    I do not. Looks good. And the operation of the pedal is good. Also a relatively new slave splinder too.

    Clutch problems/Will not shift into Gear on a 2003 ST 4x4

    I realize this thread is old and if the mods want to move it I'm cool with that. I've had the same challenge with my 02: did you ever get any answer to this? what did you do to get it fixed? I've looked for a tutorial on replacing the master cylinder, I'm know people on here have done it, I...

    Zerks? What Zerks!

    Thanks guys, I didn't think there were any and I know I didn't install any. Because there aren't any problems now... I'm not going to mess with anything other than the normal stuff. i.e. oil/filter change. I did a proper tune up earlier this year except for the coolant flush....

    Zerks? What Zerks!

    I've been under my 02 4x4 trac many times and have never seen a single Grease Zerk. A friend of mine is convinced I have them... help please. Are there likely to be any? If so where? It's gong to be driving from Phoenix to Chicago soon and I don't want anything to go wrong for the wife...

    Rear doors can't open from inside

    Neither one of my rear doors have opened from the inside in years. I didn't ever get into the back seat so I didn't worry about it much. I checked the Child locks both ways and they are def off. Never been inside a door before though...

    Ball joints and Control arm questions

    If the guy that did your wheel bearing is so bad then why would you give his opinion on your ball joints any thought? The first thing I would do is go to a reputable shop/mechanic and ask them/him to look at it instead of the guy not trustworthy. If you have a bad feeling then listen to it...

    General Grabber AT2

    I used your link to check them out. I like what I see so far, I would also like to know if anyone has used them. I'm looking for new tires, right now i'm considering GOODYEAR - Wrangler RT/S, not a bad price. I can't see though is mounting included? or is that extra?

    Trans oil change

    Good idea! Already checked it so I knew I would be able to fill it. then tightened up the drain plug.

    Trans oil change

    Thanks ClusterPup, I probably would have made the same mistake there. I also finally found the fill hole for the differential, that will be getting fresh oil this weekend. I found the drain/fill plugs on the T-case this morning. Easy enough to get to, I'll be doing that this weekend...

    squealing right front while driving

    First thing to do is, stop driving it. I'm sure you already know that. Sounds like bearings to me as well, do you know a decent mechanic? Are you/your husband going to do the work or have it done?

    Trans oil change

    On an automatic trans one would use the dip stick tube to fill right? What about a manual trans? I've needed to do this for a long time, and just have no idea where to fill it from...

    Manual Transmission Sport Trac Questions

    That's it! The Slave sylinder has been the only real problem I've had. Been a PITA for several years now. Need to really get started on getting that fixed. But I'm fairly sure I need to pull the entire trans to do that....

    Manual Transmission Sport Trac Questions

    I like it, I'm the original owner and now have 137K on her. I bought her in Chicago and she's made several trips to Phoenix and back. And she's made a move to Phoenix where we live now. Around here there are all kinds of trails to hit so as I go through some maintenance I will make sure I am...

    Manual Transmission Sport Trac Questions

    First of all welcome. I have an 02 4x4 ST, 5 speed manual trans and I do have cruise control. I don't have electric seats, but I don't see why that couldn't be added pretty easy.

    Replace spark Plugs/ Tune Up

    I've seen several threads about "what spark plugs do I use?"... and I like the fact that you have listed what you used, ie - Autolite plugs, NGK wires and an Accel coil pack. I too have done a lot of reading on the subject as to who makes quality stuff and what will work with my ST. First a...
