Nice truck! And welcome to the group!

I think i paid around $100 for mine off ebay. Found a few rangers but no explorers to nab one from. Nothing wrong with my stock one, i just wanted one with the factory rear defrost switch to wire up my heated mirrors.

Well if it dont, ill replace it with a pioneer

I havent installed my system yet either. I ordered a new bezel for an explorer so i can wire up my new heated signal mirrors to the defrost button. I went with a boss double din touch screen with back up camera, same one that munnday86 installed on his youtube video. I also have all jbl...

Went on to try and get the right fron mount out...rounded nut off a few weeks ago, so i removed the airbox to get in there with a nut splitter(which didnt work, time to bring out the little zip wheel), anyways and attached to the metal plate that the airbox is attached to there was a 4 space...

Well i snapped 2 t50 torx bits so far trying to get the front seats out. Really gonna suck when i have to get the interior out to do some rust mitigation and repairs before i bedliner the floor and firewall prior to putting in my new rubber floor. Bet i will ber replacing those 2 bilts with...

Weather didnt wanna cooperate, but atleast i got the bushings on the driverside done. Maybe get the other side done this coming weekend. Also gotta see where my little coolant leak is. I noticed a small wet spot on the parking lot when i came out of church. In the center, so i suspect its either...

Now that i have my brand new front a rear bushings here, now hopefully i can get the body mount bushings done today so i can quit having to drive one of my powerstrokes everywhere. Hope it doesnt take all day as i would also like to get started replacing the transfercase on my plowtruck.

My fronts were from top to bottom, nut, large washer, core support, body shim, threaded upper cup and rubber, frame bracket, lower rubber and cup and then the bolt.

What a friggin debacle replacing body mount bushings has become. Got the polyurethane bushing kit in and of course the front and rear ones were ok, but i wanted to replace them all while i was doing it...left front, went to remove nut from topside and snapped the bolt...put a pair of chain grips...

Theres a lot of them in west Tennessee. I see several everday.

If you have an oriellys nearby, order a coil connector, Part # S658 Line: STD. $21

Actually, when i did mine, i left the coil bolted to the bracket and unbolted the bracket and had plenty of room. And the pigtail i got had the same wiring colors as my factory plug. I soldered mine in using the good old western union splice and marine grade heat shrink tubing with the glue...

I had the exact same problem. And it was causing my vehicle to die and not start. I temporarily used zipties around connector and coil pack, horizontally above where the wire harness comes out of connector. Solved problems but i did go to my local oriellys and ordered a new pigtail(connector...

Just curious what everyone is running on their 1st gens as far as brakes go. Ive been eyeballing the powerstop z36 pad and rotor kit, but i have never had any dealings with them. Most of my older trucks i just run the factory rears with ceramic pads up front(f250s and f350 with factory hd brakes)

Already fixed. Out a couple hundred miles on it so far and no more problems

Well appearantly i wiggled something wrong around the coil pack wiring harness, cause no i have a crank no start, same as it did last night. I had cleared codes and went to start, crank no start. And now scan tool says unable to establish connection...

Ok with it running, i gently touched the wiring harness behind connector, and it immediately shut off. I suspect my suspicions about that may be right. Also, does the trans always pump to cooler or is there a thermostatic valve so it only pumps once its warmed up?

I checked the wire harness connector on coil, it was plugged in(some one previously that changed the drivers vc gasket, broke the lock that holds it to coilpack(probably the same one that lost a few of the bolts on that side)). Got in and it fired right up. Got it turned around and up the...

On mine, it is rubber from the this connection, all the way to the auxiliary cooler in front of radiator. Top one is hard tube from radiator back. Other hard line runs under core support and changes to rubber to other side of auxiliary.
