- 1997 Mercury Mountaineer
Doing a bunch of work recently to my 1997 Merc Mountaineer family wagon. Its retired as a family hauler and I use it as my utility vehicle. Was going to sell it but I'm having so much fun fixing it up, maybe I'll just keep it.
So far I've:
-Replaced Radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, serpentine belt.
In progress:
-Got replacement seat from a donor car to fix my broken lower seat back and air/lumbar as well as the recline adjustment as my old seat back recline handle was broken off.
-Replace mangled speed control pods
-Replace dash lights and interior lights
-fix lock switch on driver side
-New struts
-New brakes and rotors
-New plugs and maybe new wires
-If I get really ambitious I may replace the exhaust manifolds or at least the one that has the slight leak
Not much work
Hopefully I will get a few ideas here.
Regards,
Alan
