thats what i was thinking and suggested but he said he doesnt want to be responsible for it if it breaks. So im like uhhhh how sit going to break youre not gringin off alot only like 1/16 inch. one or two passes with the grinder. Idk he wants to know what my brother in law says because hes a master ford tech. So ill just say he said grind it. Haha

Grind it if you have to, I worked at Ford for awhile & sometimes we have to make tools or make parts work

Oh me to. But i have faith. even thought i should not. If the Motorcraft is a bust then hes grinding it because there is now way im not having a truck for two weeks. And Also if the motor craft one is a bust i will be very sad with ford and the ****ty as parts they have gave me. but these ppl have over 1000 transactions with 99.9% pos feedback and they are from georgia. So its closer than Cali.
