Hey all, When my dash lights are on, the center area (including the gear selection indicators) of the instrument cluster is no longer illuminated. All the other instruments are lit, so I assume I've got a burned-out bulb on the Instrument Cluster Circuit Board. How much of a hassle is...

I need help from some experts. please. I climbed into the Trac to drive to work this morning. Dome lights came on as usual. Put the key in the ignition switch and turned it to the first notch. Everything seems normal until I turn the key all the way to start. The entire electrical...

That picture could go in a Ford sales brocure. Nice truck!

So who's gonna be running things while he's under the knife?

As I was installing my wheels this weekend, I wondered if I have been using the proper technique to torque down the lug nuts, all these years. Here's how I've always done it: After snugging up the wheel nuts (in a criss-cross pattern) with a standard lug wrench, I adjust my torque wrench...

Hey guys! I've got a question regarding the install of the rotors - which I'm in the middle of doing right now. This is such a stupid problem, but I need some advice on the best way to solve it. I thought I had all the tools I needed for this job. I've got the torque wrenches to put the...

Look what Santa brought. The rotors and pads are going on today. The Powertrax goes on the first chance I get. :) [Broken External Image]:

I'm advertising my Harley on CycleTrader.com for $14,750, with the idea of negotiating down from there. I got an e-mail from a guy who sounds like he's acting as a dealer or agent for an interested buyer, asking for my lowest asking price. I told him $14,250 was the lowest I could go (still...

I'm gonna be replacing my front brake pads and rotors pretty soon, and I wanted opinions on the Ferro-Carbon Hawk pads EE sells (link below). I want the Cryo Powerslot rotors they sell, too. What do you think of these Ferro-Carbon pads for a Sport Trac that doesn't tow - just for everyday...

Add mine to the list of testimonials for the Zabteck throttle body mod. I didn't think there could possibly be that much of a difference in performance, but WOW! The Trac is a LOT quicker now. Man, it's is a lot more fun to drive now. If you're on the fence with this mod - DO IT...

My new Mag-Hytec differential cover arrived yesterday. I'm really impressed with the quality of this unit. In addition to a higher oil capacity over stock, I'm also going to like being able to service the differential without having to take the cover off (after this one goes on). I like...

I just bought a Screamin' Demon coil pack from your web site. I already have an XCal-1 (with two performance tunes) that I bought from Wayne Foy, back when Wayne was cool. :cool: Do I need to get my tunes updated to take advantage of the new coil pack? Thanks.

I just saw your project. Nice write-up. I may have to try it.

This looks like a nifty tonneau option. Wonder if it fits the Sport Trac? [Broken External Image]:

My navigation system requires a connection to the reverse light circuit. I found two identical looking wires (18 ga. Black w/ Pink stripe) running inside a wire chase under the driver's side floor trim panel next to the rear door. If I tap one of them, the nav unit behaves as though the...

Well, I found a use for it! I mounted the remote IR sensor for my DVD player behind it. It works perfect! Nice and stealthy. Thought I'd share the idea. [Broken External Image]:

I suspect I already know the answer, but would like to hear from the car A/V experts. Are wired infrared sensors for hidden audio/video components, manufacturer or function specific? More to the point, can an IR sensor for a Kenwood navigation unit be used to operate an XO Vision DVD...

What is the best way to connect multiple A/V components to a switched accessory power source? There appear to be several options, but what do some of you A/V experts prefer (wire color and location)? Is there a place under the dash or fuse panel you have found easy to access? I'm...

This is the KDV-S210P DVD player from Kenwood. Brand new, never installed, in the original factory packaging. <img src='http://www.zjstech.net/~library/3497/DVD%20Player/KDV-S210P-1.JPG'> <img src='http://www.zjstech.net/~library/3497/DVD%20Player/KDV-S210P-2.JPG'> <img...
