manzov22 13 Report post Posted December 29, 2016 Thanks alot, i appreciate it. People on my line cant figure out how we are keeping up with KTP. They sped our line up and said production is going up so this has to be done. Schedule for us has gone down. We are trying to figure out if we are being lied to. Been 7 months and our schedule is no where near old levels. We are trying to get the correct info. Noone will tell us nothing true it seems on our end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waloud 22 Report post Posted December 30, 2016 I think our total production is around 780 a shift. Out of that, about 160 are Expeditions & Navigators. I haven't seen anyone to ask about the axle use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waloud 22 Report post Posted January 4, 2017 Rumor has it that we might be down for the Expedition/Navigator retool. I haven't heard any definite dates or how long. Unless sells drop, i doubt we will be down for long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manzov22 13 Report post Posted February 28, 2017 Im not saying they are bad. Im just trying to figure out why our number is down alot. We build a part for the f 250 and our schedule has been really low since the switch to aluminum. Pre aluminum numbers kept us pretty busy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pioneer 1,375 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 Are you sure you're the only supplier of said part after the switch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manzov22 13 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 Thats is a good question. We have done some research and came up with nothing. The only thing i can see is if dana took some of our work. Noone really know, mgt wont say anything. They act clueless on the issue. I have asked and they say no. Are you from ktp? Do you build f250? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waloud 22 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 There are rumors of 2-4 weeks off in July. We are running better, which means we are going less than 10 hours most of the time. They are cutting back on OT all over the plant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manzov22 13 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 Are you guys building 1300 f 250s a day or less? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waloud 22 Report post Posted March 2, 2017 Not sure on what the numbers are. Thinking around 1550-1600 total production a day. I could be wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
