What did you do to the expy today

Bummer to hear about your trans bud, but at least your truck looks good, even while having one gear!

I added a drain plug to the front axle housing.

Located the center of the lowest part of the housing, on the back edge there is a beveled are where the rounded are meats with the flat bottom of the casting. Drilled a hole for the 1/8 npt tap, used the evacuating fluid to flush the drill debris as well as the tap chips. Had some extra synth lube on hand and used that to ensure all chips flushed out. Used a brass 1/8 plug and then filled the diff with amsoil.

The rear diff has proper drain plugs, as does the t-case (both drained and filled with amsoil)

I replaced the radio / Head Unit with a "factory one".

That's a good looking head unit, what brand is that?

I'm not exactly sure. It just says "Ford" when you turn it on. There is a youtube video that shows the radio installation and it says "Ford Clarion", but I didn't see that name anywhere else.

Clarion is an older car audio manufacturer that probably paired up with Ford. How's it sound? You know what they say about first impressions. That ones a 5'9 brunette entering the room wearing a short red dress!

It actually sounds great! I was somewhat surprised since I didn't put in new speakers. I did have to install the "Ford" amp that came with it though, so maybe that's why. The bass is about the same, but the treble sounds better and it's clearer.
