Sport Trac - Ranger - Street Trucks

i'm going to keep my truck i'm also going to be posting a whole heck of alot more again as there are now a million new things i have to learn in order to do everything i want. plans- roadster lay body tonneau cover mounted reverse (so it the front folds up) w. plexi window showing amp rack keep the front suicide, rear pass suicice and tailgate door configuration 400/450 hp/tq major stumbling points- z front or body drop entire truck (rear suspension will be fairly easy- just weld in all new at height desired, front not so much to get it down further as front crossmember is on ground and body isn't!) rollcage type bracing system to replace strength lost by removing roof. probably with hoops behind each front...

Found this registry after I set mine up in the main forum. Just trying to get some more activity going on over here. We all like to see pics!! Especially of non muddy trucks :p:

how do i find what size the rear is. anybody have 4.11's in their--- the mut i'm the new dog on the block

Although there are many posts on valve train timing I have yet to see one that shows a picture of the cam lobe position of #1 and #5 cylinder. It appears to me that the reference to the crankshaft at TDC for #1 and #5 leaves the cam on the right side with the offcenter slot for the cam holding tool 180 degrees out of time....the left side is fine, it just evacuated..the right side shows lobe to be standing straight up, a 1/2 turn from end of compression, and the offcenter slot is opposite the left. Any suggestions??--guess i could include the details of the engine--- 4.0 L sohc (E)..125,000 mi.---replacing , #1 piston, wrist pin, and rod---main and rod bearings. piston rings...and all timing chains and sprockets.

I have a '01 sport and want to get a front bumper gaurd, who's got one and what do you recommend, where to buy? etc etc. Much appreciate any help;)

Okay so I now have a 2002 Sport Trac, 4x4, Alpine white 114K miles Looks good right? WRONG Beat to crap LOL I had helped my buddy purchase this truck about 4 years ago, he lost his job and could no longer afford the payments, so I had to take it back. The truck was wrecked into a guardrail, it is now getting fixed at my mother in laws body shop, $4700 worth of damage! Holy cow! the bad: -$4700 damage from guardrail -the SOHC has a slight rattle at start up and the trans has a 2-3 shift flare -114K abused miles, not in my care! -tensioner is dry/squeek -oil changes were not kept up with -front tires are almost bald, after wreck was driven for months before finally getting alignment -windshield cracked...
