    Power steering hose bracket location

    I usually put as many bolts as I can back to where they came out of, thats why I was lost, I only remembered taking the one out on the far passenger side where it turns and comes back to the drivers side. I know the PO has a lot of missing bolts, hoses that arent secured with the clips etc to so...

    Power steering hose bracket location

    Awesome, thank you! GIves me something to look for. Im thinking this was already disconnected because I dont remember one of those except the one thats mounted and goes up into the pump. I ziptied it today until I could figure it out, or decided to say eff it, which is really what I did lol

    Leaking PS line at rack. Replacing Everything

    So I put my battery in today after 4 or so months of the truck sitting while I replaced every suspension and brake part all the way around. I felt like I was almost to the finish line, battery was put in in preparation of bleeding the brakes. Got some fluid to all 4 corners, awesome. Didnt see...

    Priming and bleeding new brake system

    I know how to flush the system and bleed brakes. Ive never filled an empty system though, as in, theres no old fluid to flush out. Hoping to gravity feed to everything

    Priming and bleeding new brake system

    Whats the proper procedure to priming and bleeding new lines and calipers? System was run dry except the residual fluid, and using the old MC and HCU/ABS module. I know Ill probably have to have that bled to, but Ill go have that done once its primed and at least has fluid in it, thanks

    HCU / ABS lines

    I have an 05 Eddie Bauer. Replacing all brake lines from HCU back. I already threw out the lines from the hcu to the bracket like a dummy because I ordered a full set of preformed lines that I thought would include all 4 of those lines, not knowing that most explorers have 3. Well now I need the...

Ive got the front bolt out, and the shock bolt, that rear one seems to be seized and Ill be cutting it out. The only part number I can find is W707363-S436 but I cant seem to find a way to verify that...

    Upper control arm shim broken

    Oh yeah, I miss when I could walk in and just look around. Retards in the yards here are just "pull it off" jockeys.

    Truck ran fine, then I changed the rear brakes, rear abs sensor, fuel filter, and new plugs and wires, first trip out and its overheating fast. WTF could have happened now. No leaks or anything I can see. Once its shut off of course I can hear all the gurgling... Any ideas? Forgot to mention...
