    Brakes - At Dealer

    So I brought my ST in to the dealer this morning to have a complete brake job front and rears, because the past couple months, the Trac just hasn't been stopping like it use to. I figured it was just time for a brake job. About 45 mins after they took my truck back, a service rep came to me and...

    Changed plugs, now smoke?

    Update: Thanks fellas, after taking it for a spin, all is well. When I pulled back up in my driveway, the Trac smelled like WD40. I popped the hood and could smell it really good. I guess I should have been a little more accurate in spraying the plug threads, but those buggers are really crammed...

    Changed plugs, now smoke?

    Hey guys, Just finished changing my plugs and wires. Truck just turned 100k! Anyhow, now the area around the plugs is smoking. Nothing horrible, but smoking nontheless. Is this from the thread penetrator I used to help get the old plugs to turn? Other than the pain it was removing the...

    Grease in my wheel cap

    I woke up yesterday morning to a flat. After jacking the truck up and removing the wheel cap, I noticed some black greasy residue inside the wheel cap. Just trying to pin-point what this could be. I couldn't see immediately where it was leaking out of the grease cap. Could it be my wheel...

    100k tune up

    I did some searching on Summit and found the SP500 Motorcraft plugs for only 3.95 a piece , waaayy cheaper than the dealership. As for the wires, I'm seeing a plethora of different brands and sizes. I think I remember hearing good things about Taylor and JBA here on the boards. Whats with...

    100k tune up

    Can someone point me in the right direction for getting these parts at a decent price? Any members here run parts stores? Ford here in the FL Panhandle wants $9.70 per plug and $96.00 for the wires. I said no thanks. I'm a little confused on the wires, the parts dept at Ford dealer...

    100k tune up

    Hello all, it's been a long while since I made a post, but I need some help. I just turned 100k on my 2001 Sport Trac and would like to know what all should be done service wise. I just had the trans rebuild by Ford last year, so I'm not planning on doing anything with the trans. I would...

    Plug part#'s

    So I'm looking for some 01 ST plugs Motorcraft brand. Manual says AGSF-22PP, but when I check RockAuto, they have two motorcraft plugs listed, one with no description and one with AGSF22FMF6. These plugs seem pretty cheap at $2.68-3.40/ea. Anyone know if either of these are the actual right part...

    Cross threaded bolt - HELP!

    Todd, Your directions worked. I remember I kept my dremel kit in the small compartment behind my driver rear seat. I just used the dremel to smooth out the bad threads. It was a little diffidult to force the bolt through the backside of the nut. I only had some wrenches to use, but it...

    Cross threaded bolt - HELP!

    bill, I looked at the stuff at the hardware store. I took in the endlink with for fitment purposes. EVERYTHING was either to large to fit through the hole or too small (too much play) Todd, I would, but I have like minimal tools here right now as my whole house has already been...

    Cross threaded bolt - HELP!

    So I'm changing out my rear endlinks again (dont want to explain), and I cross thread the damn bolt. The bolt that is not usable anymore is the bolt that goes through the frame and to the j-nut (the one that has the clip to hold the nut to the frame), attaching the endlink to the frame. I went...

    Looking to buy Wii Fit, I need 4 of them. Any advice?

    Good luck with that for the remainder of the year. I doubt you will find 4 at the price you are asking. Have you tried asking Target when they recieve their electornic shipments? Last year, I fought the crowds for a Wii console and they were always sold out. I talked to the Target store manager...

    New shocks ordered - Rancho RS5000's $190 shipped

    Should have shelled out the extra money for the RSX's. The 5000's are a sub-par shock. I've had both.
