I have a brand new front pair of power stop brake callipers for sale for 2005 ST 4x4. Paid $240 CAD. Make me an offer. Will ship anywhere in Canada.

So you I’m getting sick of replacing my front sway bar end links every other year. Because I have a torsion twist the sway bar link bushings don’t last too long due to the extreme angle. So here’s what I did today, I cut and drilled two steel tubes 1”x2” and put it between the frame and sway bar...

It takes a good amount of force to push/pull the plunger button. It would be highly unlikely to accidentally release the brakes.

I should also mention, I'm not familure with fire engines so there may be some differences.

Wheel chalks are not needed. When the park brake is applied air is exhausted from the brake pots which contain a very powerful spring that extends and applies constant break pressure. The air brake system is a great reliable and SAFE system. Wheel chalks are to be used for inspecting/adjusting...

I'm having the exact same issue but less severe

Im 80% sure the thud is coming from the transfer case. It feels like it's directly under my seat. It's always been there, even after new tires. It doesn't happen often but definitely doesn't sound healthy.

Thanks Yardsale

I remember when my truck was stock the transfer case would "thud" occasionally while in 4x4. I was told by the local ford shop that it was due to my rear tires being slightly more worn then the front tires. I've never had any problems are the transfers case occasionally sound like I hit a big...

I think I'm gonna keep it open. I really need to re gear though. Because it's so expensive I'll likely do the rear first until I can afford the front. I know that's like buying glasses but only getting one lens, I get it. I think I should be ok as long as I don't use 4x4. Maybe take out the fuse...

I choose the duratrac's because I live in Manitoba and our winters are long and cold with plenty of snow/ice. I really do want some variation of traction adder but I've read so much conflicting opinions of their winter performance on icey roads. I'm very comfortable with how my truck reacts on...

4:56 is exactly what I was realistically thinking. I called a local shop about going from 4:10 to 4:56. They quoted me 300$ for the rear and 600$ for the front, that's just labour! I do all my own wrenching on my trac but I think differentials are beyond my skill unfortunately.

So basically your saying I need this? http://modd.me/product/02-05-2dr-explorersport-trac-supercharger-kit/

Today I found a nice little spot to get my truck dirty. The mud was a lot deeper then I initially thought, in fact my bumper was pushing mud. I had her in 4x4L and she crawled like a champ. My 33x12.5 duratracs really suprised me! At one point I was at WOT and hit some very deep Mud and I...

Honestly, I really couldn't tell. I think it was the idler pulley. After removing and inspecting both the idler and tensioner pulleys I couldn't really find a problem.
