Great. Put in new radiator, did full flush over this week like normal and new tstat yesterday. No leaks, let engine run today for about 40 min at idle (let gasket sealant for tstat housing cure) no leaks from anywhere whole time. Ok cool, run over to Lowes, get home. Walk out front, notice a...

Yay me, cracked again. After hours and hours of getting it out and back in, what a ***** again trying to get clips aligned putting new one in. Now I can't get bottom trans line in. Wtf. I Think there's a rubber gasket not an Orting stuck in it, the top one didn't have anything. Blocks the...

Heard hissing sound and found that vacuum line busted. I can see where it goes at the top, but from bottom part not sure what it attaches too as hard to see. What line is this, or name, so I can replace it.

I know this is the wrong spot to put this but the Audio section looks completely dead or questions going weeks or months without answers. Fig might get more traction here, plus searching that board turned up nothing for what I was looking for. Have the Premium sound with sub, just no cd...

Ahhh the notorious caliper bolts coming loose. So for a few days had weird popping sounds when braking and then almost a jamming feeling when in reverse. Passenger side brake top bracket bolt came out and bottom bolt was loose, bought new bolts and torqued to 80ft lbs. Caliper scrapped up inside...

So the truck is making a kinda loose/popping type sound on certain small bumps or rough sections of road especially at slow speeds. I did the truck except for the front which I had a shop I know do. Their closed on the weekends, so went to another shop just to see what they would say, they can't...

Didn't know where to post this lol. All Mevotec parts in the front ('cept the Energy end links and bushings), Rancho RS5374 shocks in front which are extended length for lifts/TT applications, Monroe Coil Overs in rear and Warrior Shackles, ProComp Alloys (way lighter vs steelies) and 31"...

Sorry, other suspension forum seems dead, ton of views and no replies, figure try here. These are M12x1.75 100mm which is repeated on here for a TT lift. However I'm not sure if the bolt should be fully threaded, or look like this with just the tip thread? B/c it has to be rounded off also at...

M12x1.75 100mm Lifted the truck and did a TT in front but the factory bolts aren't enough to make it level with the rear. Found a Fastenal place by me. Also if using new bolts, do you use thread locker or anything for the new torsion bolts? edit - also if replacing the bolts whats best to...

This is way harder than I though and wish I paid a shop now, ughh. I must be doing something wrong as no idea how peeps can do full front suspension for both sides in like 3 hours, taken me almost the whole day to do passenger side and I'm still stuck getting the LCA off. Manual is no help, and...

Made a video as none of the other wheels made this sound. All new bearings etc, not them and their seated right b/c with the pads out no sound, even in the video put the pads in the bracket without the caliper on and you can hear that rubbing sound. Have no clue whats wrong, all new caliper pins...

Nothing in the Haynes manual (only front for 2wd), and searching on here can't find anything except an old thread asking the same thing with no responses? So anything particular about how to replace the rear wheel bearings? And are there any parts I should know of, like are there rear cotter...

So finally figured out where my brake leak was, though it was the master cylinder or other line. Nope was the right rear caliper and didn't know b/c if driving it was dry by the time I checked underneath. Did a short drive and tire was wet, had neighbor press the brake and saw fluid...

So working on the suspension today and going to do TT etc and hopefully get my new wheels and 31s on. I was just reading a thread on here where it sad you needed the adjustment kits which I wasn't aware of. Advance has the Moog one, do I need 1 of these or 2? As it looks like that kit is for...

Pro Comp black 7069, love how light weight there are at 16lbs, steelies are like 30lbs which is heavy as hell for 15". Tires are Nankang FT7 31x10.50r15, don't seem to be popular stateside but lots of favorable stuff overseas. People even preferring them over BFGs. And their light as well...

I keep seeing 34mm in post here for awd/4x4 models, and some say there are different sizes depending on year and model, some post say their the same. That makes no sense, has to be one or the other lol. It's a 2000 V8 rwd, away right now so can't check and have parts being delivered to the...

There's a sale almost over and want to see if my local place can beat it for both, but leaving for a trip so need an answer fast to call them back and order. 2wd 5.0, so going to be doing TT/Shackles and Monroe load adjusting shocks in rear and Rancho RS5374 in front which are a different...

On a 2wd 5.0 should be (from rock auto): (2) timken set2 front outter (2) timen set5 front inner (2) timken 6408 rear wheel correct? Only b/c elsewhere when I was searching some were saying inner and outter for rear bearings which confused me so want to be sure.

Forgot a before, this is after, was basically all rust where the packs mount. After cleaning the packs, used some electrical grease and bolted back up. Super smooth, no more rough idle or stuttering, or hesitation on acceleration or bucking. I'm replacing the wires (already have...

Changing plugs and wires and now notice how tough the #4 plug wire is. Is there any way to reroute it? B/c the factory routing is dumb and I cannot get it out, I can't get those electrical clips out even with a long flat head as leverage, there's one like under the intake area and I think one...

This is the CPS correct? Wanted to be sure as manual wasn't much help and just said located in front of the engine on the V8. So do you just take the two bolts out, and it pulls right off? Some said they put oil in there instead of replacing and worked fine for years after that. only have a...

So I just did the 5.0, correct way through the PCV line not the brake booster lol. No smoke. I've done it on so many vehicles, and not once have I ever got even a hint of smoke, from a 2.0 Ecoboost Fusion to a Viper nada, not even the 14' Explorer Sport just got rid of had any smoke. So why do...

Bought a new Alternator to put in. I cannot get the factory one out. The 3 bolts are off and electrical connections are off, yet it's like frozen or stuck to whatever. Tried pulling, tried a smaller bar with leverage and cannot get it to budge, wtf? I've never seen nor had that problem with an...

So quick search showed how tough this job is for a lot of people, some taking hours to figure it out. I just changed mine on this truck (5.0) for the 1st time in 150k miles. Took me maybe 5-10 minutes if that? All I did was jack the left front slightly, use the removal tool (aluminum dual sided...

Ok so on the 5.0 Stangs, they have the pcv and grommet like us (obviously). However they also have a crank case filter/screen inside also that can be pulled out. On Stangs, this can actually get clogged up and has to be cleaned or replaced or you can develop oil leaks through gaskets etc...
