    Gaskets.....

    I usually go to oriellys if you have one close, and out of all my local stores, they are usually the cheapest and have common parts on hand, and can get them shipped in by the next day.

    Power gains with basic mods?

    On the 1st gen, would it dump out ok infront of the wheel and look good? I think on mine the gas tank is pretty low, so the pipe would be low and look goofy, but I'd have to look at it again.

    Dick Cepek Baja Lights

    I am going to get them sometime in the next few weeks, since it is still pretty cold to put them on now while it is freezing outside. My next question is not that they wont be bright, but if I got some HID replacement bulbs for the halogens that they come with, will they be ok to swap?

    Navigator and Expedition Transfer Case

    Nvy, have you been able to try the brown wire mod yet? I would be interested in trying to change the switch, but for some reason, my auto4 doesn't work, but high and low do.

    Expedition and Smartcar

    HAHA I laugh every time I see someone in one of those. Its funny how people will do anything to save some money on gas, it will be a very cold day before I ever own something like that, besides my lawnmower. Walnuts, why don't you go find one and just park over it. . ..

    What size wheels would be best for 35x14.5x16.5?

    I looked around a little and didn't find much but these, but they are only 16.5x9.75 http://www.rosetire.com/productdetail.htm?productId=3358880 Most of the 16.5 wheels are on 8 lug wheels, so.... to save some money on your tires, you could do a conversion to 3/4 axles and while your at it...

    Wish I had one of these

    By the way NC-Expy, what wheels do you have? They look very sharp on your rig!

    Wish I had one of these

    I completely agree! I love the whistle of turbos. I would love a turbo expy, but for what it will cost to install a turbo and upgrade the rest of the truck to be able to handle the power, I'll wait to get my Powerstroke and then do some expensive upgrades. . . though I still wouldn't pass down a...

    Dick Cepek Baja Lights

    What do you guys think of these lights? They are discontinued, but are on ebay for a pretty good price. I am thinking about getting 6 of the 130W to put 4 my roof rack, and maybe the other 2 behind my grill with the Hellas. Has anyone seen these before? I think they are a pretty good deal...

    Paxton Novi 2000 Supercharger

    I found this link on craigslist in Minneapolis. 1900 for a brand new Paxton Novi 2000 polished supercharger. Guy has had it on the shelf for a few years and wants to get rid of it. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hn...167045898.html

    Gear shifter will not go into parker

    So can you still move it through all of the other positions, or is it just stuck there? Last summer, mine randomly got stuck, and I took the cable off where it attaches to the transmission and sprayed it down with WD-40, and it has worked fine since.

    2 questions

    1. If your plugs haven't been replaced recently, you should replace them, along with new wires or COPs. depending on which motor you have. I would have a shop do this if you don't have very much mechanical experience, but if you do, you will be fine to do yourself as long as you go slow. ~150...

    DIY Rear Coil Spring Spacers "How-To"

    How have you been liking your spacers? Have you done much off roading with them, and highway travel? They look really easy to make, and I have some good polyurethane at home that would work great for the rubber.

    Driving Lights with High Beams

    I originally had my Hellas wired in with my brights, but then I changed it and wired them in the the corner lights also. Now I can turn them on with or without having my headlights on. Since I don't have fog lights, I have the Hellas pointed down as far as they will go and it works pretty good...

    Looking for Rotors and pads...

    I did a quick search on ebay and there are lots of different rotors and pads. I think I remember a thread about someone who bought a set off ebay and liked them, but I don't remember who they were...

    oil

    I lose some oil in mine, but its from a small leak in my valve cover gasket. Its a very small leak, but its enough to leak onto my exhaust manifold and smell. Its a cheap fix, but I am going to wait until spring for some warmer temps.

    My personal opinion of the two body styles.

    I also like the 1st gens the most. I think they look great with lifts. The newer gens look better for street trucks, but i'm not much into trucks that aren't used off pavement. I do wish i had the motors that are in the newer gens though.

    removing the gauge cluster

    I remember reading a thread about switching to LEDs on F150 online, but most of the time, the LED was really bright and didn't have even light throughout the gauges. I didn't think it looked very good, but that was an old thread. I'm sure someone has made it look better by now. I will see if I...

    Have you helped a Chevy lately?

    I hate when people come by, but don't offer to help. I got stuck in the mountains this winter, but got lucky. It was a pretty decent size snow bank and I fell through, and my buddy came up with his 2500 Chevy and but he couldn't even get through the easy stuff to get close. So then I went back...

    Have you helped a Chevy lately?

    I would agree, but I don't think its really necessary when its never been a competition to begin with.

    No power going Up Hill???

    The 4.6 is a nice motor. .. in a mustang. I personally think it is a joke to put it in a 2 1/2 ton truck when the 5.4 is available. My 4.6 is very reliable and have never had any major problems, but at 7000 feet, it still gets around fine, but is working at some high rpms. Some forced induction...

    Have you helped a Chevy lately?

    When I pulled out the guy yesterday, I had go up a hill, and up the side of the shoulder through about the same depth to get in front of him and then pull him out. Him and his buddy were digging for 3 hours. I think they were very appreciative. It was actually the easiest time to get someone...

    Worst Stuck

    I don't think there is one yet, so we should start a thread with stories or pics of your worst stuck. I don't have any pictures of being stuck myself, but probably my worst time stuck was just a couple of weeks ago when I dropped through a long, deep snow drift. My wheels were about 8 inches off...

    Have you helped a Chevy lately?

    I just felt like starting a new thread, because everytime I go up to the mountains to try to do some coyote hunting, I end up pulling out a Chevy. So far I've pulled out 4 different Chevys, and one Ford. Including the times I have been stuck in my life, even with my old 2 wheel drive truck, it...
