[QUOTE="Igor Smetaniuk, post: 1018728, member: 69592"] @Yardsale Thanks! I hope jeffksf gets to see this before the weekend. Had I to do it again, I would have bought new bolts from Ford before starting this project to have as a backup. I had the motor changed out years ago and when I got the first bolt out before having to break apart the T-Stat Housing, I noticed it was much newer looking than the two frozen ones. Bet that broke off on the Ford mechanic :grin: when he was changing over all of the stuff onto my remanufactured motor. Yeah, metal sleeves and bolts are never a good match. Learned that from my recent experience of changing the spring shackles - a bitch indeed. The $55.00 ball joint press kit investment was priceless! [/QUOTE]
