    Wanted

    Looking for a set of slider windows that will fit 93 to 96 Broncos in decent condition? Maybe even someone who has rebuilt a set? I saw threads on these years ago in another form but haven't seen anything lately........Kevin.

    1996 Bronco top and rear interior parts

    Man I would be all over this if he would ship everything but the top, don't need it, to Calif. Same color and I'd love extra interior parts minus the top $ Kevin.

    New Ball Joint Issue

    Plus, I've been a back counterman for Ford for, well forever, and I've used Moog products exclusively if I don't get OEM stuff for years! They have always been a great vendor and produce a fantastic, as close to OEM quality product, as anyone out there. That picture looks to me like somehow that...

    New Ball Joint Issue

    That's the hard part about buying things online. If somebody brings a part, or has their aftermarket warranty contract insurance company supply a used engine, because they don't like our new engine price, into our Ford dealership, we will install it but we won't warranty it because you or they...

    2005 Excursion Rear Leafs

    So far so good! The drive-shaft is solid and connected to the pinion yoke with zero movement and the clunk is gone. I still have a slight vibration but there are other things I need to rule out like my tires which I recently purchased used and are slightly cupped on the outer edges. They are...

    2005 Excursion Rear Leafs

    So my buddy came over Wed and we decided to use the old pinion nut so that we had the original mark still on it and in the right place. We ended up having to use two pipe wrenches and a piece of pipe and a breaker bar to tighten the nut down enough. The compressor and impact gun got close but we...

    2005 Excursion Rear Leafs

    So another update to my previous update. We took the pinion nut off and the yoke came off with only the force of the seal lightly pushing behind it. That wasn't good right off the bat since they usually need a little tap to get them on. The yoke also wobbles back and forth more than normally so...

    2005 Excursion Rear Leafs

    Well a little update. I removed the u-bolts that came with the Sterling and went over to Loomis Ca. about 10 minutes from my house to RuffStuff and picked up some new one's. I bought the spring plates from them and they were 1/4" and very beefy so I checked their website and grabbed four- 5/8"...

    holley carbs (again)...

    I came into this post late but wanted to give you my opinion for what it's worth. I have run a few Holley's in my day and they seem to always need attention from getting dirty and the needle and seats plugging up and leaking. I finally switched to Edelbrock carbs because there are no gaskets...

    cold air intake for 351

    Sunny California totally fer sure dude but also because mine is different on my '96 Fred. The top is still mounted to the upper radiator support but the bottom was mounted (stock) to the side of the support next to the radiator. They both pulled in fresh air but the bottom one sat really low so...

    mpg upgrades ??

    Get rid of those E3's because they will flag a check engine light and when they do you'll have no idea what it is for. Throw in a set of regular old Autolite 24's or Motorcraft non-platinum's and don't worry about the expensive ones. Put a new cap and rotor on and a higher volt coil about 48,000...

    2005 Excursion Rear Leafs

    I torqued the u-bolts to 160 ft lbs after putting the stock 6 deg wedges back and removing the bottom two leafs and now it is making noise and the wheels sort of "click" and when I move from forward to reverse and back again the pinion and drive-shaft move up and down quite a bit?? I think the...

    Front Locking Diff on Daily driver

    It's got 3.54 in the front and 3.55 in the rear so 4.56 would be fine like Wileec said. That will be plenty on the street and will work fine off road when you do too. If you plan on wheeling it you may want to just install a locker instead of a limited slip in the rear. I wouldn't go up to 4.88...

    Horn Issues**HELP**

    Before you take it off you could run a ground wire to the battery itself, if you haven't fixed this already, to verify it's the ground. If it works unbolt and clean if not, check the relay or bypass it to rule out the positive wire itself. This is a side note but my wife works at Harbor Freight...

    coolant leak

    My '96 did everything you're talking about. I changed the radiator cap and then the thermostat and gasket and still it leaked. I finally replaced the water pump and hoses because the pump started leaking out the weep hole. I was working on it in my garage one day and the neighbor's handyman came...

    purging fuel rail i really need help

    Hey Al I don't remember, how far back do inertia switches go in Fords? It really is an easy way to leak down the fuel rails and as of yet I haven't had to bleed the schrader valve to remove any trapped air in the fuel rails. >:) -Kevin-

    Overheating

    I was going to suggest maybe some gasket sealant was keeping the thermostat partially open/closed and trapped one heck of a air bubble somewhere inside the motor because of it collapsing the coolant hose. You would see some oil floating in the radiator and some white smoke out the tailpipe if it...

    Voltmeter add-in?

    That fits your dash cluster nicely and I don't care for the lower add-on gauges either. They tend to hit knees or seats break them off plus they just look too cluttered. I like the way you incorporated the gauge and blended it in so unless you really look you'd never know it's been replaced. I'm...
