    It finally broke!

    Green light caps...I bet that looks wicked on your truck.. I went back out there yesterday and took a pair of needle-nose pliers...quarter turn to the left and it pops right out..quarter turn to the right and it slips back in.. I'm still considering taking the double-cuts and making...

    It finally broke!

    The truck fairy must have been on break when mine rolled down the assembly line.. At 130K...all of the squeakable parts under the front end had to be replaced.. then came the clock-spring...(I have the new clock-spring sitting here on the desk..been there for months..havent slowed down...

    balljoints or end links?

    Logically speaking...all of the wear and tear on the front end didnt just concentrate on the driver's side upper ball joint...it was shared by every part under the front end.. I wouldnt stop with the ball joints...I'd eventually replace everything under there over a period of time...Why...

    balljoints or end links?

    You may wanna check those tie-rod ends while you are under there.. Mine were wore out..and one of the main reasons mine squeaked while turning the steering wheel.. I had everything replaced...there is nothing more aggrivating than tracking down a squeak...

    Strange Smoking.

    That's the first thing that came to mind when I read this.. I had a Ford Ranger that did the exact same thing..the water was getting into the exhaust port.. It would do it a time a two..smoke like crazy..then for no reason just go back to running fine..then a day or two later..it would...

    The Gathering Storm

    Same sex marriage has no impact at all on my life... I believe everyone should treat life like you would your Sport Trac...make it your own...add to it what you will...just dont expect everyone to like it or even understand it... I do think alot of groups "campaign" a little too much...

    U.S. Census Bureau

    U.S. Census Bureau

    From what I was told..it is a plastic ID badge on a rope around their necks...no picture but I think they said the person's name was on the badge..along with Dept. Of Commerce and Census Bureau.. According to these people they were asking plenty of questions and writing stuff down...but...

    Why I Carry a Gun

    If you go around handing your loaded weapon to a stranger..merely because he asks about the kind of weapon you carry...and you consider that normal behavior.. Then I cant really say anything that is going to help you..:D

    Why I Carry a Gun

    Why I Carry a Gun

    I dont have a dog in this fight...just an opinion.. stray bullet death..let's say it is one in a million.. When it is you standing over your loved one..statistics suddenly seem meaningless.. My opinion is based on my region..what I see on a daily basis..not on everyone's region...

    Why I Carry a Gun

    For what it's worth Bill... I have agree with you.. Far too many trigger happy inexperienced carriers out there.. Something about a stray bullet taking out one of my loved ones ..doesnt sit too well with me..
