Has anyone dropped the oil pan before? How do I get that thing out, I think my pick up may be clogged.

Hey guys, thoughtI would post some more deatails on the intake manifold runner control/ air valve module. I removed mine and saw the reason it does not work. Not only was my 4" curved connector bar dangling from one side due to bad bushings, but I was missing the 2" dogleg piece (red circle in...

Imrc Ivan, That would be awesome! It is the black box in post #282 above. I thought I found one locally really cheap, but it was cracked when they removed the engine. So, yes, let me know if you have one. Thanks, Bogie It is to the top right beside the rubber retaining strap (and...

Intake Runner Control IMRC So sorry for the delayed response. This week was crazy busy. Well this thing is called a bunch of different things including "intake valve", IMTV, ect. My issue was the truck went into limp mode on the highway. I had it towed to the shop where they hooked up...

New Cruise switches, tires, and LED light So the last couple of months have been a bit busy and the ST was neglected. Therefore this week I felt it needed some love. This included: 12' led light bar under the bumper New battery Polish and wash Interior detailed 265/75r16s Cooper Zeon LTZ...

I found a complete 2004 wheel but unfortunately the connections are all different. My ST is an '01.

Adjustable Camber Bolt Alignment Install Finally got the ST in for an alignment today. I was enthusiastically thanked for the alignment bolts. They were pretty straight forward, just wish I had installed them while I was replacing my ball joints.:banghead: 1. Make sure you change one bolt...

Thanks for a Great Site/Forum and Moderators! I just want to thank the Moderators for helping this forum become an excellent place to share knowledge. I have learned, repaired and saved so much money from this site! A couple of my posts were denied on other sites when I posted links to...

Air shut off assy/ IMRC linkage bushings and vacuum hose Thanks. I am going to look for a vacuum hose and I will try to move the valves manually as I think I felt the loose linkage anyway. Mna it's hard to get back there with man hands. :hammer:I bought some bushings and will try them also...

An awesome menber on Lincolnforums.com named Slick Fan posted some very helpful info and these two pics.. "I haven't had to deal with this part yet with my Aviator, but doing an internet search, I believe this is what you need...part # 2C5Z9J559AA. Looking at mine, it looks like it's on the...

Imrc The PO said his mechanic told him he needed a new intake manifold runner control actuator. I should pick it up this weekend. I will pull the codes and inspect the vac lines and connecting rods if I can find them. Any idea if they are easily visible. I have no experience with the 4.6L.

Intake Manifold Runner Control Hey guys. I love this site! It has helped so much with my Bronco ans Sportrac. I bought a 2003 4.6L 4V V8 AWD Aviator Yesterday but they said the IMRC was bad. Can anyone show me what it looks like or a part number? Or what other models are compatible? I have...

Painted Plastic Cladding Holy Jeez! Most dramatic looking mod ever. Why did they ever come in grey? So I was limited on time this week and only had one day to get this done before the rain and wife cut it short. Those of you who have painted interiors and other plastic parts in the past...

TT lift with longer bolts After inspecting my TT bolts for room to adjust, I realized I did not have enogh left in order to lift the truck ~2". So I went to Fastenal and ordered some longer grade 8 bolts. I ordered 2 8.8M12- 1.75x100 Total cost was $7 After installing them, I had about...

That's how I remove and install the lowers. I couldn't figure out AutoZone's BJ press either. My BFH worked fine and didn't damage anything. Great minds think alike!:chug:

Ball Joints Done- Kind of... forgot lift alignment washers So I ordered Both Sides- Upper and Lower Kit from A-1 Auto. Total $119! It took quite a while to get the lower out due to the fact the ball joint press I rented from Autozone only has so many sizes. But the real time was getting the...

Dang! Wish I new this before I changed my ball joints.:banghead:

Thanks! Great minds think alike, 265/75/r16 on the way.

Center Console Recover and 4wd Module So I ordered on the bay repair kit for $20 or so as recommended on here. I also bought some 1/2" foam from JoAnns fabric store to replace my damaged foam. Removed the console cover with 2 screws on the hinge. Flipped it over and took out the 8 or so...

I just looked at the '04-06 Ranger wheel. I like it!

I really like the two tone Escape Limited steering wheel. Do you think it would fit? Also what is the measurement from the center of you axle to the bottom of the fender? I think the PO adjusted the TT bolts and I don't want to overdue it.

Good call on the body bushings and tranny fluid!

TT lift height Thank you! So after TT, I should have around 36.5" on 255/70r16. If anyone else has different measurements, please let me know.:D

Hey Guys and Girls, I bought a black '01 Sport Track with Grey leather that is in need of some TLC and attitude. It has a few repairs that need immediate attention and then just some cosmetic repairs. Then... something to make it look a bit tougher. Here is the list so far (will inevitably...

Hey guys, I think the TT bolts were adjusted a little before I bought this truck. Can anyone tell me the safe 2" lifted height from the center of the rim to the fender? It has 255/70r16 on it now and I want a 2" lift in order to run 32" tires, but I do not trust the PO. It had bad ball...
