OK Forum, do your magic. My friend Jess is a finalist on a reality show and they are taking votes to determine the winner.... Thanks in advance, I know how dangerous this forum can be... Just click on the "Vote" button by the green arrow!!! Here is the link...

Well, I will know the fate of my '06 F250 today as they are doing a compression check on the engine, but I've got a bad feeling there is a bad rod or bearing deep in the engine. The damn thing only has 94,000 on it, partially my fault for some of the mishaps, but a lot to blame on Ford, more...

Got to clean out some stuff. 1) pair of rusty old set of 4" lift ttb coil springs. Not sure the brand but I'll take $20 + shipping. 20 lbs shipped weight from 54650. 2) pair of 6" skyjacker TTB coil springs. good shape, red in color, retail for about $165. I'll take $60 + shipping...

As most of ya'll know, I moved away from Scottsdale 2 years ago. I still own that house down there. I did a ton of remodel on that house. Top to bottom. Here is a thread about the kitchen & tiles. http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=225766...

Well, besides not being free much because of work, I did manage to take advantage of living 12 blocks from the Mississippi River again. Wife & I picked up a 2005 210 Nautique. One of the best wakeboard boats in it's era, and honestly, all the flash and cash required for the new ones, I...

Thought I'd check in with my people and see if anyone that owes me a favor (I hope there is one or two of you) might be going through Blythe in the next couple days. I found a set of AMP research steps in Blythe that I need picked up and shipped, I'll make it worth your time, the guy won't ship...

I've seen this community rally for causes like this before, I want you guys to give me a hand, I know we can make sure Audra & Linda win this. Short story long, a neighbor girl here is 15 and has a terminal non-operable brain tumor, she's got the best attitude about this and nominated her Mom...

Looking at an '08 Altima. Wanting a vehicle that will get some good fuel economy, they show a v6 and a 4 cylinder and I'm thinking about the 4-popper. It's the best mileage (24 city, 31 hwy) on a vehicle that doesn't look way too small, the new Altima isn't much smaller than the Maxima and...

I would own this already if I wasn't moving! It's a twin to my old one. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/cto/1506272698.html

Well gang, got some big news to share. Come January 15 Allison and I will be heading up to Wisconsin...for good! For those who don't know, next summer I'm marrying a girl I've known for 17 years. We had always been good friends but never started dating until about 3 years ago. We did the...

Instead of renting a uhaul trip for an upcoming travel I decided why not spend the same amount of money for a tow bar to put on the front of my fiance's Xterra. I can't really think of a good reason other than owning equipment vs. renting (well, if I wanted to get drunk at the bar I could make...

I haven't seen a solid disc brake upgrade writeup for a Ford 9" axle so I documented what was pretty much a hunt for me to do this rebuild. My rear axle fortunately has 5x4.5 shafts however has a full aftermarket disc brake conversion. I have almost all the part numbers if someone would want...

Figured this belongs here as it's a "other electronic gadget" My 50" Philips plasma TV has a bad board, was quoted $500-600 for repair. I can purchase a new Samsung PN50B450B1DXZA for $750 through a disributor account I have access to. So upon looking around online I find a lot of...

Searching google has some good ideas but I thought I'd share I project I took on to see if any of the pro's have any suggestions. My boss asked me to replicate this sample fence in a 11 foot section for his balcony on his house. It's 1" on the horizontal, 1/2" vertical (about 3 feet...

So I'm heading to the Cardinals game tonight and wanted to catch the hilights from another game while we were tailgating. This got me thinking, I ran a A/V cord out from my Alpine IVA-200 to be used as an aux input to view videos, digital pics or any other input. Local tuners from Alpine...

This is time consuming and back breaking but now that I'm on the final stage, I'm glad to have saved the money and learned how to do it myself. I had a friend with some experience give me a hand instead of paying a professional. I bought my house when I was 24, immediately tore out some...

Got a friend in town who rented a 4 door Jeep JK. Pretty standard equipment, open diffs, 225 Goodyear tires. I pulled the airbag fuse and took it wheeling...with a video cam. Any speculation on how it did?

I can't believe this was published. I'd wrap my towstrap through your window before clamping onto this death trap. http://www.moabjeeper.com/articles/general/listing.cfm?articleID=468

I'm in need of some brackets. Anybody recognize these or know of a good place to find something similar? I don't need those goofy horn things on the top, so I could likely just have a machine shop cut out a couple pieces but maybe they are stock bracket from some oddball vehicle.

My 18' Carson trailer was bought new in 2004 and we've been to hell and back. Probably close to 30,000 miles on this thing. Anyway, I haven't done anything with the bunks or floorboards this entire time. I am looking at it thinking I should seal them and after looking around online I saw...

Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. We had a trip planned to San Diego for a wedding shower, Allison got a little teary eyed heading on the 5 overlooking the ocean, I had a ring in my pocket knowing this is a happy place for her. A couple hours later we had lunch, head down on the...

I need these two parts. I call them a c-clip and a splined washer I hate to say it, but I don't know what they're called, where to get them or a Ford part number. I've gone to a few FORD parts counters to try to buy them and the guy basically has told me that he needs the model number on...
