Which head unit is that? I like it.

I've got an '02 with 150k miles. I've done all of the scheduled maintenance and a trans flush every 30k miles (in the early days of this forum, that was recommended with these transmissions). I think I had the pan dropped, instead of the flush, the last time. I don't believe I've ever had the...

35th Anniversary Edition. I think it was 1999.

I modified a Mustang hood scoop, and had it painted to match. It's attached with 3M double-sided tape.

Nice truck! I have a 2002 Torredor Red Trac also. Quite a few mods, inside and out. 150k miles so far. Had to replace the four body mount bushings under the cab last year. This pic was taken on our move to Oregon in 2015. (Excuse the little crunchie on the fender 😆)

Good suggestion. The tilt column will stretch against the wiring harness and pull some wires loose when tilted too far down. Usually, the turn signals are the victim when that happens. This is a common problem on Gen 1 Tracs.

I have garage envy. :D

Looks terrific. Hard to believe it isn't new. Congratulations!

It'll be more fun for you coming back, I'm sure. Good luck!

It's a secret. 😆

I have the same plug. As far as the oil filter goes, I roll the sides of a Ziploc baggie down and line it with paper towels. Once I've loosened it with a wrench, I grab the filter with the baggie in my hand, and unscrew it. The bag captures the oil without getting any on my arm.

I agree. Chips were popular in the 2000s, but a retune is better.

Wow, that's quite a list. You're going to have a pretty sweet truck when you're done. Care to share some pics?

Yeah. Mine loosened all the way and fell on the floor. It was quite a challenge figuring out where it came from, then putting it back in.

Still driving my 2002. Original owner. It will probably be my daily driver until they take my keys away from me. 😃

That looks frustrating as hell. Until you figure out the problem, maybe try installing a quick-connect/disconnect switch on the battery so it won't drain while it's parked. Inconvenient, yes; but not as inconvenient as a dead battery. Good luck, and keep us updated.

We love our Casita. This will be our second camping season with it. We've got several boondocking trips planned this year. We've only camped with hookups up to now, so that'll be interesting. No troubles so far. It's heavy enough to require a WD hitch, but doesn't exceed the Trac's weight...

Thanks. I modified a 35th anniversary Mustang GT scoop to fit the ST hood. Took a little cutting, and some Bondo to fill the gaps. Turned out to be a lot of work, but I'm happy with the results. The contours match the hood perfectly. There used to be a project in the Archives, but I don't...

No, I've never towed it. On that trip, we were moving our household from Texas to Oregon. I was the lead vehicle, providing navigation. We lived in the motor home until we bought our "new" house; then sold it. I wish you luck with your health. My father suffered with Parkinson's, so I'm...

Actually, the only thing I tow with the Sport Trac is our 17' travel trailer. 😃
