No, I don't have the money to throw down 3 thousand dollars to build a part to make it back over a long period of time. All I was trying to do is offer a fix that would work for others. With the MM part, the owners wanted the fix and were willing to pre order. It took the $$$ burden off of me and I did it for everyone...not for me.

Chris, have you posted this in the F150 section also? I guess I could just go look.

No I have not, due to the fact that the F-150 -350 have a different pedal manufacturer and I am not sure what fails on them.

Really? I wouldn't have thought that. Is there another vehicle that uses the same pedal assembly? Or are we it? If so that's going to suck.

Well, you're not that far from me. Maybe we could meet half way sometime?

If we can get some more interest in this I would be glad to but at this rate I may just bag the idea. Too much work for one or two...

I am interested, looks like mine maybe just quit today. I played around with it for a while while I drove. It didn't work for a while and then all of a sudden started to work. My guess is that it is broken though, and it is a matter of time before it quits again.

I want mine fixed! My wife is 5'2" and I am 6"5'. One of the features I loved about the Expedition.

I love my Fords, but stupid little cheap parts like these **** me off about them. Sometimes I would like to just slap upside the the head whomever approved trash like this to be used in production vehicles. Oh wait... they are the "Professionals" they know what works.

It has been almost a year since I visited this issue, I keep getting interest at the shop on fixing this issue. As of today, we ordered the correct tap to produce these gears. We were told that the assembly is no longer available form Ford. I have not verified that as of yet but the tools are in the works.

I will not have pricing or availability for at least 2 - 3 weeks.

I also am still interested, depending on how expensive you have to sell them for.
