:LOL::LOL: Not to worry, I'll get some sound clips eventually. Either will use the iPhone or get my good digital camera out of storage.

I figured that was the case. Probably not a big deal though, since 409 cleans up real easy with ScotchBrite if it starts to get brown at all. This this kit is easy to get at, so it shouldn't take much to wipe it down as necessary for a nicer look. Yeah, mine will be kind of similar to the MBRP...

Great to hear! I'm thinking mine might be a bit too loud with the MRT H-pipe, but will be looking forward to hearing it first. Might just have a local shop weld the resonator back in and enjoy the new mellow sound. Definitely looks much nicer than stock.

The rep at Gibson threw in the shirt for me since I put in the effort to promote the kit on a couple forums as well as some Facebook groups. It definitely helped their sales, which was nice to hear. Got a bit more of a discount on mine, too. Glad your band clamps worked. Mine were too big, so...

Mine was $15 on eBay, but that's why I posted the p/n so it could be searched in other locations. EDIT: still the same place on eBay ---> Ford Escape cargo net

My kit finally showed up today despite being listed for Saturday. Looks great and the tips will be a nice change. Unfortunately, the band clamps I have are one step too large, so I have to run up to NAPA and see if they can exchange them. Was going to install it today, but maybe tomorrow if the...

You don't have to take my word for it, but those low-profile versions really suck. They attach poorly to the driver and passenger doors (many out there have had them fly off), and when you drop the window a 1/2" or so, there is a big gap at the front, which defeats their whole purpose. I put it...

Should have mentioned that the net I have is actually listed for the '13-'20 Escape, but fits perfectly. I found it on eBay a year or so back and it was dirt cheap (may still be on there). Otherwise, here's the Ford p/n through Tasca...

The specs are right in the owners manual.

It’s an External Torx.

Sure will - and hopefully better than that one ^^^^^!! Still shows it will be delivered tomorrow, but it’s supposed to be rainy all day. If Sunday is nice, I’ll be on it for sure.

I think the ‘22 models currently on dealer lots (if they are actually still there), won’t have VIN’s that even register in the Ford parts system yet. I’ve found some that were listed as ‘21 models (eBay as well), and those VIN’s should work. Still, some of the parts that are Timberline specific...

There isn't going to be a practical way to fab up any other carrier to fit this chassis, especially from the Mustang. There is serious support on the front end of the Explorer housing. As I mentioned before, the most practical way to put a Torsen diff with the correct 3.58 gears in to an ST is...

I believe welded, as in one piece with non-serviceable gears. Here is a quote from the service manual: This is an open differential. It has the normal internal spider gear design that will allow a speed differential between the rear wheels when cornering. The open differential has the ring...

Coincidentally, just got shipment notification that mine will be here Saturday. Unfortunately, the warm spell coming tomorrow will be short-lived, so I'll be looking forward to breaking out my reciprocating saw on chilly Saturday. Still have the MRT H-pipe attached, so I'll be curious how it...

For someone who is such a JLT nut-swinger, you sure are way too concerned about what Mishimoto is doing. I passed along the information I had, and since it's a new release and purchased on a pre-buy, I figure it will show up soon enough. Couldn't really care less.

It's a great differential, but one more thing to add that came from a rep at Torsen: I believe the OEM ring gear is actually welded to the differential in the Explorer's factory rear. That being said, I don't think you'll be able to source the gears or remove the ones you already have (or if you...

Stalker alert. He quoted my 'connected and all-knowing' information right in his post (This will help you ---> Linky).

That’s a generic message - have received it a few times. A phone call gave me different information.

Well, since I should have apparently run it by you: got it lightly used for much less than its new cost. Figured I’d see if it would change my opinion on the product line. It didn’t. The Mishimoto kit coincidentally came out at the same time and saved me from fabricating my own bracket. Easy enough.
