    100K Club

    Just hit the 100K mile mark this past weekend. I have not had any problems with this truck. Only items replaced are the ones that normally wear out; e.g., brake pads, filters, plugs, tires, etc. My Trac was in the shop one time for a warranty issue way back when. This vehicle is the most...

    Shock Life

    Got a question. Have had Rancho RSX shocks for about 95,000 miles. Seems to me like the ride is now about what it was with the factory shocks. Rancho shocks are supposed to last forever, so they say. Question: is it just my imagination or do the lifetime shocks really wear out. Tempted to...

    Engine Swap? Ford 302 - AOD

    Been a while since I've checked in here. My 04 has about 92K miles on it and is still running like it was new. Been working on another project. Just about got the Ford 302 and AOD tranny ready for the 27T Roadster I'll start building next spring. [Broken External Image]:

    Gas Prices

    Prices in St. Louis at $1.399 and lower. Don't think Ive ever been able to fill my '04 for less than $30 since I bought it in Feb, 2004.

    Sport Trac Slide-in Camper

    Just want to check to see if there is any interest in plans for a slide-in camper designed to fit the 2001-2005 Sport Tracs. I haven't built this yet but plan to do a mockup in the next few weeks. Have done weight and balance on the design shown. About 900 Lbs loaded weight that includes...

    Long Road Trip

    Just got back from a long road trip. St. Louis to Key West and back with stops in Daytona for the races and some beach time in Cocoa Beach. 3180 miles. 160 gallons of gas. 19.875 MPG with as much 75 mph driving as possible. Was a long ride but pretty comfortable. The Trac is great for long trips...

    Global Warming Update..New Data

    This is not what Al Gore and company want you to read and it's likely that you'll never see it published in main stream media.

    Fortera TripleTred

    Getting Goodyear Fortera TripleTreds today. Michelin Cross Terrains [OEM] were very good but was time to replace them at about 63,000 miles. On tire Rack site, Fortera TT's are rated number one so guess I'll see how they do on the Trac. Also had wheel bearings cleaned and packed as well as front...

    New front brakes today

    My '04 Trac has 60,900 miles on it so figured it was about time to change front brakes before they wore down to point of damaging rotors. Now these Ford brakes are, by far, the easiest disc brakes I've ever changed. Took a lot longer jacking and rotating tires than it did to change the pads...

    Front end Link Question

    Some questions. Please describe in a technical manner what benefits can be had by replacing stock end links with Energy Suspension links. Is it OK to use stock bolt/nut/spacer? Should the sway bar bushing also be replaced with the Energy Suspension bushing? I'm guessing that Moog components are...
