    Good to know, The part number Part No: 6M2Z-17A954-A - List Price $31.81 from the earlier post is a good Ford part number and any Ford dealer can get it. The Anti Tow Hook lobby is stronger in the States and Ford was happy not to make it standard.

    Sounds Very nice, Remember the amount of heat produced is watts. So the amount of power is the same for 12 volts and 110. Ten amps kills one of your batteries in less than 10 hours. Looking forward to the finish with the pre expedition pictures.

    Cool. You said you wanted it for the electric Blankets That would make quiet operation important

    My set has 32000 on them, The winter set has 10000 plus. The summer set are getting thin but are wearing well. Next spring will need a new set. I would add side wall height if I could.

    That's cool. You now have 100000KM till the next chance at Odometer immortality !

    Looks very nice. You want to load the inverter and make the fan work. It looks like the inverter will be right under someone's head. It would be an unpleasant surprise on a very cold night in the middle of South Dakota.

    The voc requirements have forced the producers to switch to water based coatings. The paint chipping and blisters have affected all the major car manufacturers at some point. If rust and crossion is an issue several companies 3m, Fluid Flim, and a Canadian product Crossion Free all are good to protect that area of the car.

    That is a nice set up. You have to make sure the kit you get has all the stuff. Some do and some don't

    Thanks. If you ever get on a really small poorly lit road make a video

    They could but there would have to be a way to make a camber adjustment if the Height is raised a lot.

    Nice . Can't wait to see the rig with all the gear aboard.

    You will not get a 15 inch rim to fit the front hub because of the brakes . The 215 60 16 will add a 1/2 inch to the sidewall height . A 215 65 16 will add just under 1 inch to the sidewall. This tire will rub the body on some tight turns. The TC will need a mechanical lift to get a big change in the ride height.

    With the seat in and you driving in the right seat is there any issue ? If there is no issue then you should be able to find the sensor in the seat and mount it under the letter tray with the harness plugged in

    The unibody can be straightened. The complexity of all the systems makes the retail process so expensive that the car is totalled. Then if it is good enough a body repair that does salvage rebuilds will buy it and rebuild it and then sell it with a salvage title.

    The factory 0% was avalible when I purchased mine. The other price Iincentives that were available made the 2.9% loan from another bank a better deal over all. So you have to work out all the financing paths to be sure.

    Hey guy's here's a link to the last time we talked about the tow hooks. with a photo and a part number. http://fordtransitconnectforum.com/gallery/image/865-tow-hook-03/

    I will pass on the suspension lift, The Safety loop for the strut is disabled.

    If it is listed in the parts manual then is can be serviced.

    The switch to electric Vehicles would happen much faster if the battery was standard sized and replaceable like all the battery tools Then the charging would not be an issue and range anxiety would dissapear.

    The fog we get around here is mostly in the fall and the morning. The fog lights are most useful in a snow storm to help the low beam's. The fog lights on My TC are turned off automatically when the High beam are engaged. Beta Don What is the range of your Electric Car?
  21. G B L
    Sounds like you have one that failed and you should be able to find it. Keep us posted

    Hey its a TC just fold the seats and make an overnight camping trip out of it

    I suspect that Ford has learned its lesson after badgering Firestone into allowing the explorer tires to be run under inflated. It caused Firestone to go Bankrupt. The tire load rating on the 215-55-16 load range 97 tire on the TC is 1609 lbs at 51 lbs. At 42 lbs the load would be 1325 lbs or 5300 lbs. Right in line with your pick-up reference. The hotter the temperature the more important maintaining the pressure is.

    The tires run their best at the correct pressure. They run the coolest at the right pressure no mater what the outside temp.

    Too bad worth a try
