that wire goes to the harness that was on the shift motor , do you have the 4406e shift motor?

I've always just cleaned them , the posts and terminals, with a wire brush and coated them with brown grease , cosmoline gun grease , never have any problems after , i also look very close at the battery cables , they tend to corrode inside if you are are having alot of terminal /post corrosion...

it would be nice if you could find a somewhat stock looking wheel to keep the sleeper look going, or have a stock set widened

time for 4 drag radials on some light wheels

Nice work!

I'll check around here , im still looking for an 01 setup for my sport trac

keep your gem from the v6 setup its plug and play , i had an e- shift 4406 in my v8 sport for a while , its a very tight fit but it will fit

Cause 351 efi intakes aint cheep , ive been looking for one myself

Can't wait to see more

Bump

hey , do you get plugged in when you go through inspection? im gathering parts for the 01sport trac and here anything 98 up gets plugged in at inspection ( we have 2 year inspection at the DMV ) just wondering if they can tell what year i have under the hood , if it doesn't matter ill strip my...

Yes one more tool , plumbers torch , watch your cardboard when using said torch , i too have been a cardboard fan for most of my life , i sometimes use it even if im using a lift just to make cleanup easier

Yes my 96 was like this , i sold it to a friend who has passed it around between his kids so i do see it around from time to time , ill try to see what the build date on it is

Mine all had what looked like the obd2 port but its missing pins that are under the hood in an obd1 port , kinda a ******* half and half setup , not saying a 96 cant be all the way obd2 fords bad about in between models

I'm not saying obd has anything to do with the fuel , just that he's got more wiring issues than the standard V8 swap , ive had and worked on several 96 V6s and they were all obd 1

Like i said , your gonna have other issues if the orange one is a 96 , obd 1 , vacuum disco front diff will be in the way of a V8 oil pan , not huge problems since you already have a functional setup to rob parts from

Swap your drivetrain over as is and reuse your pump assembly and ignore the extra line or remove it , id just swap tanks , now if it is a 96 you may have to swap all the wiring to get along with your obd

Unplug the heat/ac blower motor and run two jumper wires to it to make sure it works , ive seen a few either siezed up or jammed with rodent nests blow the fuse

just an update , Vaders ( my V8 sport ) origanal 300,000+ mile 21 year old window motors started acting stupid about a month ago , so today i finally got around to fixing them , had to drill the 1/2 inch holes ford forgot on the little divits , three bolts and out came the motors , typical...

awesome! cant wait to see it after its next step

You're right , i googled e force for sbf , it shows one on summit that sure looks like sbf by the pic but it says sbc , either way Tims setup is similar to an e force and something they should have done

edelbrock E-force for explorers, they do have a small block version but with their blower with the dual 4 or twin tb on top it looks too tall , not to mention over 4 grand u.s. , awesome work cant wait to see it done

Mine have held up and performed very well , i dont rock crawl or anything that abusive but i have used them in muddy fields and snow , also i have pulled some pretty crazy weight in 4wd with the 4406 in low range and the 5.0 screaming lol, i do keep them under the stock center hubcaps , keeps...

Yes ive done it several times , AVM hubs , 98/00 unitberrings , halfshafts, seals , circlips, i would not do this with cheap parts , and id not do it without first foing a manual t-case swap

Yes direct swap, ive done this in my 97 sport and a few four doors , usually had to cut the old bolts with a grinder and cutting wheel , i also like to use an impact gun and kroil or pb blaster on the new one to try and save all the tabs and hardware, this is how my last one ended up
