I still have mine in the original carry bag. My wife used them one time this summer. They've been just sitting here for years. John

The Lock on the Driver's Door is intermittent, as in sometimes it will unlock and sometimes it takes a couple of pressing the Key Fob to unlock it. It still works with the Key and always unlocks using the inside door handle. The electric Actuator still functions but the Lock Button stays in the...

Thermostat update Well in the last part May this year, I was searching for a replacement Metal Thermostat Housing and ended up buying one on Amazon. It was installed using an OEM Thermostat and the Sensors that came with the Housing because we couldn't use the ones in the plastic Housing. So far...

Thanks! Didn't know that but it makes sense. I guess I'll check some scrap yards and see what I find.

I think why mine is failing again is the factory cushion is molded and the repair was done with pieces and they are likely moving around.

My wife arranged to have it rebuilt by a local upholstery shop. It was fine at first but it's now beginning to sink some again, but since I couldn't find a Ford replacement that was the only choice. I can't believe they didn't use the same cushion on a different model.

Thanks for the replies guys! Looks like I may delay getting one right now since we just went through a tornado last night and the place is a wreck.

Well not quite today but very recently. Fixed the overhead console display for probably the fourth time in 23 years I've owned my Gen 1 ST. Also replaced 2 Door Striker Bushings that had finally worn out. I was going to make new ones from some PEX Tubing but the OD was a little large and not...

EricP, I would love to have them. Please let me know how much shipping would be. John

Good morning! I've had my '01 Sport Trac since it was new. It's got 205,000 miles on it and for the most part has been trouble free. It uses no oil and I change it at 5,000 miles and have always used Mobil 1. It has the original transmission, and the timing tensioners were replaced at 60,000...
