RTV gasket maker is better. Specifically, Permatex 81182...

  9. 10 speed lugging in cold?

    I had transmission issues in my 2022 2.7EB with 17k miles now (the well-known erratic, harsh shifting issue), identified by the dealer as TSB 24-2101. They overhauled the valve body, replaced the CDF drum and a bunch of other stuff. That was about 4k miles and a few months ago. Because of what I...
  10. Had to say goodbye to my copilot...

    I especially love the 3rd picture! Sincerest condolences.
  11. Do you think I can get the dealer to do a Trans fluid change under warranty?

    ^ This When I took my truck, in, I asked about the TSB that I thought my issue fell into. The Service Manage was great and all, but he did say they would have to diagnose before any determination could be made. They couldn't just say, "ok, it sounds like TSB 12345, so that must be it". They...
  12. Do you think I can get the dealer to do a Trans fluid change under warranty?

    I learned a lot of good info from that post, it helped me know what to do. I posted my experience at Post #25.
  13. Do you think I can get the dealer to do a Trans fluid change under warranty?

    What you describe sounds the same as what I experienced. A well-known issue. Check this thread out. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/trans-clunking-when-down-shifting.25157/ Your truck has a 5 year 60k miles powertrain warranty.

    same as the above 2 posts. '22 2.7 with 17k miles. Quietest vehicle I've ever owned.

    Chewy has lots of choices. I found what I needed for $20. Takes about 3 minutes to put in or take out. And can be hosed off to wash. Chewy

  18. Trans clunking when down shifting

    Reporting back after the 1300 mile trip. The truck has almost 2k miles total (in Sport mode) since the trans work. I think the trip put the truck through its paces. 725 miles the first day. That included 275 miles across Interstate 15 between LA and Las Vegas where it was 116 deg. People haul...
  19. How Crazy Am I? Ram 1500 vs F-150

    I'm in CA also. Food for thought- Your 2023 has a 3 Year bumper to bumper and 5 year power train warranty from Ford, yes? So there is nothing to worry about for those coverage time frames. And hopefully your truck is a solid and reliable one so you won't be taking it in very often. Maybe never...
