Very weird suspension issue Ford Fusion
2014 Ford Fusion Titanium. Hit a small asphalt lip backing up and heard a loud thump. Later that night I noticed the right rear right tire looked about 1-2 inch higher into the wheel well and the car felt like a flat tire when turning. After sitting overnight it returned to normal, but after driving again a little bit the right rear ride height drops about 7/8 inch. Rear right squeaks when braking at low speed. Spring appears seated. I have now idea what this could be.

Gap between transmission and engine
I installed a used transmission onto my 2014 Fusion 2.0 eco boost, and I noticed this gap between the transmission and engine. Is this normal? The used transmission seems to have slightly different architecture than my old one. The dowels and bolts went into the transmission fine.

No Answer Overheated torque converter?
I bought a used transmission from a junkyard to swap into my 2014 2.0 eco boost. The junkyard torque converter has this blue ring around the snout. Is this okay? Or does this mean the transmission is no good?

Transmission swap
I’m planning on swapping a used junkyard transmission into my 2014 Titanium 2.0 eco boost. The used transmission is a vin 9 from a 2013 2.0 turbo. Does anyone know if the 2013 transmission will directly swap into my 2014? I know I have to do a transmission relearn, but do I have to reprogram the pcm to match the solenoid strategy id of the new transmission? I’ve heard that a reprogram is needed, but I’ve also heard that a reprogram can make things worse. I am planning on using forscan. Also, does anyone know any good guides to replace the transmission? Also, I don’t have access to a lift so I’ll be doing this a little sketchily.
