    Replacing tie rod requires new rack?

    Hello. I'm an idiot when it comes to vehicle repairs. I have a mechanic I trust for the most part and he told me that my "front left inner tie rod" is loose/broken/whatever and that it is due to a "hole in the boot". He said he would replace the boot and tie rod but his schedule is just too busy...

    Snow Snow Go Away

    I've always loved winter, and I still do. But I must say, as much as I wish we had more snow, I also wish the dirty, gloomy winter weather we have right now would move out and make way for spring. The Trac is filthy and I haven't seen it washed and waxed and sparkling since fall. :(

    Ever had your brake pad seperate?

    2004 ST with 26k miles on it here. A couple weeks ago we started hearing a horrible squeeling when applying the brakes. Took it to the Ford Dealership, they checked the brakes and said they looked like brand new, very little wear at all. Said it was just a dry spot or something on the pads, not...

    Two things I wish were different

    1. I wish the doors all auto-unlocked when you put it in park or pull the driver door handle, just like they lock when you put it in drive. Owned the Trac for 6 months now, and every day I "still" pull into a parking space, park, get out, go to open the backseat door and it's locked. Always...

    Bad shocks and cupping tires

    Bought our 04 ST with 14k on it. Rotated the tires at 15k and 22k. This last rotate the guy at the Fod dealership pointed out some uneven wear on the inside of the [now] front passenger side tire. He attributed it to "the previous owner didn't rotate the tires from 1-14k miles". Being a vehicle...

    Hair on speedometer

    Okay, over on the left side of the dash (04' ST) by the gas gauge, a little hair is on the gauge. Probably a dog hair from our Sheltie. Annoying. What do I need to do to get the plastic window in front of the gauges out of the way to get to that hair?

    Flat spot on tire

    2004 Trac with 22k miles, bought it at 14k, rotated the tires at 15k and now again at 22k. This time the dealership service guy showed me a flat spot on what is now the front right passenger side tire. He speculates that the tires were never rotated in the first 14k miles before I got it, which...

    Tinted Corners and Lights?

    Are there any corners and headlights that have a bit of a tint to them? I saw a black truck today that had semi dark headlights, taillights and corners and it looked really sharp. Something like that exist for the ST? A forum search for "Tinted Corners" didnt get me much... P.S. Are they...

    Canadians bad at math?

    lol, I had to tell this to someone, and the Sport Trac board is the only one I really post on so here it goes. Burger King is running a promotion where every Large or King Size meal you purchase you get an Amazon card that has a scratch off number on the back. You put the number into a...
