Rostra 250-9636 Cruise Control Kit For Full Size Ford Transit

The Hopstop was actually amazing, after I placed the order they reached out to me to verify the type of vehicle it would be installed on making sure it was the right product for my vehicle. This product is working wonderfully on my 2018 Ford Transit 250! The HopStop doesn't just want to sell things they want to sell the correct item for the correct vehicle, great product.

This Cruise control system works wonderfully, no perceptible difference from a stock system that was on my previous vehicle. Not sure what others are talking about with the aggressive downshifting on hills. I think they're having problems that are inherent to cruise control. Use it on a freeway and you'll be totally fine. Use it on slower-speed backroads and you might have a problem; but really, you deserve it. Cruise control doesn't perform well at low speeds and drastic slope changes, and isn't meant to. Worth it. So worth it.

Put in a ford transit. I would probably like it more if it was steering wheel mounted like the factory CC. Maybe that’s too involved. I put it in what seems like the same spot most do but because I have a swivel installed under the seat, it sits maybe 3/4” higher and now I have to pull the seat much closer than I normally would and my knee sometimes bumps the lever and turns off CC. I also wish CC worked while in manual shift mode because that’s how I drive if there are any hills. I have the 3.7 and I hate letting the van handle the downshifts and acceleration while using CC during those circumstances.

Search on YouTube, some great videos and this installation is actually quite simple and quick. But the instructions that came with the product are absolute trash

Love my new cruise control by Rostra. Total install time was 30-45mins with a very helpful phone call to technical support(installer issue) a little confused on the instructions. After 3weeks and 2,000miles found it Kicks into over drive a little fast(Florida hills) but I do have an over loaded van. Would recommend this to any of my friends. Great purchase.

Installation on this was pretty straight forward. Installed this in Feb of this year and finally was able to travel for 2 weeks out west. Driving across the plains wasn't too bad, it stayed at the set speed and didn't fluctuate too much. However, once you get to even the slightest incline, the cruise will shift down 2 to 3 gears. Very hard on the transmission. When getting into the mountains it's even worst. I had to shut it off for most of our trip since we spent most of our time in the mountains or even in the desert where there are little hills to climb. The programming on the computer module I think is really bad. There is no reason that it should shift the transmission down 3 gears and almost max out on rpm's. When not using the cruise I was able to keep the transmission at low rpm's while maintaining the speed I wanted. It is nice having cruise control but this module only really works when it's very flat and a little bit of wind at your back. If your going against the wind, forget about it. Not worth the $300 in my opinion. We used this for our campervan, will never buy another van without factory cruise.

This review is for an incorrect stalk being packaged in this kit. The cruise control stalk is supposed to be mounted on the left side of the steering column, mine came with a stalk that was for the right side. I contacted Rostra Precision Controls and they are supposed to send the correct stalk in the mail. Update: New part was shipped out very quickly. I finished the installation last night and couldn't be happier. Great company to deal with!

Very simple to install... did not like the plug in connectors though,they seemed a bit loose. So I cut out the connectors and replaced them with 3m pinch connectors with silicone in them. Other than that it works fine just didn’t want a loose connection in the future to troubleshoot.

Works just like OEM cruise. Not too bad to install. Take your time
