fixed the shift rails plugs and flushed and changed the fluid in the transmission and transfer case

 

cleaned it....smooth as glass

 

Got my Upper ball joints replaced and outer tie rods replaced. Thanks for the help Israel(03edge)

 

Well starting tomorrow morning she gets torn apart to go back to stock mostly :( Taking the 4/5 drop off and going to a 2/3, taking the grilles, clear headlights and corners off too. It's all for a good cause though

 

and what cause would that be?

i scraped the ice off my windsheild after work :(

 

Checked mpg averaged 21 for the month last month. Towing the boat Sunday I was horrified by 11 mpg. Almost time for a bigger truck. Good thing I don't tow often.

 

Started pulling the fabric off my headliner. Work in progress.

 

Changed the fuel filter. That was "fun", glad I don't have to do that often. Quick disconnect, my backside. It was a little harder to blow through than the new one.

Sometime this and next week: Oil change, maybe change hoses, cooling flush, new coolant. Check the spindle nuts, it is wobbling again. Find out why the intermittent P0303 code. Under hood wash. Got a rental compression tester at Autozone. Please Lord, not a head gasket.

 

Escape, I'd love to hear how that goes. I have been considering putting in a new headliner, maybe Mossy Oak camo. What are you putting in?

 

Installed my new leather wraped steering wheel I got at the salvage yard from an 01 Explorer sport. Damn these are hard to find in great shape!!

 

Nothing, I had to go to Charleston to work today.

 

I have no clue what I am going to put in. I am going to hit up the hobby shop tomorrow or an auto interior shop and go from there.

 

Also try Joanne Fabrics or a fabric place like that. They might have something interesting. Neon orange fleece, Tartan plaid, red satin, lol.

Keep us posted then post pics. If you want plain Jane then Pep Boys and Autozone have headliner replacement cloth.

Oh, i just changed the oil, flushed the radiator, and changed the PCV valve all in the dark. Hope I got it right.

 

detailed and washed it. looks so damn purdy and blue :D

 

Blue!!

 

Blue FTMFW!!!

 

picked my truck up from the shop, cam sensor and syncro went out but it runs like a top now and i get to take my own truck to my wedding this weekend :)

 

nothing yet but thinking about degreasing the engine and pulling the bedliner out and washing underneath... too bad the sun is only halfass shining and its 5* degr outside...

 

Blacked out my clear corners and they got a little to warm and warped a little, so it was a b!tch screwing them back in... Painted a ranger side badge black and put it on the tailgate.. Changing all fluids tomorrow..

 

left it sitting at home:)

 

now its somewhat sunny outside and 11 degrees so now we grab a beer and go outside. haha

 

went to jack in the box

 

as we all know, the ranger/f-150 badges always lose the black inside, anyone black out the outside and keep the letters chrome?

 

oh, and i went to the junk yard, to find an early 2000's ranger to gank the front tow hooks off of it...

no dice :(

 

bought a 5.0 for it
