    I was planning on ordering lowering springs from Eibach for my other car. Screw them. Plenty of other suppliers available.

    I'm not too fascinated with the fit and finish of this particular window.

    1) LWB and SWB doors are of different shapes, so no. 2) Yes, it's basically the same car.

    In Europe, yes, 5 or 7 seats, barn doors or liftgate, middle row comes in 2+1 configuration only, AFAIK: https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/details.html?id=263063664 https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/details.html?id=250747092 Should be configurable unless is completely restricted for the US market.

    TC rocker panels are stupid simple. Any good body shop will bend you a pair in an hour..

    That's why it's written on the door to insert and retract slow, to prevent the flap from getting damaged, losing vacuum.

    Yup, that would also take care of moth infestation problem.

    Asking for a friend?

    Not messing with wrong women helps with that.

    There really is no difference there. Both exceed your engine’s requirements by a large margin.

    Everything else is Motorcraft branded, always has been. This Castrol oli may very well be the OEM for Motorcraft brand and they decided not to renew the license deal.

    That's the same oil Ford recommends in Europe, there's even Castrol logo on my oil cap.

    Hot damn, I like the peg board conversion. Need to do one just like that. Looks like you had a blast building it.

    They’re all rather ineffective and subject to human errors. Minefield is the tool for the job.
  15. mrtn
    Yes, but it’s much higher, which is good if you need to move around inside the cabin.

    I would love an E-series van in case I need to haul something heavy or do a bus driver impression for gags. Once a year or less. My friend had a G-wagen but he sold it. So I have a performance panic now.

    The part number is somewhere on the box case, probably a visible spot. The old shape engine bay is quite open with no unnecessary cladding/tubing.

    Why don’t they include the OEM piece (which is superior every way) with US vans? I get it that they needed to circumvent chicken tax with the old shape but this shouldn’t be the case anymore or is it still?

    This is probably the first time in history this question has been asked.

    Hmm, pull the original headlight switch one click towards yourself, this is the fog light switch.

    Looks a lot like a new shape connect. 2014 onwards.

    Gen 1 is H4 afaik.

    Well, the S-MAX and Galaxy exist in Europe (both with 2.0 Ecoboost) but these are more like Executive minivans with regular rear doors, no sliders. I like S-MAX a lot but find no use for it.
  24. mrtn
    you’ll probably be able to determine the final drive ratio from the box part number.

    I don't know the reason for the color change but it's been explained by experts so that people are not worried about their trans acting up.
