    Anyone having issues with Fedex lately?

    What do you mean "lately"? I have always had problems with FedEx. :p

    2.5L ('98-'01) Oil pressure sensor in Mazda B2500

    It is on the left side of the head near the back.

    Reverse Lights not working

    Cut the ground wires for the bulbs at the back of the truck. Clean a spot on the frame and bolt the wire from the bulb to the frame. I have seen this fix so many taillights and reverse lights over the years on older vehicles.

    2.5L ('98-'01) 2001 2.5 L head replacement

    I would assume they are asking for shank size. That is what is on the labels when you buy a bolt from a hardware store.

    Wow. All that work done to it and it is a plain Jane 4ycl.

    Noisy crank pulley (harmonic pulley)

    Or take take it off and inspect the rubber. If the rubber is not cracked, and there is no vibration then it probably is not the harmonic balancer causing the issue.

    Noisy crank pulley (harmonic pulley)

    I have never had a 4.0 but every motor I have owned has a rubber lining inside that can rot away and cause noise before failure. If you know for a fact that it is the harmonic balancer making the noise I would plan on replacing it sooner rather than later.

    Tire size

    I put 8" wide rims and 255/60R15's on my '93 2.3L that came with 225/70R14's. I also swapped out the 3.45 gears for 3.73's. I love 'em, grips the road like nobody's business. Took a pretty good hit to MPG's, though.

    In the same sentence: "Very reasonable condition..." and "...side step bar has rotted off ".

    If your ride is rough it is not worn shocks.

    Custom made or upgraded steering column!!!

    I can't believe no one suggested car-part.com . I searched for a column in my area and found a whole list.

    2011 Ranger 2WD 4 Cylinder Lift Kit

    - Nevermind. I thought I saw the solution but was wrong.

    Rear main seal

    The next culprits would be intake or valve covers.

    2000 Ford Ranger XLT

    I would be wary. All the pictures have filters applied and weird distortions like he is trying to hide something.
