no just the tranny shop and the driveshaft guys.  the driveshaft guys think im gonna be fine...im even better than spicer specs according to them.  16*-17* seems like alot.  and rough country is insistent that i should be fine.  there really isnt a 4x4 place here...the best place for this area...

sorry...the 1st pic is angle at the pinion.  the second is at the transfer case.  the third is the driveshaft.  rebuilt transmission is installed at a local tranny shop and they are waiting for the new driveshaft which should be here friday.  they think that it is the pinion angle being too...

So the driveshaft i rebuilt ate itself up at the cardan joint that was replaced. it also locked up at the joint at about 60mph and the stress had to go somewhere so the transmission bell housing fractured. Catastrophic failure to say the least. instead of a new knuckle and take a chance that...

thanks in advance for any assistance provided to all.  replacing the cardan joint (the spring loaded ball) and all the u joints on the original one when i broke a seat for the last u joint cap on the H yoke.  Go figure...put all eight on and the last one broke.  looked to the heavens and said...

Hello all.  So...here's the story.  My kiddo got the Bronco for his graduation and he is experiencing some strange problems.  We rebuilt this 5.0 engine to stock specs about 2 years ago and over the summer it has been experiencing some issues that i think he might have induced.  He goes to...

Hey bro...if you havent done this yet, i have a 3 month old one that i could sell to you.  it reads 10-73 ohms and i think i got it in nov 2014 from JBG.  I chased this around for a while when i realized that i had the wrong unit in the tank ( 1990 needed the 16-160 ohms unit.)  i got that in...

disregard the post...i found the chapter in the haynes for this.  it is not adjustable so after preloading of the lifters torquing to appropriate specs is what is done.

have been in a rebuild on this bad boy over the past month...with the exception of the weather, all has gone well.  it is a stock rebuild...no MAF upgrade or aggressive cam.  it worked well for 200,000+ miles stock, it will work for another 200,000 miles (hopefully) with a stock rebuild that was...

Hey M5...thanks for the quick response. I was looking over your response and was already gonna go with the Walker option for the glasspacks because I can get them at oreillys. What I failed to make clear is that the PO bypassed the y-pipe completely and i have dual exhaust out the back...which...

Ok fellas...been hitting the forums frequently to find out how to fix all my issues along the way so it is great to have that as an option. Here is my new dilemma...previous owner ran straight pipes back to the mufflers and got rid of the catalytic converters. when i went to get it inspected I...

didnt know there were two pumps...is there one besides the one in the fuel tank? if so where is it.

i gotta drop the tank for this don't I? trying to see a quick disconnect with a mirror and I dont see it...is that C411? On the diagram it is just saying fuel pump/fuel sender connector. Would you recommend making a "door" for this from the top. I am sure i gotta be real careful with that...

wait just read post from you again M5...last line says to turn over and see if fp relay turns on to see if TFI and stator are good. why is that in the mix at all? havent done but on my way now to do it. ok i feel the relay energize when my boy turns engine over. this is a pump isnt it?

all grounds are connected and tight...even took some of them off and sanded bare metal to make sure of it. No changes...took out inertia switch and it is functioning fine. disengaging it with a good shake of the hand to move the ball bearing around inside and it is showing open. push switch...

oh it does turn over but just not getting the fuel pump to energize

Changed battery out because it was bad and now vehicle will not start on my 90 5.0. Vehicle was fine before the swapout which is baffling me. Replaced EEC power relay and FP relay with no change. Performed M5's fuel pump relay test at the diagnostic port after finding it from searching the...

miesk5, thank you my bro. as usual, you came through quick. thanks a lot...huge difference between $60 and $250.

I got an OTC 3226 UB 80 breakout box from ebay but it didnt come with the adapter for Ford EEC-IV. Does anyone know if i can use rotunda adapters with this box? they look mighty similar to me and are available as compared to the OTC module. if anybody knows with any certainty please reply.

so you are saying it is worth every penny...fair enough. did not know it did all that and i will start combing ebay looking for it. i am an electronics tech by trade and was gonna make one myself as i already possess a Fluke DVM and your right they are worth the money. so basically it is a...

Oh another thing miesk...can i rent that breakout box? $400 is not something i think i am prepared to spend on a randomly used tool. Advise if you know of a better deal than that or know if an autoparts store loans these out. got AZ, NAPA, Oreillys, Advanced in the area. thanks again.
