    V6 vs. V8 ?

    Thanks for the great info blksn8k. But as far as the V8, does everyone go to the Ford dealer to get the tranny reprogrammed ? What shifting issues need correcting ? And my Gen 1 radiator has over 242,000 miles on it. What are the problems with the Gen 2 rads ?

    Rear bed window cable pulley

    So you're saying it isn't meant to be restrung ? Doesn't look like much access to be able to unattach and reattach the other ends of the cables if I were to replace it as a unit.

    Rear bed window cable pulley

    Anyone familiar with how to restring the cable onto the pulley for the rear window motor ? The pulley was stuck on the motor gear during removal and the cable popped off. I'm just worried that there has to be a different amount of cable to raise and lower it. In other words ,you can't just...
