In 2002, I accepted a job in England and was offered to bring my 2001 Job 2 Sport Trac 4x4 with me. In anticipation, and as an automotive electrician, I did a complete European lighting conversion on my truck so it would pass British Ministry of Transport inspection at the port. Among other...

Now. To get the projects and pics to transfer.

Testing.... One, two, three. Hey! It works!

I found and bought an Austekk aluminum billet two-piece thermostat housing. Includes two sensors, thermostat, and hardware for $66.00. I installed it tonight and it is perfect. The ebay listing is below the picture, if interested.

I've done a wee bit of research and I think Dorman 38438 is a single hinge pin kit for a Gen I. It looks like Dorman 703-270 is the kit that contains enough to do both upper and lower hinges on one door. Am I right?

My left rear leaf spring just broke on my 2001 4x4. Does anyone have a used one for sale?

My left rear leaf spring just broke on my 2001 4x4. Does anyone have a used one for sale? If broke about 12-inches from the front. Is the truck safe to drive in the meantime?

A hundred bucks? Used?

For ten years, when I open the drivers door with the headlights on and the ignition off, I haven't been getting a beeping "headlights on" alarm. If the drivers door is opened with the ignition on, I do not get a "door ajar" light. Plus, the dome lights do not work when the drivers door is...

I had to bite my tongue after a customer came to me with a gold dollar coin and couldn't figure out what it was. They've been made since 2000 and I just cannot believe he's never heard of them or seen one. It contained all of the mottoes, phrases, country ID, and denomination normally found on...

I'm a coin collector. I visited a coin shop in Minneapolis in 1990 to see what he had. It was a small, one-man shop. I asked if he had any bags (5000 coins) of Wheat pennies. He had one that weighed 38 pounds and said he'd sell it to me for $100. That was a steal. He said he'd been tossing...

Needed for a Gen 1.

My truck is back in my garage with a new transmission. Total cost with sales tax was $2588.61. He said the reverse band shattered into four pieces. He also said it was amazing that the forward gears continued to work because the fragments did quite a bit of damage. I can't even feel the new...

My 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac with a 5R55E transmission had its first transmission issue today. I went to back up out of a parking spot. I put the truck in reverse, backed up about 2 inches, then heard a bang under the truck. No reverse. Wouldn't engage. All forward gears working normally. No...

At a nice price?

Emptied out my storage unit today. Made it all in three trips.

On my phone. This is a first. Stranded. Thermostat shot. Got parts at O'Reilly. Fixing in the rain.

I just had a new windshield installed on Monday. While driving into the sunrise and sunset, I notice a very distracting haze on the exterior surface. The glass shop (Safelite) used their proprietary glass cleaner and I tried Windex and lacquer thinner in a small spot to see if it would make a...
