    Pre/Post timing chain issues of early Gen1

    My understanding is ford used a cheap part and by the time they became a major issue they changed suppliers and it would of not been a recall, or not mentioned in any manuals, i am still rocking the original part from my 04 i got new but only have 52k on her. i would listen and take note from...

    not sure where you are located ,but these 20 s and putting new tires on would save you quite a bit from the ones you mentioned. these were posted on facebook marketplace asking 500 yesterday off a 2010 limited sport trac, says they are in excellent shape, if you are still looking.

    Cold air intake

    Sometimes the filter has to much oil on it and causes a issue, try and remove for a minute and see if hessatation goes away, it will be off with air fuel ratio but see if it changes, normally they will not do any thing major when to much air flow if stock but restricted it will choke out, but as...

    2007 Right front wheel bearing

    I have had good results with timken but the box they sent 2 different times said timken but they were not, they put knock off brands in boxes, they have a reputation from consumer reports and reviews of doing it but i did not do my home work on them. if any one ever wants a new hub bearing they...

    Overlanding Mods + Vehicle life

    Susp. lift is the way to go, but finding one not so much, the trac does great off road. i was going to do a body on a different trac as i have done on jeeps and shackles.that would be way cheaper and allow for bigger more aggressive tires.i think it comes down to where are ya wheeling. rocks or...

    Front and Rear Shock Replacement

    I might point out that looking at my set up i would think it would not be to hard to add air bags from other trucks if ya can not find trac specific, they come with the plate but might have to fabricate a little but they work the same just bolt up different.
