Alright, so i checked the stabalizer bar. And it was solid. No movement in it. Then i jacked up the front end, and tried shaking the wheel. There was no play in it either. Also, i haven't noticed the popping noise lately. Its just been riding really rough, and i can feel every little...

Yea, i'll check the stabalizer bar then jack it up and check if its the wheel bearing. I read somewhere on here earlier that it can still be the wheel bearing and not shake. But first things first. Its spring break for me so i have plenty of time. Thanks for the help guys and enjoy your weekend!!

Alright... thanks Carguy!!! Just to clear some stuff up... The noise doesn't happen while accelerating or decelerating. Though when i'm driving at a low rate of speed in a straight line, or turning i do feel a little bit of bumping under my feet. I think the vertical camber(if thats what you...

Bad CV joint or bad shock? Hey guys, i have a question concerning a noise i had while driving. My X has 113,000 miles on it now with original parts. The noise is coming from front driver side wheel. Anyway, the noise is a bumping one i heard while driving about 20 mph. As i pulled into a...

Thanks for the advice.

Need a body lift? Alright, so i have an explorer just like TRJ360's. I saw where he mounted his tow hooks on the front and went out to look at mine. I noticed my frame about 3 inches or so above the opening on the bumper. Do TRJ360's tow hooks attach to the frame? If so, would i be able to...

Opps, they dont make BAT cats... haha,... i meant Back!

Better late then Never I had to voice my opinion on sized pipes and muffler!:D Currently im running duel inlet 2.25 inch pipes(no bat cats), with single 2.5 inch out leading to a 3.5 inch 45 degree angle tip behind the wheel. The muffler is an 18inch straight through(reversible) design...

Great job man!:thumbsup: This will surely help anyone who is new to the forum get started! On a budget too!

Well First, i was upset when i first posted that... not really anymore now. Second, no one told me i could only bump every 24 hours, it doesn't say that anywhere. Now i know. Third, I posted last night and when i got on this morning i noticed the thread had dropped about 13 positions so i just...

Redhot overheated Ok... this is the story. My battery was dying in my Ex. So i left my Ex at the house and drove my sisters car to walmart for some groceries. When i came back home i noticed my dad was outside with my hood popped. I pull up next to him and see he has changed out my battery(he...

I didnt disconnect the battery. I was actually going outside to do that but decided to get back online and see if any one responded. Thanks for the help guys! :)

Another thing i noticed, when i started my car without the Air sensor attached my Check Engine light came on. Then when i put the intake and everything back together it didnt go away. That bugs me. Is something wrong with the TB now?

Ah alright. I just sprayed about 1/2 can in the TB and the other half went in the gas tank. I didn't get much smoke, but it really felt like it cleaned some stuff up. By that i mean, it felt like i was accelerating faster, pulling harder.

Tb? Would it hurt anything to get a spray bottle and spray 1/2 the can of Seafoam through the TB? Then the other half in the gas tank? Wouldn't this have the same effect as the PCV valve?

What kind of chips are available for a 5.0? What are the prices?

Luckily for me it is, about 2/3 of the way i have to drive everyday is in a 50mph speed limit zone. And i normally drive about 5 over anyway.

I was just wondering what others thought. I normally get close to the best around 65. I guess my true question is to find out about what speeds others get the best mileage. Al, i've seen some of your numbers. But what of others?

OK, well my mods are all listed below. And as of right now i have a stock pcm.

What would be the perfect cruising speed on the highway for optimal gas mileage? With stock 3:73 gears. Is it somewhere between 65-72 Mph?

Well thats good, all of those things will slightly increase the mpg of your truck. Another way of doing a cold air intake, (if you have the time and tools). Would be to cut a hole in your fendor, get a pipe that is long enough to extend your filter into your fendor and use foam(or something) to...

first things first very nice truck, i love black only if you had black leather and black tint it would be right up my alley. But yes like you said its something similar and i thought about keeping my intake right where yours is and doing the custom air feed like yours so al if you look at his...

Im working on something like this, i mainly just have to enclose the air filter now with the funnel going into it. You can see pics on my cardomain page.
