    10R60 Transmission

    Check your trans fluid level my dude. Then you've got a couple options for building it, if you take that route. RSA or Pure Drivetrain Solutions. https://rsarace.com/products/stage-1-10r60-customer-supplied-core https://www.puredrivetrainsolutions.com/ford Pure doesn't show the 10R60 on their...

    Wider tires?

    Hey @UNBROKEN - sorry for the ping... relevant to thread... I've got a set of BC Forged wheels, 22x10.5. I'm seeing two options for tires right now at 305/35-R22: the MPSS and obviously the Lionharts. I'm considering going with a 295/40/22 which would allow me to run Michelin - Pilot Sport All...

    Beefing Up Transmission - Torque Converter Question

    Well, there are trans options out there if you wanna plunk down the cash. https://www.puredrivetrainsolutions.com/ford-transmissions offers a 10R60 build (although their site only shows 10R80 rebuilds). I believe @hellhorseperformance has done a handful of 10R60 builds as well.

    10R60 Transmission

    This is why people like manual transmissions. There’s like 3 or 5 things that can fail, all mechanical, all easy to diagnose. Anyways. @TMac what are your thoughts on the likelihood this can be solved with a built transmission? That’d solve the issue if it were related to clutch engagement? But...

    Transmission Problems and Recent TSB, Broad Model Application

    Quite the document… it appears to state the cause is essentially unknown and the recommendations are to update the PCU, TCU, and then rebuild the transmission if symptoms are still exhibited.

    10R60 Transmission

    TMac: I have the ZFG Performance 93 octane tune. When I launch, there's a bit of wheelspin. In other news: the trans fluid is now at 3.5. I'll update the thread if I have additional slip events. I'm sure I will. I should probably just not launch at 100% until I bite the bullet on a built...

    10R60 Transmission

    I've read all those threads (and your posts in them, which I appreciate) as I'm attempting to diagnose this issue, I think the part I'm not understanding is why my particular transmission would have such a low threshold for slipping. I "only" have a perf tune and an intercooler. Meanwhile there...

    Good notes, thank you!

    10R60 Transmission

    The slippage happens with traction control off, but I'm sure I have no idea what is wrong or if traction control being "off" means anything to the transmission or torque converter. The only mods I have are a ZFG tune and intercooler. It'd be nice if we could collate some data on this instead...

    10R60 Transmission

    Oh, uh, are you asking me? Yes, this was in my post: Also I'd like to note that if you check the fluid when the car isn't running and isn't as warm, the level is MUCH HIGHER on the stick. With the engine off and the trans a little cooler, the fluid was at the "2" mark on the dipstick.

    10R60 Transmission

    My 2021 ST is slipping in-gear as well. With a tune, it wouldn't shift 1-2 at WOT reliably. I even had a 3rd gear WOT run slip and go straight to redline. It usually shifts fine at lower power levels and when I'm not at WOT. I just checked my trans fluid in my driveway. It's between 4.5 and 5 -...

    Transmission Rebuild Options?

    Hey folks, I'm working on troubleshooting some transmission issues right now and for fun, I'm researching rebuild options. If you know of more options or details than what I have below, would you post them? I'm specifically interested in options that increase reliability at higher HP/torque...

    Front grill with no Ford logo?

    Thank you for the responses! That looks worse than I imagined. Hm. I like your ST delete!

    Front grill with no Ford logo?

    Hey folks, I've been looking around aftermarket sites and I was hoping to find what looks like a factory grill but with no Ford logo. I assume this doesn't exist, but wanted to ask y'all =).
