My enclosed rig. WDH. Recently added Hellwig leaf helpers to improve the towing stance.

Installed the Hellwig 61916 Pro Series Helpers to assist with towing the enclosed trailer. Explored other options, but didn't want to swap out the stock leafs. Installation was relatively easy, except for the round rubber leaf bumper on my driver side was rusty and had to bed drilled out. I...

The 66 GT is back on the road after sitting in a garage for 36 years. New master cylinder, replaced a rusted front right brake hose, new pads, replaced rear drum wheel cylinder, new battery, oil change, rebuilt carburetor, new fuel pump, fuel sending unit, bulbs, readjusted shifter linkage...

Thanks. It's a factory GT convertible with disc brakes. I don't think the California Special was available until 1968. Car was built at the San Jose factory, sold at a Bay Area dealership (DSO 71) and lived its single owner life garaged every day. No rust, but it does have a few dings and...

My Raptor towing a 1966 GT Mustang Convertible. Acquired this candy apple red vintage beauty from the estate of the original owner.

Still enjoying the truck. Only have 14k miles on it since I travel a lot for work and drive a 1965 Mustang Convertible as my daily driver. Posting some glorious snow photos from the epic snowstorm that we had out here in CA a few weeks ago. Happy Trucking.

I never experienced any freezing issues with my latches, but the dealership performed the warranty work. I haven't noticed any difference visually or in operation.

I recently took my 17 in for the pillar insulation recall. That same morning, on the way to the dealership, my sun roof made popping noise while opening. I hadn't experienced any leaks, but I told them about the noise and they said they would take a look at the sun roof. The dealership they...

Once you get above towing 5,000 lbs, a proper weight distribution hitch will help considerably. I have a 24 ft enclosed car hauler and it was night and day towing with and without one. Also, when towing I found it also helps to bump up the tire pressure.

I have a 2017 Raptor and a 2019 Expedition (3.73 hd tow package). I am pleased with both transmissions in Normal mode as they are very similar. However, I prefer the Sport shift mode mapping in the Expedition. In my experience I have found that the Raptor holds gears much longer in Sport mode...

As someone else mentioned, you have to leave the key fob in the vehicle while running. I leave my key fob in one of the cup holders while the truck is in park, idling. I had a similar issue as all of the trailer lights and electronic brake controller working, but no 12v accessory power until I...

I have the same on my truck. So far I have been pretty happy with it, but I had to retighten some things after my first 6 months of driving.
