    Ranger Vehicle Speed Sensor

    Guys, I need the part number of the speed sensor pictured here (the one mounted on the bracket on top of the tone ring) that produces a type of signal similar to that of the ford oem one that does not need conversion (via the ABS/ECU) to be used for a digital speedometer. I got the...

    5.0 Thermostat O-Ring?

    I keep reading about this "o-ring" part when you replace the gasket on your thermostat housing but I can't find it in any parts catalog. There's this small leak that's developing under the thermostat housing, that is common on our trucks, that I went ahead and ordered a new gasket and...

    MSD 8.5mm Wires

    After I accidentally damaged one of the Taylor 8mm Spiro-Pro wires leaving me with a backfiring engine and lousy idle below 2000 rpm, I then decided to give MSD's 8.5mm Super Conductor Wire set a try. These MSD wires are advertised to have less than 50 ohms per foot of wire and after...

    3rd Gen diff cover

    Anybody here have one lying around that they want to get rid of? :) talking about this guy: I prefer aluminum covers that can aid in transferring heat out of the diff fluid and don't need heavy duty cast steel ones. I'm hoping the oem 3rd gens are a lot cheaper than the trickflow's...

    Running with front CV Stub only

    There have been a few threads implying that it is safe to drive around with just the stubs of the CV shafts installed on the wheel hub assembly but none was clear about driving it normally on a daily basis, so.. Given that the following is done, -cv axles disassembled -middle shaft, boots...

    vss drive gear

    is it possible to replace the drive gear on the transfer case shaft to correct the speedo after a 4406 swap? i have the red drive gear (21 tooth) on the vss and the stock brown one on the 4406 and it reads about 4-5 mph over the true speed and that is the closest i can get it to since the red...

    Windows couldn't find/install the drivers for my SCT x3 and I cant find the tune loader software at the SCT website. Shipping this thing to and from the tuner to get a new tune is getting ridiculous. btw, i can't find my envelope that contains the x3 manual and installation disk.. the user...

    Ticking Sound (no, it's not the exhaust.)

    I have this ticking sound that mimics an exhaust leak that increases with engine speed which is also noticeable under load that I cannot figure out the source. Here is what I know: What it is NOT: - Not an exhaust leak (Remflex gaskets on Torque Monster Headers, no leaks on any flanges) - Not...

    Rear Door/Hatch Creak

    Has anybody noticed how much creaking and noise the rear hatch makes whenever you turn up/out of a curb or a small incline or when you take a turn a bit faster than normal? every time I pull in/out of my driveway that darn hatch creaks like crazy. Initially, i though that the whole truck was...

    Rear axle bearing squeak?

    Is it possible for a bad rear axle bearing to squeak when it goes bad? There's this "squeak.. squeak.. squeak.." rotational noise that i'm getting from the rear passenger side wheel area when moving slowly up to 20mph and it mutes down when i press the brakes. It also syncs with the speed i'm...

    Is your 4406 loud?

    Hi guys! So I completed the 4406 swap this past Saturday and everything went smoothly. Test drove her around the block and did a couple of quick burnouts (that alone made the swap worth the while :D) and so far everything feels fine and the drive feels lighter and more solid. Today, I was...

    4406 Gear calculation

    Hi! Does anybody here know if I should change the gear on the vss on my 4406? It has a 19 tooth gear installed on it and I have stock size tires with no plans of up-sizing anytime soon. The gps speed accuracy test will be done tomorrow and i'll bump this up again by then. TIA, -Carl

    4r70w Sticking Governor?

    Hey guys! I'm not sure if the governor in my 4R70W is sticking or not but heres the scenario: The trans would not shift to the next gear sometimes and i would need to either let it rev to around 4500-5000 rpm to shift and let off on the gas. It would do this in all of the gears from 1st to...

    Justifying a 4406 swap

    I've read all the threads i can find related to the swap and can readily find information on the parts and their corresponding part numbers if ever i do get to do this myself. But, i still need to justify if it would be worth my while. In my case, my truck is a 97 V8 AWD and currently is...
