Finally, I have the 550lb spring upgrade on the front and been wanting something for the rear too.
My only complaint with Eibach is with their higher weight springs, you lose max adjustability they say because the stiffer springs have a taller compressed stack. Pretty annoying when you are...
Thanks that's good news. I keep hose clamps and tape on board so I should be able to seal up the boot. That would be awful to ruin the rack too from a water crossing or mud.
Do the raptor inner tie rods work on a non raptor with HOSS 3.0 rack? I wanted to get a spare inner 3.0 tie rod for Super Celebration West but after I ordered it Ford cancelled it due to a nationwide backorder. The Raptor one looks like it might be longer but maybe it can thread into the outer...
What mpeugeot said.
If you do use the ProCal tool, you may still need to follow up with Forscan to fix the missing PSCM as-built settings anyways until Ford figures that issue out.
But also, you can get the Ford Performance engine/transmission tune plus the procal tool on sale for about the...
Shrockworks (bought by Brave Offroad recently). They only have 2 frame mounts per side, and I hammered them pretty hard on Steel Bender in Moab. I'd like to switch to something else but it's not in the budget right now after all the steering stuff.
I just finished installing my HOSS 3.0 rack today, along with a diff drop from Broken Innovation here on the forum.
I used the ProCal to program it but I ran into the same problem that Oldhippie had. For some reason ProCal refused to write the PSCM As-Built settings, and I'd end up with U1110...
I want to share my experience here in case others have this same issue. I had C1110 and U2100 in my PSCM after attempting with the ProCal method. It seemed no matter what it wasn't writing the As Built info after attempting multiple times.
I was able to fix this by loading factory As Built data...
I've done some rock crawling and I've found my comfort limits. Chinaman Gulch in Buena Vista is my maximum difficult that I'd like to go for a long time. My Bronco is my daily so I can't go too extreme. I have no interest in doing something like Moab Pritchett Canyon difficulty.
I suspect I'll...
I could do the FDRS route, but don't want to buy the connector and license if I don't need to. I have forscan and a wildtrak 3.0 vin ready to go though.
I just put in my order for the M-3200-WT. I plan on using my ProCal tuner to program it.
I saw someone on Bronco Nation mention that his steering wouldn't work with the engine performance tune, but it would work with the stock tune. Has anyone else had this issue with the ProCal 4 programmer?
Yeah I'm thinking the 3.0 rack first as well. It has the larger motor and tie rods, and I can still do the 74Weld stage 1 (or 2) kit in the future. There have been plenty of times in Moab where felt like I maxed out the 2.0 motor strength trying to turn (especially with front lockers) even just...
The Hoss 3.0 steering rack is around the same price range as 74Weld's stage one upgrade kit for the Hoss 2.0/3.0. If I have the budget to do only one or the other, what is everyone's opinion on the two options? Which would you recommend I go with?
My use-case is moderate lift on 37s with...
Thanks for verifying that! I'm adding a diff drop soon so I may look into adding a spacer to get just a little be more lift back out of them after that depending on CV angles.
Thanks for sharing that. The wording is still open to interpretation. The instructions already say not to use the top area of the threads, so it seems weird that he would reference 19mm from the top of the threads and not from where the instructions say. Maybe he implied from the max of where...
I've been trying to look into this and think about it some more.
Are you sure its 19mm of height is lost? It defeats the main purpose of getting the stiffer springs: to counter height loss from droop with higher weight. Could it be the mininimum height is 19mm higher due to the increased coils...
Does anyone have that graphic that shows the max adjustment height for the front coilovers for the 550lb springs?
I thought saw it earlier today when I didn't need it. Now I've been searching for 2 hours trying to find it and no luck of course.
UPDATE: According to another poster, the 550lb...
