Well, I will know the fate of my '06 F250 today as they are doing a compression check on the engine, but I've got a bad feeling there is a bad rod or bearing deep in the engine. The damn thing only has 94,000 on it, partially my fault for some of the mishaps, but a lot to blame on Ford, more...

Got to clean out some stuff. 1) pair of rusty old set of 4" lift ttb coil springs. Not sure the brand but I'll take $20 + shipping. 20 lbs shipped weight from 54650. 2) pair of 6" skyjacker TTB coil springs. good shape, red in color, retail for about $165. I'll take $60 + shipping...

Well, besides not being free much because of work, I did manage to take advantage of living 12 blocks from the Mississippi River again. Wife & I picked up a 2005 210 Nautique. One of the best wakeboard boats in it's era, and honestly, all the flash and cash required for the new ones, I...

Thought I'd check in with my people and see if anyone that owes me a favor (I hope there is one or two of you) might be going through Blythe in the next couple days. I found a set of AMP research steps in Blythe that I need picked up and shipped, I'll make it worth your time, the guy won't ship...

Looking at an '08 Altima. Wanting a vehicle that will get some good fuel economy, they show a v6 and a 4 cylinder and I'm thinking about the 4-popper. It's the best mileage (24 city, 31 hwy) on a vehicle that doesn't look way too small, the new Altima isn't much smaller than the Maxima and...

I would own this already if I wasn't moving! It's a twin to my old one. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/cto/1506272698.html

Instead of renting a uhaul trip for an upcoming travel I decided why not spend the same amount of money for a tow bar to put on the front of my fiance's Xterra. I can't really think of a good reason other than owning equipment vs. renting (well, if I wanted to get drunk at the bar I could make...

I haven't seen a solid disc brake upgrade writeup for a Ford 9" axle so I documented what was pretty much a hunt for me to do this rebuild. My rear axle fortunately has 5x4.5 shafts however has a full aftermarket disc brake conversion. I have almost all the part numbers if someone would want...

So I'm heading to the Cardinals game tonight and wanted to catch the hilights from another game while we were tailgating. This got me thinking, I ran a A/V cord out from my Alpine IVA-200 to be used as an aux input to view videos, digital pics or any other input. Local tuners from Alpine...

Got a friend in town who rented a 4 door Jeep JK. Pretty standard equipment, open diffs, 225 Goodyear tires. I pulled the airbag fuse and took it wheeling...with a video cam. Any speculation on how it did?

I can't believe this was published. I'd wrap my towstrap through your window before clamping onto this death trap. http://www.moabjeeper.com/articles/general/listing.cfm?articleID=468

I'm in need of some brackets. Anybody recognize these or know of a good place to find something similar? I don't need those goofy horn things on the top, so I could likely just have a machine shop cut out a couple pieces but maybe they are stock bracket from some oddball vehicle.

My 18' Carson trailer was bought new in 2004 and we've been to hell and back. Probably close to 30,000 miles on this thing. Anyway, I haven't done anything with the bunks or floorboards this entire time. I am looking at it thinking I should seal them and after looking around online I saw...

I need these two parts. I call them a c-clip and a splined washer I hate to say it, but I don't know what they're called, where to get them or a Ford part number. I've gone to a few FORD parts counters to try to buy them and the guy basically has told me that he needs the model number on...

This is becoming a pretty popular topic. I thought it would be time to make some resources available to those who really need to see what it takes. I'm not going to get into why you should go solid axle vs. the TTB nor will I get into the debate of leaf springs vs. coils. Also I will not...

I was next to one of these on my way to the office this morning. It's really something amazing so I figured it was worth sharing on here. I knew right away from the pink paint it was from the Pink Jeep Tours in Sedona but I fell in love with this thing. I would get rid of my super duty any...

This one probably won't be around long, but I got a deal on this and have been cleaning/detailing/repairing a bunch of things and then it will go back up for sale in the peak of season. Glad to have a boat again as it's been since '07 when I sold my Supra before taking a job as a mfg. sales...

Thought I would share this. I saw a slick little Ford Ranger on the cover of "Diesel Builder" magazine. I hear guys all the time ask about swapping an engine but usually nothing comes of it. Here's a Ranger with the goods. I saw the magazine at Autozone with a few more pictures but this is...

I had an awesome weekend, Friday night I took my girl and buddy to the Diamondbacks vs. Dodgers, sat in the cheap seats and saw a good game plus about 8 fights including the guy seated right next to us get tossed and then his buddy got tackled when he threw a beer on the security guards...

Last weekend I decided to break down my Warn M8000 winch that I had on my 94. this thing weighed probably close to 50 lbs, but a lot of that weight and mounting depth was from the 2" receiver slide in mount that I designed my old front bumper around. I rebuilt this winch last year...

While testing my fuel pressure I have ran into an issue that the "search" feature is not helping me find the answer. 1991 Explorer 4.0 *just replaced fuel pressure relay *fuel pump is a little noisy *lacking power at wide open throttle Key on, Engine off---Fuel jumps near 30 then...

In my superduty I have a Alpine IVA-W200 headunit. Pretty straight forward, 4 speakers off headunit, 1 sub wired from "sub" output on the back of the deck. I am having 2 issues, don't know if they are related or not 1) memory for head unit (presets, crossover controls, DVD memory, clock...

...That I scored today. matching 60s front and rear. 4.56 gears from a 2004 F250. :scratch:

What better time than now to do this. Here is my old 94 http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=100935 Just when my transmission crapped out again, I saw my current 91 for sale on this forum. Joe (Lilmule) owned the truck since new and moved to Milwaukee. When I got this...
