I've really liked the UPR drain plug.

It really kicked my ass today, my wife too.
I got some kind of bug in late October, '19. If it was Covid, it was quite uncomfortable for about 36 hours. Late spring of '20 I fell for the vaccination warning (mistaken impression you had to be vaxxed to fly). No ailments until winter of '22. Tested positive for Covid, but it never became more than an aggravating cold. The second vaccination hit harder than the bug itself.

I recently contracted RSV from my baby granddaughter. I was visiting, she had a cough and a couple of days later, my daughter had her tested and it came back as RSV. By then, I was sick. Constant sinus drain and high temps, especially at night. I didn't get a good night's rest for 10 days. This then led to immune system inflammation which exhibited symptoms similar to a stroke. Luckily it was diagnosed as Bell's palsy brought on by nerve inflammation. I never had Covid, so I can't compare, but you do NOT want to get what I had if you're over 55. I'm still having sight problems which is why my posting on here has been limited for a couple weeks.

Well I thought my last 2 days were total crap but just like the old saying, it could always be worse. @TMac , hope you are all better now.

Did get the wheels installed today but will have to wait to get some better pictures once I feel better and can wash it up.

RSV sucks. My son got it when he was 2 and gave it to my daughter that was 6 weeks old at the time. She ended up in the ICU for almost a week because of it.

I am glad you're ok, I have had both RSV and Covid, and RSV was MUCH worse.

Had the drivers window switch due to peeling chrome. Also had the left cat replaced as it was cracked. And had an oil leak diagnosed and it turned out to be a cracked transmission cooler. Part should be here tomorrow but service isn't sure they will get the repair done. So might not get it back until Monday. Over all pretty happy with my dealers service. Big shout out to Eau Claire Ford.

How many miles do you have on it? That cracked trans cooler could have led to major problems. Good catch by your dealer's service dept.

13,000 miles. I knew there was an oil leak but getting to hard for me to crawl under it any more. Was surprised to find the transmission cooler is mounted on the side of the tranny.

I only wish my hearing was still 100%, I'd love to actually hear the stereo in this thing when you're done with it!

Is that the spare tire well? Are the wheel weights to add mass to area to cut the resonance down?
That’s the front floor pan. Both sides were cut. And yes on the wheel weights. Anything to keep the tactile response down…or hopefully nonexistent.

Finally got around to installing my intake. Process was pretty easy and straight forward. Took about 90 min. Rotated the tires too.
