    M5OD internal parts, help me find them?

    Here is the dealio, I am rebuilding a friends transmission after he blew out second gear. Pulled it out today to take a peak inside, and all i see that really needs replacing is 2nd gear (He will be swapping to a C4 later this year, so it doesn't need to last forever). I called the dealer to...

    You had me worried for a second there. I thought you were replacing the valve cover gaskets for an oil leak. Also, with that said, you dont have to replace those gaskets unless they catch fire/melt. There is a TSB out to use retainer clips, just a little FYI. Dont get me wrong, I would...

    The last truck I owned was a 2002 Ford F150, extra-cab 2x4. 5.4L triton with the 5r70w transmission. Like I stated, they will tow just fine, but he should not be expecting to get there fast. The point you make about OD is EXTREMELY important and true. I should have deleted that part from the...

    A diesel would be the best bet, but you need to have the funds to repair it and the parts are more expensive (powerstrokes). Also, keep in mind: all 98+ diesel trucks are now going to be smogged, so if you find one that you like and has any mods done to the engine, it could be a very expensive...

    it will tow you just fine, just don't expect to go 70 up a grade. My old one towed my buddy's x-cab ranger on a 4k lbs trailer with all camping gear/tools/riding gear/stuff needed for the trip, dirt bike and 3 full size guys. lowest speed up the grade (8 east from san diego to the desert) was...

    alright, with all the time that you spend wiring the aftermarket dash with switches/gauges/lights etc. you can reuse the stock dash for 1/4 of the price and half the time. 1. Go down to the local auto store and buy the big fiberglass repair kit, a few hose clamps and a sharpie. 2. mock up...

    keepin the stock dash in that beezy? I can tell you right now, get the tubes as tight as you can to the bulkhead... edit: if you want 360 welds, cut the roof off.

    Ranger 4 wheel ABS module

    I have a 96 ranger that i am currently caging it front to rear. I decided to pull the ABS module (4 wheel ABS) to make room for my coilovers and i will be re-plumbing the front brakes anyway. I spent countless hours in the Ford repair manuals and EVTM's, but cannot find the info i need. On the...
