I bought one from Team Ford in Vegas and they had it in stock. Didn't come with the studs but just used a couple of washers to space it off the frame and worked like a champ. I think Tasca has them too.

got mine from tasca. agreed about 15 minutes to install. hardest part was getting spare down out of the way, which was nothing.

mine was severly corroded. not as bad as others that have posted but it would have been soon. dont know how thick the aluminum on the base is but there is corrosion at least 1/8 to 3/16 deep. probably pretty close to the point where water would get in.

i highly reccomend changing this out.

Yes mine came with the new studs. My case had alot of corrosion on the back and I could see a small crack on the side. My Edge is no longer picking up the P1233 code. My truck had stalled on me in a drive thru car wash earlier this winter, that was my first clue it was going bad. Then a couple of weeks ago my edge picked up a code. I tried my local dealer and they still haven't gotten the module in. I called Tasca they had them in stock.

when it rains here it really rains. lots of big puddles and flooded areas. really not the time that i want to get water in to a spot that will shut the engine down. i am feeling alot better with it replaced.

now i need to sneak up on the spark plugs. cant get the courage up for them.
