    bad fuel pump, or... something else?

    I also had a problem with my Trac not starting quickly or just stalling while at a light or while driving. Just would stop like I turned off the key, I would coast to the side of the road and it would start right back up. My problem was a relay under the hood for the pump, there are 2 of them...

    TDS 2012 March 2-4

    I registered in early jan and am #720. Gonna be a bunch of folks there. I heard they are giving away 10 sets of BFGs, so that means I won't need to buy tires for the event.

    I have a 02 4x4 with 3.73 rear that I tow a 1800# tent trailer that I am sure we have at least 500# of stuff in it plus the bed is either filled with a yamaha warrior quad or other stuff. I have an extra trans 5000# trans cooler in line with the factory cooler and use a tekonsha brake...

    Battery choices

    I look at some searches of the subject of Battery choice and the posts seem to be older posts. I am wondering what is the opinons now? What battery holds up best and where to get it? I do take it off road so it bounces around a bit, yes it has a hold down, I do run lights, a winch and an air...

    ready to upgrade my tires to 32's, any suggestions ?

    I swear by BFG A/Ts. They are bit hard but good traction and they seem to last a while, longer then my goodyear a/t with silent armor. I do beat up my tires a few times a year with offroading and towing. I figure why buy a cheap set twice when you can get a good set once. And I belive BFG has a...

    any ST owners out there running 32"s with a 2" lift have a pictures?

    No problem Lono. The rear just looks low due to the front being on a hill. I left the rear stock and just did the TT till the front was level. If you have any other questions I will try to answer as best as I can.

    any ST owners out there running 32"s with a 2" lift have a pictures?

    this is my 2002 with 32x12.50x15 BFG A/T, tt to level out the front, stock in the rear. And yes I know about the cladding, just got tired of putting it back on after it gets knocked off in the rocks. I didn't have to trim too much in the front, but I did have to trim some bumps on the back of...

    Need help removing plastic trim (cladding)

    I was gonna suggest letting my wife drive it. She seemed to remove mine pretty fast. I also would like to know about the bolt thing as those christmas tree things are very precious to ford and not afraid to let you know when buying them.:)

    need opinions on PROCOMP ES1000 shocks

    forgot to mention I have the es3000s on my trac now and like them. Firmed up the ride compared to the stock one that were on there. I also have 32x12.50 BFG A/Ts so the tires have a stiff sidewall and that also makes the ride more 'truck like'. I even do some light towing with it and have no...

    fiberglass panel fix question

    try a surf shop for small repair supplies. They will have a fiberglass ding repair kit for boards, and being a surf shop it will be a complete kit and might be cheaper then an auto parts place.

    need opinions on PROCOMP ES1000 shocks

    I did not like them. I have a friend that works for 4 wheel parts and was told their es 3000 are just a renamed rancho 5000, made at the same place and have the same part number. So with the rancho you just pay extra for the sticker.Hope this helps.

    rear bumper cover?

    I bent my exhaust this weekend and now the tip touched the bumper, which resulted in the melting of the plastic around the exhaust tip. My question is, is that just a cover or do I need to replace the whole thing after fixing the exhaust?

    Hella 500 vs. 500ff

    I really like the pro-comp 130 they are a great light, not a pencil and not a flood. They are a bit big but do work very well.
