    5 sp Rebuild

    I think I am gonna tear apart the 5 Spd. I just took out of mine this weekend. I never took it back to get my core money back so if I can dig into it and replace the broken parts somewhat cheaply then I will have that "back-up" tranny!:D But I think I may have busted a lot of stuff up in mine...

    rear u-joint twisted in mid dounut celebration

    A cheap 3/4" Socket works great for fitting over the U-Joint Bearing cap to beat on... Just prop up the Driveshaft over the opposite side Bearing cap and grab the BFH and whack away at that. Just a tip, remove the Snap Rings before beating out the Bearing caps. Also remember to pack the new...

    5 Spd. Tranny, ATF or Gear Lube??

    Well I researched it a bit more and I have come to the conclusion that it is in fact a Mazda 5 Spd. After dropping the old tranny out this morning and comparing the two (Both had the F17A Code) they were both Identical. I drained the Gear Lube, Flushed it with Tranny Flush, and put in ATF. I...

    5 Spd. Tranny, ATF or Gear Lube??

    Well my 5 Spd. tranny went out on my '92 X and I got a replacement from a used parts place (read: Auto Salvage) the replacement came out of a '91 Navajo. Anyways.. I got it home and I went to check the fluid level and it smells like there is Gear Lube in it instead of ATF. Now I was under the...

    V8 in a 92?

    I seen a book while at my local 4x4 shop that dealt with the V8 Conversion in earlier Rangers and Explorers. I don't know what all this book entailed, or how detailed it was as I did not look at it. But if you are willing to make a long distance phone call I am sure that the guy running the...

    Finally, Pix of my "X"

    RTStork: It is a 6" Lift by superlift with 33's on it, but the one drop bracket on the front was replaced this past summer due to it being weak. It was under a recall which is good, it was just a bummer that we had to replace it. But while we were at it we replaced the Superlift Shocks with...

    differential skid plates??

    Beaston1, thanks for the pic, I am thinking that could come in handy with some of the things I have in mind for my setup! So I have added that to my wish list for Santa! (Even if it will be be-lated) I checked out the BajaConcepts site but I couldn't get hardly any of their "button" links to...

    Wish I had LS

    I have to agree I have a Limited Slip Differential with 4.56's and in the wet or on Ice it can be a bit of a ride if I "get into the TB with my foot". I can step the rear out quicker than anything and that can be a bit hairy in four lane City driving! Weeeeeeeeee...............Thump!:confused:

    Carnival Ride

    Well I hope I do not sound like I am preaching or anything in my very first post on here, but you can add weight to the back of your X and have it help out some. BUT there will always be a situation where all the weight in the world will not help. My best advise is if the weather is lousy...
