My odometer is showing 69500 and I am wondering if I should go and have mine checked. I still can't be sure that the noise I hear is the timing chain. It does occur at the right rpm, but I don't know about the noise. Does anyone have solid proof that the tsb on the timing chain was extended to...

Where are you placing the sensor on the tranny itself??

Where do you plan to install the tranny temp gauge??? I would like to do the same.

Hello all I am short right now on cash and would like to purchase some shocks. I need to know if there is any harm in installing the front and rear shocks at different times. In other words, install back shocks this week and then front shocks in about 2 months. Thanks again for your help...

I would like to paint my grey cladding. I have black 2001 ST. I was thinking of flat black. I don't want to match the vehicle finish. Any opinions. I have seen some that painted black, but had other body colors. Just wondering what you all think.

Hello All I have seen many different air intake systems available for the ST. What are the advantages to the very expensive models like the K&N FIPK. I noticed a member on the board made his own that drew air from in front of the engine bay. Will the engine gain performance regardless of...

Just called sears for a price check on monroe reflexes for the front of my 01. They quoted 69.99 each and free installation. Seems really high. Are they just building the labor into the price of the shock??

I have thought of the timing chain rattle. wish I knew what it sounded like. Is it true that the TSB was extended to 70,000 on that rattle. I am running 87 octane.

Hello All Oklahoma got a dose of hot weather today. 85 degrees. I was driving home with the a/c on. RPM's at 1600, speed around 50. I turned the radio off to answer my phone and heard pinging (valve chatter???) What could this be from?? My trac has 67,000 miles on it, if that makes a...

Hello all I need new tires for my 01 trac badly, but don't have near the budget that most of you guys have. (I am stilling paying on my trac) I need some good tires that are less than 100 dollars each. Is there such a thing. I definately cannot spend 600 plus on a set of tires.

I did some testing on the way home. The sound does not occur when the vehicle is in park or neutral only while driving. It sounds sort of like running water behind the dash. I also did hear some valve chatter on the way home today. What could that be??????? If this is the timing chain tsb will...

I don't think I use the cruise control at that high of rpm. That would be over 70 right. This summer in montana I was up over 70 using the gas pedal and I her this shhhhh sound. I know what valve chatter sounds like and it isn't that. It happens between 2500 and 3000 no other time.

Hello All I have been reading as many posts as I can about this timing belt issue, but I am still un clear. At exactly 2500 rpm i here a sound behind the dash like Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. As soon as the rpm go below 2500 the sound disappears. Is this the timing chain issue. I have never heard...

There are a set of ford running boards for a sport trac on ebay. I would like to purchase them. Will these fit any year sport trac???

Andy How much does your trailer weigh fully loaded? What model is it? How long is it? The pictures shows that it might have a slide out???

If you look at this picture. The ball is mounted 1 inch in front of the rear axle, but look how far back the trailer sits. I guess maybe I should just give up, I was sure this was the perfect light weight trailer for the ST.[Broken External Image]:

I'm pretty confident that it is going to work. This fifth wheel is all fiberglass. It weighs around 2700 lbs fully loaded. I have chatted with many folks that have them and tow with rangers. The 5er is short because it is specially made for the less than 1/2 ton trucks out there. In fact many...

Is the Ford Ranger that much different than the ST. As I said earlier, the factory says that most of these 5th wheels are being towed by ford rangers and dodge dakotas

Jim How did you post the picture in the message. I couldn't figure out how??? To fmarano, wouldn't 400 lbs be better over the axle than on the rear end as would be with a normal travel trailer??

Check out these pictures. The goose neck has the trailer sitting way back in the bed of the truck.
