    347 in 1997 Mountiaineer, what do I need to know?

    Being from Komifornia also, we do not have many options due to CARB reading the tune and reflash count on the computer (Stated by a Smog tester), and the requirement of OEM cats or stock sized CARB legal replacements.

    00 mounty 5.0 front diff problems new member!

    Did you get both half shafts locked properly into the mating splines of the center section, including the stub on the passenger side? If you had the awd driving the front axle with one side not locked in then maybe the open diff gears were over heating with one side free wheeling. Or the used...

    Let's talk radiators...

    What have you done to replace the stock radiator with a better aftermarket one? My stocker is leaking and I'm going to be putting on a 2" body lift, so there is no time like the present to replace the stocker, shroud, and maybe go to electric fans.

    Anyone know if you can use a F150 signal stalk?

    Does anyone know if you can use an F150 or other ford signal stalk on a 98 mounty instead of the stock one. I hate the bend down it is too low,a nd would like one that bends up or neutral.

    What shocks to buy? Street driven only

    My KYB gas adjusts don't have enough valving for me, especially the front. The compression and rebound is to light causing them to take more than one up and down motion to settle. This sensation has gotten worse with some TT and AAL.

    Dixon kit opinions

    "Custom Length Heat Treated 4340 Axle Shaft with serviceable 930 inner CV joints" Sounds like you will break the Dana35 center section first. Keep in mind that the Dixon kit is 9inches wider than stock, and look strange without a wider rear axle (F150 8.8 or custom). Then you need appropriate...

    Need help from the Aftermarket 5.0 guys

    I'm curious also. Do I remember correctly that stock 5.0 mustang covers will work?

    Front auto lockers?

    Are you talking a diff locker, axle lockers at the hubs, or the vacuum setup?

    AAL with shackles/superlift springs?

    Make sure when doing the TT that you still have down droop. If you max out and don't have any down droop your tires won't follow the road and will negatively affect handling. I wouldn't go less than 2" of down droop. To check down droop, measure your height at rest (fender lip is a good...

    AAL with shackles/superlift springs?

    The AAL that was recommended on here to me only gave me 1", and it hasn't settled yet. 1.5-2" using what AAL? ...and his springs should already have more arch.

    AAL sources???

    I'm disappointed, those AAL's only gave me 1" and they will probably settle in lower. A heavier AAL is definitely needed if you are to get 1.5". I'll see how these perform before I buy heavier ones though.

    AAL sources???

    Great, thanks guys.

    Saggy Mounty when trailer hooked up.

    So what is everyone running to add some additional carrying capacity to their Ex/Mounty's? I have an enclosed trailer that barely makes my F150 sag, but makes my mounty squat like crazy. I wouldn't mind going with an AAL to get the rear raised up a bit under no load, since I want to get some...

    AAL sources???

    Where is everyone getting their Add a Leaf's from and what is the part number?

    Torque Monster header availability teaser...

    Yes, Erica at Al's Headers has been very responsive. Email is quickest: Erica @ Al's Headers e-mail: alsheaders@att.net ph:714-630-1833 fx:714-630-6531 Mine won't ship till Tuesday or Wednesday, since they needed to make me a longer EGR tube for my manifold spacer. I should still see...

    24lb injectors

    I didn't say he should use 19lbs injectors, just that if they are the same that any larger injectors for the mustangs should fit and function. ;)

    24lb injectors

    I don't know why you wouldn't use the same ones as the 5.0 mustangs. Do a parts search to be sure though. Search for the 5.0 mustangs and compare the part numbers for the ones that come up for the X (both will be 19lbs.). If the #'s are the same, then the mounting and connectors are the same and...
