    Sway Bar Problem

    I think you are on to something with the sway bar bushings. Mine were making an awful squeaking sound when going over spead bumps. I had already replaced them with aftermarket bushings but I guess the lube dried out. I took them off and lubed them. All is good now.

    4X4 problem

    I have had the same problem with my 98 sport. I determined that it was a dirty sensor on the top of the diff. I romoved it and wiped it off and re-installed it. This seemed to cure the problem.

    What is causing this occasional clicking/ticking sound ?

    Turn off your AC and then listen for it. Most Ford AC clutches click about every 15 seconds or so. It is really annoying.

    Daytime Running Lights

    You can't just unplug the DRL module if you don't want running lights, your headlights won't work. I wanted to disable my running lights so I had to get a plug which completes the circuit. It is only like $10 from the dealer.

    Front end whirling noise

    I have a noise like that with my '98. I have tried many things to fix it. I am also wondering if it could be a CV. The CV boots look good though.

    saging rearend

    I just went to a shop and told them that I wanted new springs to lift up the rear. They asked me how much and they arced them to what I wanted. I went 34" to the wheel wells all the way around. I had to crank my t-bars about 1" or so. New leafs cost about $250 Cdn.

    Rear Wheel movement in and out?

    ok, that makes me feel better. Then my front end must be causing the truck to "float". I guess it is most likely my hubs since I am having some problems with 4x4 and the front end is making a whirring or chuffing sound.

    Rear Wheel movement in and out?

    I had my truck up on stands last week to rotate my tires and noticed that my rear wheels move in and out about a 1/4" or so. Pushing them in and out caused a clunking sound. I checked to see if there was any movement by pushing and pulling at 6 and 12 o'clock and at 3 and 9 o'clock...

    No Daytime running lights

    I disabled my DRL too because they make my SilverStars look kinda yellow and ugly to me. I also have the clear corners with white signal lights which look better without the DRL. To disable the DRL, all I had to do was remove the module and replace it with a little jumper cap which you can get...

    Blend door vote

    I just called Ford Canada about this problem last week. They gave me the same BS about it not being a recall but if there is one in the future they will refund me. They also said they have never heard of this problem before...ya right. All I can ask of anyone who has or had this problem is to...

    leaning towards driver side.

    It is true about the gas tank...kinda stupid how they put it on the driver's side and not in the center. Anyways, I have upgraded my shocks, replaced the rear springs with heavier duty ones(due to butt sag) and it still leaned on the driver's side. In order to balance it all out, I had the...

    Help! Can't Find Wire Color Code!

    Just go buy the $10 adapter. Much cheaper and all the wires are labelled. I have always bought adapters because it isn't worth the hassle trying to figure it all out.
