    Bronco junkie what size spacer do you have? I was going to run strutteks all around and a truxx spacer up front. Ill have the rear spacer incase I want to use it but the install doesnt seem worth it. My x sits level I cant find any cracks in the springs. Or clearly messed up coils.

    2004 slipping/studdering in reverse.

    Thats a question....is it out? But I also dont want to waste money on fluid if its something bigger. There is an actual clunking noise. It acts almost like a pinion gear with missing teath. After some more searching I have 1st gear so maybe the band is ok.

    Havn't been around in a while. new rims.

    Off Road Lamp install & Questions - PICS - Attn: 57Tbird

    you might be able to use a simple audio switcher behind the headunit. I'm not sure how the aux hooks in back there for the dvd. By audio switcher I mean something like this mounted in the center console. something like this obviously doesn't have to be this...
