Been reading up on ESP shift issues and this one seems to shift fine. Fingers crossed! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

F250 guy 107 Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Welcome to the form, I couldn't find the photo bcsman had put up it was a photo of retros post I think but couldn't find it, I was going to say IF it's like the ranchers or rincon far as the shift motor you can take it off, take the gears our "remembering where there went before" and put white lithium all temp grease in and after you reassemble it, should shift much smoother of course assuming you have a shifting issue. Or you just want it to shift better. Edited January 31, 2021 by F250 guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcsman 1,409 Posted February 1, 2021 Hey F250, my photo is 4 posts up ^^^^ the thread on prepping ES Hondas.....lol Oh gee just noticed F250 white lithium is a no-no to use, synthetic grease which has a greater temp range and lasts longer is preferred..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jemmons467 179 Posted February 1, 2021 Welcome, yes @retro thread for prepping your ES shift is great and worth the time. Also make sure you have a good battery, especially during the colder months 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
