Well, Green has been seeing a lot of tool time lately...



All the common high mileage crap is starting to go.



Brakes, Tires, Shocks, T-Case leak, Crank seal leak, Drivers side PCV broken valve cover leak, bad PCV elbow, Oil changes, T-stat housing, Coolant, Sway bar bushings and end links, Front and back !! and misc other crap.



and ofcurse snapped bolts is a common thing now..... Ohh well !!!



Time to Get cranking and get her ready for the winter and back to 100% !!!!



Body bushings are next !!!!



Wish me luck !

Sounds like fun too me!

The valve cover is leaking on the drivers side where the PCV goes in? How'd that happen? How did you find it? Could you hear it? Is it a crack?

...maybe you should've followed the instructions in the project section a little better! :) J/K couldn't resist
 
LOL !!!



Some strress or heat caused it..... Georges did the same thing....



Ohh well...

my new (old) trac is green too! 2001 with 80,000



I had the body bushing problem too...replaced them with the black eurethane at like

one tenth the ford price..

they squeak a ton..

any fix for this..can I spray them with some type of spray carbide lubricant or something???

please help..squeak is embarrassing as hell when I pull up at soccer practice etc...!!!

 
I see on line they need to re torqued after 1,000 miles of driving and then again later on....



If there is space they will squeek a ton too....



This is what pisses me off with this crap..... and some of the ford parts are discontinued !!!!
