    Improvised seat slider release handle?

    Dropped the Escort GT seats that I've had in storage for almost a year into the B4000, but the seats don't have the hardware to connect the tilt lever on the seat to hook to the upper track's release lever so people can more easily get in the back. Thankfully it's not all jammed up and can be...

    I'm back in the RBV game!

    After all the turmoil of trying to obtain obtain a reliable vehicle for about a year after what happened to my first Ranger (some of you may remember that fiasco, last friday I aquired a '94 Mazda B4000. It's pretty solid and well equiped from the factory. Already dropped in the Escort GT...

    Engine flushing?

    I know that flushing oil is just lightweight oil, but I need to clean some bad deposits out of the Vic's engine, (as enplained in a previous thread) it's got a grit like buildup that I'm pretty sure got knocked look and distributed after it was put in as it had been sitting a while. One friend...

    I need some advice guys.

    Long version in short form: Unfortunate things happened, I no longer had my Ranger. My uncle gave me an '84 Mazda, more unfortunate things happened. I then aquired my Vic and sold the Mazda. I bought an engine, had it installed, now more unfortunate things. Details on the recent unfortunate...

    '91 LTD Crown Vic throttle position sensor issue

    Well, engine got installed and the engine runs fine, but the tps is actin up and it wants to die when you go to put it in drive (it idles fine). I doubt it's the sensor itself, because they tried 3 sensors on it and it did the same hing, so unless all 3 were bad, the only other thing I can think...

    Where can I find these?

    Basic steel rim, always in black. I know they aren't rare, but I can't seem to find them anywhere online and I have no clue where I could get them from in the right size/bolt pattern. I can't find the picture I had taken of a pair of 6-lug ones I had, but heres a Buick wearing some (sorry for...

    Air Suspension Q's

    Obviously it varies, but about how many hours does it take to install the whole system? I probably wouldn't attempt to do the instal myself, so a ballparked estimate on labor costs would be good too.

    Air Suspension Q's

    Thanks guys. I should point out that this question is in reference to my Vice. I'd like to lower a truck but not bag it. My main concern was the ride quality. I've been racking my brain on whether to focus on total performance or make it a cruiser, but if I can still have great handling on bags...

    Uniden PRO510XL

    I've been tossing around the idea of getting a CB for a while, and after looking it seems the Uniden PRO510XL is a good unit for a good price and the reviews I've seen were favorable. Anyone have experience with this model? Also, I know nothing about choosing an antenna, so suggestions on that...

    DIY Engine Stand?

    I've got a hook on an engine for my Vic, but I've got nothing to set it on while I prep for the install and remove whats left of the engine that's still in it. I don't have anything to set it on tho, and I have been making calls and it doesn't seem I know anyone whom I could borrow one from. Are...

    Air Suspension Q's

    1. What's the average cost for a mild setup for 4 wheel controllable air ride suspension? 2. I've heard pretty consistantly that your ride quality and handling suffers a good bit when going to an air ride system. How accurate is this, and is so are there systems which offer the function but...

    Factory Stereo Removal Issue

    I'm tryin to remove the factory stereo in my Vic, I picked up some removal tools and the left side is coming out but the right tool just slides out, and I can feel when it sets into where it should be yet it just comes out when I pull. Do the removal tools work on the same principles as key...

    Gimme some suggestions

    I'm making a parts list for my Vic so I can look up prices and know what I'm gonna need to save up and budget to get stuff. I'm most asking about sound, but if you want to suggest a good set of headers (that are affordable) for the 5.0, go ahead. I'm most inquiring about sound and pipe sizing (I...

    Wierd Issue with AOD

    Yesterday I aquired my newest love, my LTD Crown Vic, I have pretty much diagnosed the engine issue, but the trans did something I've never encounter before eprsonally. When in overdrive, past 45/50 MPH, when OD should kick in, it felt as if the engine magically disconnected itself from...

    Three ?'s about GT40 heads

    Not a swap question, but this seems the most fitting forum. 1. What is the average cost for a set, and how good are they for value-for-money? 2. If switching from stock iron heads, do I need to change anything else for everything to work properly? 3. Did they come stock on anything available...

    HELP!!!!!! PLEASE Lowering problems ...

    Basicly sounds like they half assed it to hell. Iirc, you need shorter shocks front and rear (and bump stops i think), the lowering kit, a camber kit, and I believe the lowering kit comes with a spacer for the driveshaft bearing. All these things must be utilized or you'll have problems. I've no...

    So, I wrote a song.

    Theres really no "fitting" section for this but here she goes. I got a bit bored alst night and completely rewrote Charlie Daniel's The Devil Went Down To Georgia to be all about zombies. In my head it started as a joke but it seems to have turned out much better than a joke. It mentioned guns...

    BS facts people will tell you about their used vehicle for sale.

    So, today me and my friend were driving around and we pulled in a run-down excuse for a strip-mall in town, and we spy what I knew was a Crown Vic Interceptor with a for sale sign in the window. We get out to check it out, and it's clean as hell, the price listed was fair, and it drove great...
