I searched, but had not seen any prior mention of this site so I figured I'd offer it along. <a href="http://www.snoman.com/HTML/axlecalc_5a.html" target="_newwindow">Snoman - Axle Ratio & Tire Size Calculations</a> In my quest to 'do stuff' to my ST, I'm considering larger tires...

To quote a classic! This is probably a question for Steve, the proclaimed master of correcting interior cabin noise: If I drive around 55 mph with the speed control engaged, my gas pedal vibrates like there is no tomorrow. It has actually been doing this for qas long as I can remember...

Starting a discussion thead regarding my installation of an OE replacement of the Upper Control Arms (UCA) on my ST. (Sorry hdt!) First: :worthless: I'll post some later today after I've had my morning caffeine. I am using this thread to share my experience in tackling this...

As I was servicing the TB and IAC last night I noticed that there is a problem with the speed control cable where it attaches to the throttle body. There is supposed to be a single plastic sheath that guides the cable as it tensions, but it is cracked in several places. It will need to be...

[edit: See below (Post 10) for pictures of the actual product. I purchased the cover discussed in this thread] MyST'ers, I'm looking for a differential cover with a drain plug, and a little style. I have an opportunity to pick up a G2 differential cover locally, and competitvely...

About at my wit's end here. This is day two of trying to replace this filter, and the issue is the same as before. I can get the From Tank side of the fuel line off just fine, but I'm stuck on getting the To Engine side off. I've sprayed WD-40, pushed and pulled, tried leveraging and...

[Edit:] If you're reading this thread from the beginning, the basic idea is: 1. PepBoys has the wrong information for ST transmissions, and gear oils in their system. Be careful when selecting items using their automated system. 2. Dropping the transmission fluid pan only replaces a...

So, today was "Install Moog K80085 Rear Sway Bar End Link Kit" day. That project went fairly well, but I simply can't let the opportunity to tidy up a bit go to waste! Just one question to ask before I get on with the rest of the post: What's the impact of lubricating the Moog K80085...

MyST'ers, I'm installing the 4.5155R front sway bar link and bushing kit, and the Ford manual says 18 FT LB torque on the nut... well, I'm cranking away and it just seems like all I'm doing is squashing the bushings. That just doesn't sound right to me, so does anyone have tips on the...

MyST fellows, I thought I'd post some beginning pictures of an ongoing project of mine. After years of neglect, brake dust, and chemical exposure, my poor rims are in need of some serious maintenance. A few months ago, I started the process of learning as far as vehicle maintenance...

Aided with my trusty smartphone (I'm literally under my truck right now), I began my quest to locate and extinguish rear end suspension squeaks. Picked up a can of liquid wrench (Edit: Silicone Spray) and did a quick roll around. Here's what I found: Mouse #1: Most noise. Silicone spray...

Well, Last night I picked up my new Monroe Sensa-Trac shocks, and hit the garage to try and figure everything out. All I have to say is that, at that time, I found out I was missing certain tools that I previously had, and there's precious little space to dismount the top bolts on the rear...

Whew, Found my user account! I've since changed email providers, and had a bit of guessing to do. Anyhow, I don't expect anybody to remember me. I'm usually off getting deployed, so I'm not around much anyways lol. I bought my 04 XLT 4x4 brand new, and finally paid it off in...
