    steering/suspension issue

    Just because I had to go the worse case first fixed route due to money and eventually did it right and replaced any suspension part with a rubber bushing anything less than new and everything collectively makes it squirrelly just in a unique way. For instance, the upper control arms made it feel...

    Newer Vehicles ARE Monitoring Your EVERY Move

    Alright, so this is a subject that is near the center of my daily studies and research I do on our current situation. By "our" I mean all of humanity and just like someone just said there is only two classes in our world and they might be loosely thrown around right now but too many people are...

    Most miles on a gen 1 v8

    Hey guys. I was curious to see what’s the most original miles anyone has seen or had on their gen 1 v8 ls. I have a 2001 v8 and I am a few clicks from the 270,000 mark. That’s more than I’ve ever heard of and, knock on wood, my baby is still running very strong. It’s got its issues and I cant...

    The correct tool to remove front wheel bearing & hub assembly?

    Man you guys are lucky. I literally had to give it all that I had while laying on my side with a 5 pound mini sledge and it took at least 10- 5 minute rounds. And the first 9 it whooped me.

    LED Headlights?

    You might be right. I might have them backwards. Also another difference on the sylvania ultrastar at least, the lowbeams have the top painted.

    LED Headlights?

    I bought these on Ebay about 2 months ago. They actually turned out to be exactly as advertised. They are satisfyingly bright. They are plug and play just like they claim. Only thing you need to know is I didn't notice the email they sent me until I went searching for my purchase to share on...

    Highest Mileage LS V8?

    I've got 259000 on my 2001 v8 and my baby is still running like a scalded dog. One that get beat so every now and then she has a break down and refuses to move or causes me unexplainable mischief from time to time but still, a scalded dog.

    That is definitally a good heads up about the steering wheel. I forgot about that but it was such a headache. Like you said though, really pretty simple and straight forward. Just a lot of layers. And to make it worse I got mine back together and realized my gauges weren't set at the right spot...

    I didn't mean take apart the cluster. But you do have to remove it to replace the bulbs from the back. I very much agree tho. Might as well replace them all when you got it out. I was just working out the possibilities to stop the 5 chimes and even tho I was at the house 20 miles from the parts...

    I honestly cant remember. And I'm ashamed to say that I actually went with the quick fix of exchanging bulbs instead of buying a new one because I live so far from parts store. And it's been awhile. I dont even remember which I switched. Maybe seatbelt or something. Lol. Only thing worth...

    2001 Lincoln ls 3.9 water pump

    The first pic is my v8 and the second pic is a v6. Are the two plastic pieces I have circled in red interchangeable?

    2001 Lincoln ls 3.9 water pump

    The reason I ask is I was looking at a v6 and the coolant fill valve and other plastic pieces look the same. Are those interchangeable?

    2001 Lincoln ls 3.9 hydraulic fan conversion.

    Well my hydraulic fan finally went out. I have an extra fan to replace the old one but I'm considering doing the electric fan upgrade. Any recommendations or tips for this process? Thanks in advance.

    If you take your instrument cluster out and replace the lightbulb for the airbag light, the dinging should stop. It did for me anyway.

    I replaced mine and it was pretty much problem free. Went very smooth with really no issues or hang ups. Just wanted to put that out there
