A few weeks ago, I went wheeling and somehow broke a tranny cooler line. I absolutely hate bending inverted flair tubing, the one peice is really long (8') and above all reasons, I do my best never to replace, always upgrade. Parts needed. -6AN to 5/8"-18 Fittings (4 total), I used...

OK, so here is my dilema. I use my truck to play with, but it's also my ride to work when the weather is bad. I think an SAS would make my wheeling expereinces better but I'm still concerned about keeping the functionality for the rest of the week. Problem #1 driveability) It seems like...

I went wheeling Saturday and sustained some suspension damage among other things. When the steering wheel is straight, the passenger side wheel is kicked out to the right and the wheel is completely off camber. (top is leaning out.) I took the wheel off to inspect everything but nothing looks...

I've been poking around for a year now looking for light gray visors with homelink and voice recorder built in. I finally got tired of looking and just got a dark gray set. When I began installing them, I realized the wiring of my vanity mirror visors was a bit different than that of what...

Who has them, what kinds do you have and what do you think of them? I was leaning towards the Innovate LC1 myself but I've read quite a few threads on other forums about them not being any good including Innovate's forum.

I've been thinking about swapping my 96 airbag out with a newer one from an 02+ Sport/SportTrac. I've seen black ones, there is even one on ebay right now. The look nicer and have the Ford emblem embossed/plastic instead of molded into the face. Will an 02+ work? Will it line up with the...

OK, so the wife starts dropping hints like she would rather have an SUV instead of her Lincoln. I started looking at 08 Sport-Trac's and :eek: on the sticker but I really do like how they look. How do you guys that have the new 3valve v8 like them? How's the power? Is it geared well? Any...

So I've been racking my brain on how I could mount a ScanGaugeII in my truck and it not stick out like a terd in a punch bowl. First I thought a message center housing would be good but I like having the **** box where it goes for stuff and the extra buttons on the housing would be kind of...

I have the dreaded door lock issue with my explorer. I cut the zip tie to the plastic door jam barrel, pull the rubber boot back and what do I see? Two wires loose from the barrel staring back at me... Does anyone have the schematics to tell me what pinholes they are supposed to be in...

So I bought this B&M Temp gauge from Ebay, $20 shipped. The only problem is it is just the gauge, no instructions, no wires, no sender, no nothing as far as the operation of the gauge. I went to summitracings' website and got the instructions. Here is my q: Since the OBD2 has trans...

I have done tons of mods to my 5.0. Ecam, 1.6rr, TM headers, Custom intake, 30# injectors, 90mm MAF, custom cat back, yada, yada, yada. I have a popping noise coming from my passenger side header, possibly cylinder #3 and or 4. I think my problem may be in my tune. I have Sniper tuning...

Welp, I have been looking for gray homelink visors for about six months. I'm getting impatient and starting to think of alternatives. Idea one. get the homelink button set and stick it in my visor. It seems like it might be a PITA. Maybe I'll pick up a spare stock visor and mutilate it...

Has anyone tried this or thought of it? I was kicking around the other day putting the radiator back in my truck after the engine swap and thought that maybe one could fit in the other side of the grill opposite of where the one comes from the factory. I hava an extra and I'm tempted to...

Does anyone know? The 96 upper intake has one vacum line coming fromt he front and it goes into a split connector, one to the side goes to the passenger side to the vacum storage container and I'm not sure where the other side goes but it is to the drivers side fender area. The 98 upper...

I'm doing away with the EGR and the big clunk elbow during my motor swap. I'm also adding a 75mm throttle body and I have ported the upper intake to match. This put me in the dilema of how to make the trottle cable and cruise control linkage work properly. I also needed a place to mount...

Have one swing at the idiotic Ford engineer that designed the motor mounts in the 5.0 Explorer? Just one? Please? I took the 150k old ones out last night to replace them. After 2.5 hours, dropping the front diff enough to reach the drivers side, I thought I was in the clear. However, the...

What a pain in the arse! I feel so empty inside. Wanna buy a tranny? Out with the old and in with the rebuilt What is the best method of sliding the new one in?

Getting started.... Had to measure the installed height of the stock valve springs. For the record, 1.840 Stock retainers and push rods are out. Stock timing chain is off Stock lifters out Stock Cam coming out No this is not a pic from the latest hustler...

OK, I'm in the final planning stages before I put this bad-arse 302 together. I'm got allmost all my stuff. Gaskets and valve springs are a stop at Jegs on teh way home from being mine. That leaves one final peice to the puzzle. The hardware. I just ordered stainless steel allen head...

I've been around the forum and haven't seen it anywhere. Does anybody know where I can find all of the torque specifications for the explorer 5.0? I need... Lower intake bolts Upper intake bolts Elbow to upper intake bolts Throttle body to elbow bolts Coolant elbow to lower intake bolts...

I got my powdercoated parts back from jtsmith today. I decided to mock the parts up so I can make sure they fit, see what needs trimmed/ported more. I'm liking how it looks...

So I was showing off my new Torque Monster headers to a friend and he asked me if I was going to wrap them? I dunno? I like the way they look. I know wrapping your headers helps insulate them from letting the heat out into the engine compartment and supposed to give you more HP. Should I...
