    '99 Brake Hardline Clog (Gump Move)

    Success! It was longer than the inch that I suspected. First puff of air, hit the bucket like a BB gun. Now, to wrangle in that Explorer line. Thanks everyone for the input!

    '99 Brake Hardline Clog (Gump Move)

    Okay, the airgun with the rubber nipple produced some results. I couldn't tell if it was moving or not and kept turning up the air pressure, well past the "recommended maximum pressure." Although it did completely clear the line of the remaining brake fluid. And the rubber nipple blew off...

    '99 Brake Hardline Clog (Gump Move)

    I just came in to ask "Is it okay if I pull the line at the RABS and blow it out from there?" lol I'll report back with the results.

    '99 Brake Hardline Clog (Gump Move)

    Thanks RonD. I can do the compressed air. 85_Ranger, this is the line between the fuel tank and frame. I am in the desert, so we usually don't have rust unless the vehicle is imported from elsewhere.

    '99 Brake Hardline Clog (Gump Move)

    Howdy everyone! While swapping the stock 7.5 axle for an 8.8, I dc'ed the flex line to the Y-fitting by the pumpkin from the hardline that runs along the frame from the front. To stop the dripping, as I've done lots before with no issues, I put in a bamboo skewer (like for grilling) to...

    Torsion Bar Delete?

    Thanks, Uncle! Man, Bossley has quite the build thread there! Looks great. Looks like I have some ponderations to consider.

    Torsion Bar Delete?

    What options are there for getting rid of the torsion bar suspension on the front of my '99 4x4 Ranger? Some years back I bought a coilover conversion kit (basically just the mounts for the coils and shocks). However, those shocks seem to have gone up quite a bit in this economy. After having...

    1999 Ranger missing SO many 4x4 parts? Help UPDATED

    I went through the hassle of replacing the vacuum hubs once. The new ones stopped working after only a few months. After reading through all the pages on the links provided to you by RonD, I opted to go with the later live-axle setup. Not too difficult. Now I have 4 wheel drive when I engage...

    Home depot- ryobi 4ah battery 2 pack + free tool 100$

    I stumbled upon this same package deal last year. The regular price for ONE 4ah battery was $99. Looked around the store for a bit in bewilderment. Well, can't pass this up. The only thing that really sucks the juice out of them IME is the anglegrinder.
