Ya, yours is a special case because of the original rack failure. Interesting you had config errors w/ABS, or was that just codes related to the original failure?
I think it has to do with faults prior to me flashing the rack. I had a bunch of faults because of the sccm module being in error.
I am just going to use a ratchet strap and anchor some point (like the seat) to the bottom center of the steering wheel.
Ford service manual says to replace everything... but nobody does. It would probably be difficult and expensive to get some of them. Loctite if a concern.
Aren't those called rivets? (J/k)
Let me know when you want to do the swap! I am working on getting my old laptop to work Fdrs software. Otherwise I am using my desktop.
It's much easier to use Fdrs than forscan. It takes a few minutes for the Fdrs license to process through, which threw me for a curve ball.
If you can use Forscan effectively, FDRS will be a walk in the park... It's way more intuitive and easy to use
I need to open a shop and get a lift just for personal use.So rack swap party at @Snacktime house then
My Bronco is reportedly in Ohio, hopefully heading to Richmond soon.
That's sorta what I did... When I wanted to build a shop on my land, the county zoning was so stupid I would have ended up with little more than a 2 car garage not tall enough to house a lift.. (Out buildings not allowed to be higher than my ranch style home)...
Have you considered a pit? I used to have access to a decommissioned bus depot with a 4' deep, 3 foot wide, 100 foot long pit. It was epic for doing work. You could even get under cars while they were still strapped and running on the dyno if need be. Not 100% as good as a lift, but a cheap and effective substitute.
I did consider a pit, if I had built a shop at the house, that's what I would have done, butt I do allot of suspension work on Jeeps, Scouts, and now Broncos.. and I'm not a spring chicken any more.. So a lift is kinda a must for me..
