    Rear windshield wiper delete.

    Old thread but... For those of you that have done the wiper delete, did you do anything with the washer and/or the wiper control circuit (other than just unplugging the motor) ?? Thanks

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    My assumption was a slight amount of rotational movement, not to the extent that apparently it does. I will try not to “slap in” any more bolts.

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Hearing all your concerns… I took the bolt out to see if there were any witnesses marks from movement. Sure enough the bolt had made contact with the sub-frame on the side closest the the diff. So in an abundance of caution I will leave it out and try to forget about it. Thanks again for setting...

    The problem is the engineers designed in the two bolts for a reason but the bean counters took 1 out.

    BTW what are you guys that are “souping up” your power output doing with the bolt issue?

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Guys, there is no metal on metal. The bolt is 5" long but the sub-frame is only 5/8" from the diff cover and the sub-frame is about 3" thick, no real leverage. I have a hard time believing that the OEM 3 mounting points flex enough to cause my bolt to be a problem. I think of it like a heavy...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Added a bolt to the 1/3 bolt differential mount EDIT: and removed it per some advice from knowledgeable members of this forum I decided I would be the guinea pig… Since Ford isn’t going to install the proper sub-frame (and I will be Hwy towing and off road towing) I decided I would just...

    new items available on the site : Black Emblems and Owners Manual Wallets

    Answering my own question... The Helm manual is (I think) the same thing Ford use to provide, and yes it fits perfect in the Wallet. Thanks Whoosh!

    What kinda mod void warranty

    SoCal owners check-in

    No offense but how do you know since it's a 2023 "fix"? Just curious... that's just what they told me.

    Front plate/frame question

    I cut the tabs off and used the same frame and 4 screws as the back. Worked fine.

    Any 2023 Two Bolt Rear Setups?

    They (Ford) came back with the issue of the one bolt has been resolved with a "launch detune" and "auto parking brake." They will not do the replacement of the sub frame and second bolt. Soooo I guess I'll hope it doesn't break.

    Do you happen to know if the Helm manual is the same size and will fit? Thanks

    new items available on the site : Black Emblems and Owners Manual Wallets

    Mine didn't even come with a manual ("it's online") so ordered one from Helm but not sure if it fits the wallet but if it does I will be ordering one. Did anyone else get shorted a printed manual?
