    Rebuilding my 4.0 SOHC

    So my blown out engine ended up getting rained on. Got my hands on an '04 block and currently building it up with my '99 parts. I've come to this part and I've forgotten where it connects. I know the two clips attach to the underside of the intake plenum, but where does this other end go and how...

    Extra hole on transfer case?

    So now I'm working on my lady's 97 XLT, about to pull and rebuild the transmission. I got the transfer case out last night and noticed there's an extra hole in the front half of the case; drivers side around the corner from the breather hose. This hole is not present on my Limited's transfer...

    Throttle cable loose?

    My throttle has been weak lately so I was prowling around here and found a few things to check (including a rather brilliant zip-tie fix), but when I got under the dash to check cable slack I discovered an entirely new problem. The bracket that the throttle pedal pivots on is spot-welded onto...

    Compass / Temperature Module

    Anyone ever have this happen? Temp / Compass module started cutting out intermittently, then failed altogether. Opened it up thinking I had a bad connection or something simple. Then I found a 51-ohm smd resistor rattling around in the console housing. Sure enough, the board was missing not one...

    Input pinion shaft on rear 8.8 wont budge!

    Hey everyone, me again. I'm in the rear diff of my limited to replace bearings and a bad ring gear. The new ring gear comes with its own pinion and shaft, so I'll have to set the depth and all that biz. The trouble I'm having now is getting the old pinion shaft out. I've got everything else out...

    5R55E likely damage?

    Hi all! Been around for a while, finally had a question I haven't seen answered by previous threads... So I'm swapping in a replacement 4.0 sohc, and it's not going on the transmission fully. My dumb ass is thinking the transmission slid back and it's just too heavy to move back up with the...

    Vibration Dampeners?

    What the heck are these things? They're on the transfer case and rear axle on my '97 XLT, which rolls quietly, but not on my '99 Limited (4wd) which howls at speed. They're also not on my '98 Sport, but it's a 2wd. The guy I bought the Limited from replaced bearings and the transfer case trying...

    Crank Bolt pattern, 6/8?

    Does anyone know when Ford made the transition between 6 bolt and 8 bolt on the crank output of the 4 liter V6 overhead valve engine? Did they go from 6 to 8, or 8 to 6? I recently replaced my engine and had a devil of a time finding one with the eight bolt pattern I needed to bolt up to my...
