    Don't Drink n Drive

    holy cow! well at least your ok, thats the important thing......Is what people say. IMHO losing alot of money can be worse then getting physically hurt. I got a DUI over winter break and it cost me about $4,000....so far. I didnt crash but the fines, lawyer fees, court fees really cost ya...

    '95-'97 or '98-'01

    i think the 98-01's look alot cleaner and smoother with the better rounded rear hatch, taillights, bumper and fogs. On mine you cant really tell tho cause i lost the from air dam and stock fogs long ago, plus with all the mods... so i have to say the '97 are best :D . and oh yeah all the...

    oh those bumper brakcets

    Oh didnt realize it was a 2" lift. So yes you would lower the distance between the holes to 2" and no i doubt the 3" bracket would work unless you pop 2 new holes in it. Fo the rear brackets, according to those pictures, you would move the two holes on the right, to the left 1". OR the...

    oh those bumper brakcets

    Theres a good chance it really wasnt strong enough. Those brackets from PA that are made from the brass or whatever are pretty crappy actually. If you overtighten them the whole thing warps, plus the studs almost get pulled off the bracket. New ones made of that steel or whatever should...

    oh those bumper brakcets

    find out whats causing the bottom of the bumper to stick out and cut it off with a sawzall. Its probably the bottom inside lip of the bumper hitting the lower part of the end of the framerail. Also try putting washers only on the top parts of the bracket (where the bracket meets bumper, not...

    AWD question

    that sort of thing happens without lockers. with open diffys, both wheels on the axel always have the same amount of torque. a wheel with no traction (the wheel spinning) equals zero torque. So the other wheel wont have any torque either, and if it does have traction then it wont even...

    Is yoour gas gauge off also?

    Mines not accurate either. it can change about a 1/4 tank in a couple minutes one way or the other. I think its mainly due to going up and down hills; When tilted nose down it will read less gas and when leaning upward it will show more.

    Why did Ford do this???

    Or you can take the dash cover off and move the odometer back a few thou by hand.... Or you can drive around in reverse;)

    Death Wobble

    or mud stuck inside your rims can throw off the balance too also try not to drive around too much with your camber off. 2 of my old 31's are basically ruined cause one side of the tread is almost bald and the other looks new, because i drove around too long with the alignment off.

    Prefer Auto. or Manual Transmission?

    i missed the post where someone got offended by what you said Kenny. It looked to me like people were just posting their opinions and giving suggestions based on what you said..... and then you bugged out for no reason and got all defensive. My opinion is you take this stuff way too...

    Before and After 2in bl pics

    nice job. looks good:cool: i didnt think u needed a steering extension with only a 2". You probably could have just left it connected the way it was. But if that was the case you might as well have gone with the 3". but o well. Still looks nice:D What kind of tires do you plan on...
