A while back some guy pulled a serious road rage on me and broke out the above-mentioned window in my trusty old B-4000. Since the wife and I are traveling to the US in the next couple of weeks I was hoping someone here might have one they would be willing to part with. As shipping to Panama is...
Been a while since I posted. My 94 B4000 M50D-R1 sometimes slips out of third or fourth but it seems to do it only on long gradual downhills. When it does this it acts like it goes between gears and makes a noise like a zipper. Shifting to neutral does nothing but as soon as you apply...
So about 2:30 in the morning the dog started going nuts out in the yard. Got out of bed and looked...nothing. Almost got back to sleep and she started up again.... and again...nothing. This continued on until about 5 AM and she started going crazy in the front yard. This time when I looked out...
Just ran across this little bit of info. http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/05/30/new-ford-ranger-suv-spotted/
Doubt it will hit USA dealerships though.
So I finally got around to sticking a light bulb on the thing to count the flashes. I am fairly certain the CEL is burned out as it has never come on. If I am reading the codes correctly I am getting a 32 (EGR test fail) then 75 (BOO Brake on off signal shorted to power) and a 22 (MAP or BARO...
So since the doc told me I had to slow down due to some health issues I have been doing the light work on my truck. It never had 4 wheel from the day I bought it. So I am going through the troubleshooting guide from the tech section and have already been through the shift motor. For some reason...
Ran into this guy in the coconut tree outside my garage this morning. I have seen a lot of Toucans but this one was huge. Especially for being in the city. Now let's see if anyone protests the waste of bandwidth over a bird picture.
Coming soon to a dealership near you....

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Well after almost two years IT'S ALIVE....
I put gas in the tank and swiped the battery from my wife's car today and of course met with horrible failure...
Put the key in and pushed the clutch down turned the key and was greeted with a CLICK... Checked connections and all seemed OK so I...
Well looks like I might actually toss a battery in the B4000 and see if she starts tomorrow. I haven been connecting up everything and bleeding the hydraulics and so for so good.
BUT... I have a two conductor female round connector with a red and a black wire that is right behind the cam...
Alright you guys... It is going to be a beautiful weekend. Get out and spend some good quality family time. Don't forget to count the many blessings the good lord has bestowed upon you and your families.
HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!
Well the big day finally has arrived. After I can't remember how many months of tying up all three garage spaces with the B4000 I finally get to set the cab back on the chassis. So since I am sure y'all are tired of hearing me whining about it here it is.
First I had to get the necessary tools...
While sitting back in the garage drinking beer and smoking a cigar I got to day dreaming about what I could do to a 1958 1 1/2 ton Ford that I know of. I was thinking about what kind of diesel engine I could fit in it. First that came to mind of course was the plentiful (for me at least)...
The Ford execs must be reading all of you North American's requests for our South American trucks.
