    Yesterday I could not get a key fob to pair with my ST. I did some research and found some threads about disconnecting the battery. Did that and got my new fob to pair....that was the expected result. Now the has this happened to anyone else part: My back window stopped working months...

    Hood blackout Explorer emblem

    The bug guard I put on the ST bit the dust and cracked in half so had to do something new with the front of the ST. Found a hood black out decal for the F150 and the Explorer Sport hood decal that I decided would update the look of my front end.

    Pics of hood black out

    Anyone black out their Gen 1 hood and have pics they can share? Vinyl? Plasti Dip, LineX? Do it yourself or have it done for you? Time to get rid of my hood stripes and bud shield and get a new look for the front end.

    Front and rear map/dome and glove box lights

    Until today my map/dome and glove box lights were all working normally. Today no lights when I open the doors, use the switches or use the dimmer now on the dash. The overhead console is working fine otherwise, including the compass and power sunroof. All other lights are ok and working as are...

    Signal mirror kit- clearance

    I know signal mirrors have been on gen 1 ST owners list of mods and these seem to be a really good price on clearance stock. They are listed for the Ranger but my understanding is the Ranger and 1st gen ST used the same mirror glass.

    Map light conversion

    I wanted to do a simple 194 to LED 194 conversion on my map lights. When I untwisted the socket the ribbon cable tore, common problem from what I have found, with no replacement ribbon cable available without buying a complete overhead console. So the conversion began, I found this great...

    black Ford emblems

    Ordered some domed black Ford emblems for the grill, tailgate and steering wheel. Pretty nice quality and they were really easy to apply over the existing emblems. These are domed so they should last much longer than overlay stickers. Got them from [email protected] in case anyone is...

    Wheel hub

    Got the classic hum/rumble that goes away when I turn right. It's a steady hum/rumble that does not increase in pitch with speed after it becomes noticeable at 15mph. Likely it is the wheel hub bearing gone bad on my 02 4wd. I am thinking it is the drivers side since the symptoms go away...

    new nerf bars

    Getting tired of removing, sanding, painting my rusty nerf bars. Another winter and the rust is bleeding back through. Decided to take the plunge on what appear to be a moderately priced set of side steps. Made of aluminum billet so as long as the finish holds up I will not have to deal...

    Flip Key

    I have a 16yo son starting to drive and I wanted a 3rd set of programmed keys just in case one got lost (by him). After seeing many high end and newer vehicles with their fancy retractable keys I decided it was time for another project. Ordered a flip key with remote that was supposed...

    Linex and wheels

    A big thank you goes out to Tom R and Jerry Pollen for the excellent projects on removing side trim, front and rear bumpers. They made it very easy to get all the parts off the ST to get Linex'ed. I also took the opportunity to replace my factory wheels with some American Racing AR321 Fuel...

    2 or 4 tires

    I bought 2 new tires for the rear of my 4x4 ST and was told by the shop that did my state inspection I should have done all 4. The reason given was the worn fronts, when in 4x4, would rotate faster than the brand new rears and could cause problems. I questioned the slight difference...

    Reese Front Hitch help

    2002 4wd with tow hooks and Westin push bar. Bought a Reese front hitch to maneuver the boat around the driveway and into the garage easier. I will also use the hitch for a bike rack and whatever other accessories I find. Now for the issue, there are what appear to be transmission...

    Toyota Prius Batteries

    I have a friend who has been driving his Prius since 2005, 169k on it and he bought it new. He was at the Toyota dealer today for diagnosis of loss in power and low battery charge levels and was told he had some bad cells in the battery pack..... $4200 to replace. No warranty...

    Gas prices

    Gas in my area is hovering at $3.749. Excerpted from an AP article: I am glad to see that since 1973 we have really done nothing to become energy independent.

    Wiring fogs

    I come here because someone will know how to do this.... I found prior relay wiring diagrams that match how I wired my off road lights on my Sport Trac but this situation is a little different. I have a KIA Sedona minivan (wife's daily driver). It did not come with fog lights. I...
