    Question Clutch Pedal issue

    I have a 2000 7.3 liter. the other day my clutch pedal went to the floor, the cause was a broken retainer clip that holds the push rod to the pedal arm. I replaced the clip and the clutch went back up but now the pedal is a good 6" higher than it used to be. It is clearly looser at the top...

    Question 2000 7.3 fuel system issue

    I have a 2000 7.3 liter and it was not starting. I changed the fuel filter (of course I had to depressurize the fuel system when I did this) and the truck started right up. I drove it, shut it off and it wouldnt start again. I popped the hood, depressurized the fuel system and it fired right...

    Parking brake adjustment???

    i finally got it. After I dismantled the entire passenger side drum and removed the drum pads (putting them back on was fun with all the springs and clips) I found what was obviously the star wheel for adjustment. I left the pads on the drivers side and removed the drum to adjust this side...

    Parking brake adjustment???

    OK, I took the wheel off and found that that when I engage the parking brake, I could not turn the rotor by hand, so it is still working to some extnet, then took the rotor off. (I had no idea that there was a pad under there). After 260,000 miles the pad is completely gone. I still cant find...

    Parking brake adjustment???

    I have a 2000 F350 4x4 with a manual transmission. My parking brake goes to the floor with no effort and does not hold the truck even on a slight incline. I have looked all along the e-brake cable and found no point of adjustment. I pulled the right rear wheel off and still do not see any...

    Question AC Blower issue (I think)

    Stroked 68, the only resistor I was able to find on my 2000 was directly behind the round AC blower knob. You have to remove a good portion of the dash to get to it but if you pull the knob off you will have a silver shaft sticking out of the dash. That shaft is part of the resistor box. It...

    Cab lights installed!

    Yes sir it did. I was looking at the right connector I just ended up with the wrong harness end. buuuuut its all fixed up now. I thought to myself, WWOMD, what would my old man do? I thought back to when I was a 16 year old kid trying to keep my Mustang running and thought, how would my Dad...

    Cab lights installed!

    I checked at Discount Auto and he said I would have to go to Ford for the connector (I will check Auto Zone tomorrow) I also contacted the guy who sold me the lights and harness. He is telling me that I am looking at the wrong connector under the glove compartment. I have removed the...

    Cab lights installed!

    Got the lights installed, no problem. The factory wiring harness worked perfectly. The retaining clips were exactly lined up with the holes in the factory roof supports. I used a graduated bit (as you guys reccomended) for the 7/8" hole in the center and a 1/4" bit for the two screws. Everything...

    Cab lights installed!

    Reference the question on the wiring harness. I got my lights on Ebay for $109. I made sure I got the OEM lights from Ford and I made sure that it came with the harness. The lights have a receiver on the bottom of them and you need the factory harness to click into place. I have my blue tape...

    Cab lights installed!

    Cab lights installed!

    I just got my cab lights delivered. I was going to use a knock out tool for the roof holes but this cost $135 at the local Lowes. I thought about just drilling, did this work ok for you and how big did you make the holes for the wiring?

    shifter knob

    I finally got it off but cutting it off. I admit that, after getting the knob off, I found that the "just pull it method" wouldve worked if some jabrone hadnt permanently attached the knob to the stick with epoxy... Thanks for all the input guys.

    Question AC Blower issue (I think)

    Sounds good fellas. I had replaced the blower motor this weekend (wasnt expensive and like Big Joe says, its easy to replace) this did nothing though, so I ordered a blower motor resistor for it. I havent put this on yet, but I will check out the evaporator coils and try the backwards shop vac...

    shifter knob

    Yes sir, I twisted the 4x4 knob and it came off with a little effort. Then I really twisted the shifter knob and the rubber grip loosened and will spin (its still very snug, but I can spin it) but the cap piece that shows the shifting pattern stays put and does not move??? The stick holds to...

    shifter knob

    I wanted to report on the "just pull real hard" method of getting the shifter knob off. DONT DO IT! I got the 4x4 shifter knob off like this but when I went to pull off the 5 speed shifter knob, I pulled and pulled and got nothing, so I reeeally pulled and the knob remained but the entire...

    shifter knob

    Is this the same for the 4x4 shifter? I am leaving my 5 speed knob, but wanted to change my 4x4 shifter to a skull. Also, the one I was looking at simply comes with a rubber gromet inside of it, will this work at all or is it simply going to feel sloppy?
