Looking for the 2006-up bezel with the passenger side airbag indicator hole on the upper right, no 4WD switch, in silver (which was called "steel" by Ford). Exact part number 7L5Z-1004302-JA. I'm collecting parts for a manual transfer case swap on my 2007 and would like to "delete" the 4WD...

My clip-on cell phone holder broke the driver's side HVAC louver/vent on my 2007 Ranger and I was looking for replacements. While browsing, I noticed the yellow circled wiring harness placeholder on the back of the instrument cluster trim panels, it's on most Ranger/Explorer parts listings I've...

I am looking for the lower center dash piece from a 2010-2011 Ranger (maybe as far back as 2008?) after they added traction control as pictured below. I want to re-purpose the traction control button for other purposes and my '07 only has the audio aux port. Older versions had the passenger...

In case you need to replace any bearings, seals, etc: https://cobratransmission.com/m5r1-bearing-gasket-and-seal-kit-all-5007001-1 If you need synchro rings, it's tricky because one of them (maybe 3rd gear?) is impossible to find for the HD because it's some 2-piece design. Been a while...

Will do, thank you!

If someone has replaced their Borg-Warner electronic shift transfer case motor recently, please let me know if you still have the old one and could cut off the wiring pigtail and send to me at my shipping cost. Thanks!

I dug into the manual vs electric t-case diagrams to see if the manual shift cam and the electric shift shaft could co-exist and be frankenstein'ed together. Spoiler -- they cannot. So I've abandoned the rotary encoder option. I was just throwing the Behemoth module out there as an argument...

You know... If you can just slap one of those Behemoth Drivetrain manual shift conversion kits on an electric case, then I should be able to do what I described and just leave the motor harness unplugged, right?

As far as I know, my '07 doesn't have traction control (actually, I didn't know the '10-11 even had it). The Forscan programming is a good idea, I'll explore that. But the fact that even the older 2003 setup had a 4-Low status output direct to the PCM makes me think that the truck "needs" that...

Hi all -- there are a lot of threads here about swapping out an electric-shift BW1345 transfer case for the manual-shift version. I have an electrical/electronics-related question. I have a 2003 FX4 L2 donor truck complete with all of the required mechanical parts in excellent shape (body...

If you can wait for the products to be back in stock, go with Mastercoat rust sealer and then AG-111 topcoat: https://nomorerust.com/store/rust-stop-paints/8-mastercoat-pemanent-rust-sealer.html https://nomorerust.com/store/finish-coatings/9-mastercoat-ag111-frame-paint.html If you're...

This remote start has a dedicated remote, as well as a PATS/immobilizer bypass module. The PCM looks for the clutch pedal position switch to break the ground connection, indicating that the clutch is depressed - that is what I need to work around since the remote start unit does not have a...

Hi All, I purchased a Powercode Gen-2 ("Ford Genuine" 7L5Z-19G364-AA) remote start with the correct wiring harness for my 2007 Ford Ranger (4.0L FX4) with 5-speed manual transmission. I've tracked down the installation manual and wiring diagram and I am mostly good to go. The OEM remote start...

Hey there! How did this project go? My truck is still sitting and I'm finally getting ready to actually do the rebuild, haha.

Thanks for the o-ring info!
