Ok Ok..... I have been asked to put this photo here by about 10 people now... so here goes


what do ya think?????

Nice. I like the clock and the hand operated parking brake. Your steering wheel is worn out like mine was.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

where can i get a new steering wheel from ?

 

[RiverRat]

Try a online ford parts store.

SWEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTT

My steering wheel does that too, it makes me mad when i get into my 97 ranger which is in mint condition. then look over at the X which is supposed to be nicer in theory.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

im going to trade it for a mustang when i go to college..

 

[onelasttry]

if youre going to go down to something that has no space in it, just get a lightning. you can still drive it rough like a truck and haul serious a$$ in the process.
Instead of prissing over potholes and worrying about hurting things.

sorry, "Me likes trucks"

 

[SmokeGrinder]

that would remind me of the x to much..... and thats a bad thing... as its in the shop having a new tranny as we speak...

here it is ...........

Your not the only one with a RHD

Only dif is stock radio and leather seats. You can see my clock. I'm not very happy with it but I could not find anything else local.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

dude you are almost out of gas

 

[Howard]

As you can see my driveway slopes and this gives a false reading on the gauge.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

yeah i had that once! and the thing would not start!
my one is in the shop getting a new Transmission right now......
after that i am going to sell it before i go to college in september.... I want to trade it in for a mustang..

 

[Howard]

Well I hope all goes ok. I've only got 20k miles on mine so I hope it will last for some time yet.

 

[onelasttry]

I suppose i'm to assume everything oversea's is backwards...lol. going DOWNHILL gives the guage a low reading, parking uphill gives it a higher reading. everything is backwards with you guys. lol.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

onelasttry good point!! no you are right ..... if its pointing downhill then you would have less fuel ....

 

[SmokeGrinder]

20k on it!!!! dude you dont go anywhere!!!!
I have done 127,000 miles in my one!
what year is yours? my one is a 98

 

[Howard]

Absolutely correct and I never said that I had more gas. But I notice on mine if the ignition is off over night the gauge does not read correctly anyway.

Edit: Mine is a december 1998 so it's almost a 99. It had 11k when I bought it one year ago.

 

[SmokeGrinder]

Howard make sure you sell yours before something does go wrong!

I cant begin to tell you what it was like trying to get a Transmission for it here in the UK. and it was even harder trying to find somone to fit it!!

I mean a range rover is a UK car and they do those all the time here........ so whats the diffrence.... but if your explorer goes wrong over here..... thats it!

 

[Howard]

I think it depends on your mechanical ability. Of course you need access to the parts and I have found a place in Bedford that specialises in american car parts. They can source any part that you want. I've just done the brakes and uj's no problem.

sounds like you guys have as much fun finding ford parts as we do finding porsche parts.
