    Explorer 8.8 Fluid Capacity

    Yo, Working on the explorer 8.8 swap in my truck the other night and was wondering if anyone knew the stock fluid capacity? So far we have put in a gallon and it is not coming out the hole.

    79 E-350 power steering

    Yo, I got a 79 E-350 box truck with the 460, and the power steering v-belt squeals badly. After about a minute, the belt is too hot to touch. The belt is tight (about 1/2" deflection). I just replaced both the power steering pump, and the gearbox, bled the system acording to the instructions...

    Weird Transmission (I think) Sound

    Yo, On my 94', 2.3l, 5spd, whenever I am coasting down in gear, there is what i call a "whirring" sound. If I take it out of gear, the noise goes away. But I don't think it is the engine, the noise doesn't sound like it is that far forward. If i give it a little gas so my RPMs are matching the...

    1999 F-550 clutch problem

    Yo, I've got a 1999 F-550 with the 7.3l, and when ever i push the clutch in, the first half of the stroke feels fine, but then it just gives way to the floor. Not like a spongy push to the floor, but a fall without resistance to the floor. I was leaning towards the master cylinder but wanted to...

    Rear shock mounting

    Yo, When I searched for rear shock locations, all I came up with had to do with hoops and holes in the bed. My rear end is going to have an explorer 8.8 with the chevy spring swap, 2" shackles, and no body lift. What would be the best way to mount them without cutting into the bed to maximize...

    jeep xj front dana 30 swap?

    Yo, There is deffinatley something to be said for doing it right the first time. If you have an end goal in mind, then go for it. But you don't want to dump a bunch of money into something that you are gonna replace in a few months anyway.
