    Pad change issue

    Changed the pads and rotors on my 2016 explorer today (z36 and centric premium).

Once installed and drove around I noticed the springs/clips are...

    Ford PTU's and Oil choices

    I have a 2016 Ford Explorer Limited with the 3.5 NA v6. I need to change my PTU fluid. It calls for 75w140 but due to the huge heat load and small filling capacity of this unit I was wondering if you guy would advise using something different. Maybe a synthetic 80w140 or even Redline Lightweight...
