    Question Blue spring

    Can anyone explain to me why they sell this as a kit with a cover, screws and all? Why not just the spring and a new gasket?:dunno

    Front seat head rest removal?

    Hey Joe, I gotta give credit to dchamberline over at FTE for the solution. I'll post it here for you. This is what the book shows for seats with the seat belt in the seat back. I assume it'd be the same if you have a different type seat though. 1 Pull the head restraint out to end of...

    Front seat head rest removal?

    So, I bought a set of seat covers yesterday and I'm trying to install them this morning. Surprise, surprise!! The head rests won't come out. I tried pushing the little button and pulling up hard, No good. I look for a little clip or some other retaining device. Nothing. I did a Google search...

    Wiring and electrical help.

    Nope. I was wrong. It's to the right of the steering column. I'll have to mess with it some other time. Will anything be harmed if I wait to replace this later, like in a little over a month? We're heading out to go camping in a few days and I'm not sure if I'll have time to work on it before...

    locking hubs

    If you buy the Mile Markers, make sure you install them exactly as the instructions say to. When I put mine back in after replacing the wheel hubs, I put the dial part in wrong. Took the truck out for a test drive and promptly broke the spring.:rant Had to order a new one from Summit. Not...

    Thanks Joe. Will any auto parts store carry one of these electronic blinkers? ETA: Never mind. I searched Autozone and found it. Thanks again.

    Damn! Sounds like I'm going to have to go back to regular tail lights then. I am NOT going to change everything over just for that! Thanks Dave.

    Wiring and electrical help.

    A couple years ago I removed the bed from my truck and replaced it with a wooden one. As this was only supposed to be temporary, I wired in some cheap trailer lights (1157 bulbs). Unfortunately this modification has become permanent. Wanting a better set up, I recently re-wired everything...

    6 spd clutch question?

    I went to a web site (Advance Auto Parts I think but I'm not sure) and it showed pictures of both flywheels. If they are accurate, the dual mass has a series of bolts around the center, slightly outside the holes used to bolt the fw to the crank. Also the locating pins are off set from center...

    6 spd clutch question?

    Ok, I did a little research on what these dual mass flywheels are. I also looked at google images. Some of these things look like regular flywheels.:confused: Guess I'm just going to have to pull it apart and find out. I'll let you know after I pull it. May take me a while as I'll need to buy a...

    6 spd clutch question?

    So... this is the first I've heard about a "dual mass" flywheel. What is it and why is it a bad thing? EDIT: I read on another site that Ford only used the dual mass type on 99 and older trucks with the 5 spd. Newer trucks with the 6 spd came with a standard type flywheel (what ever that...

    6 spd clutch question?

    Looks like I'll be replacing my clutch. Anyone have any experience with New Generation clutches? Amazon has one for $334 but I've never heard of them before.:dunno Amazon.com: New Generation 07-113-SR300 Premium Clutch Kit: Automotive What do you think?
