    95 to 97 Torsion Bar Keyways

    All, I was wondering if anyone has been able to find a source for the 95 to 97 keyways? So far after extensive searching online and going to local dealer, I have come up with nothing. Just to refresh wveryone, these are the ones that have the Kevlar patch bonded to the keyway itself. I...

    2016 Ford Nationals Carlisle, PA / EF 20th anniversary get together

    We will be there as well, also hitting up the campground unless something changes. Should be a good time, we should probably look into the requirements for a Serious Explorations tent like they setup last year. Rumor has it, its based on the number of pre-registered rigs for AFN, more then...

    OBDLink MX, PLX KiWi 2 or UltraGuage

    FYI, https://www.automatic.com v2 of the OBD device just came out now supports DashCommand which is really good software, have the older version of it for my PC and a elmscan5. If your just looking for simple diagnostics and monitoring out the ying yang, you can hit up a...

    http://westernvillagervpark.com Its a great place and were actually planning on making a return next year since I have recently put "BigRed" back on the road. They have plenty of space, if you call early enough, ask them for a spot with trailer parking they can accommodate. Some spots...

    Cracked Windshield - Safelite?

    Had safelite install my windshield on my 97 Explorer about 5 years ago now. They installed their "diamond glass" series and has a lifetime warranty to never crack. 3 months after I had it installed a bus threw a chunk of blacktop at the windshield and it hit so hard it bent the wiper and just...

    metal thermostat housing soon available for v6 2005+ engine

    Orney, That one is defiantly better as I have it installed currently. They eliminate the common failure point of the multiple layers of plastic coming un-glued by running a bolt through two of the 3 bolt holes and when tightened it compresses two bolt locations instead of pulling up on the...

    water where water shouldnt be!

    pault63, I am sure thats what it is. Same exact thing happen to me actually right around the time I got the trans rebuilt, freaked out and took it back to them, they discovered it was coolant mixing with puddled ATF fluid from the swap. I looked into it further and lower thermo housing had...

    metal thermostat housing soon available for v6 2005+ engine

    Wow, very interested in the dual sensor screw in type!!! If I have to modify, don't care, my third housing has just started to let go again. Will be watching, eager to throw money at this brilliant idea to actually use a material that isn't plastic.

    can lucas transmission fix fix my flashing od lamp?

    I am surprised none of the big trans guys have chimed in yet but it could be a solenoid going bad. I believe one of them controls when the TC locks up. My only problem with my theory of it might being the TC Solenoid is, I believe the trans will throw a code if it its outside parameters. Link...

    Questions on 4.0 vs 5.0 and tow package

    Tow package was a vehicle specific item, it honestly changed depending on what the setup was. Across the board it gave you a trans cooler and beefier wiring for the turn signals and brake lights. When I mean beefier, it was basically a step up in gauge in the body harness and a 15amp fuse...

    Intake Mod With AirAid Intake

    Cool info, what app and scanner is this? Also, where you moving when you took this screenshot? If so, I would wonder how much she helps during start and stop traffic. Thats really when I see my IAT go through the roof.

    Central PA Day of Wheeling July 13th

    You can just subscribe to my channel as I will be posting all of them up eventually. Also, tagging them Doe Valley so they are searchable. I just threw that one and the Yota up for sh*ts and gigles. I also didn't realize I kept rolling after Todd went up and you were right after, so that...

    towing

    What determines hauling capacity is Engine output, gearing in both transmission and axles. Larger gearing more pulling capacity hence larger payloads can be pulled safer. All this is generally taken into account along with how the vehicle preforms under braking and emergency maneuvers. Not...
