    Some general 8.8 questions

    look for the axle code on inside of drivers door on donor vwhicle, you are missing some numbers, chances are 3.27 open carrier, from the 7 across, at the 8's there should have been a raised dot meaning 8.8, the rest of numbers not sure about.

    does anybody enjoy Nascar

    just like any other sport you have to pick a team, or driver to follow, it can be addicting just like any other sports, nothing better to me than watching 600 horse race cars run around a track at 150 miles per hour, theres also the wipe outs, fist fights, politics and everything else to keep...

    Modulator Valve

    if you are replacing, remove the panel under the carpet near center console area, this is alot easier than trying to squeeze your hands in between the cat, and the tranny, it is held in place with one bolt

    Gas Gauge Problems!

    just went thru this myself, sounds like time to replace the sending unit, or when they replaced pump they did not secure the sending unit wire, may have come off, either way tank has to come back down, it took me all saturday to replace my pump and sending unit, good luck.

    Help! Trying to disconnect upper ball joint

    for othewrs with difficulty seperating ball joints, or tie rods, easiest way is to hit the side of knickle with a 2 to 3 pound hammer, the shock releases the wedge. For half shafts, the inner side with the clip is what holds it in, sometimes a lite tap will get it to go in, other times a little...

    Lift spindles for 1st gen?

    Okay, I'm game, what is the difference? Not to be difficult but to me a spindle is a spindle, it attaches the same way, only difference is control arms as opposed to beams. I wasn't sure about the lift spindles, I know at one time I had seen them, but that was years ago.

    well got pulled over today.

    Heres from my experience in Novato, for the citations your screwed, Marin county is a tough place for that. I actually got pulled over when the cop thought I was driving on suspended license only to find I was being towed, he pulled up behind me with blue lights and all, if you could only see...

    Cooling System Problem

    The 91-94 explorers came with a 9 bladed fan, Fords replacement is a 10 bladed, they know they needed more cooling, also check yours for cracks, I had to replace mine, looked like it was getting ready to come apart. Secondly, if you have not changed the fan clutch, for every year old they loose...

    Lift spindles for 1st gen?

    for the cost, bent beams from somewhere like camburg would be better, look over on the rangerstation, probably easier to get 2 wheel drive help there.
