Wow didn't know where my gas leak was until I jacked her up today. Knew there was a leak as I was dripping silver dollar sized drops on the driveway and wherever I parked. Had to fire it up on the jack stands and look underneath. The steel line that runs along the driver's side frame rail...

That GD height sensor jumped off the lower axle ball stud again ! Fighting the overwhelming urge to sue the City of Ottawa I jacked up the Lincoln and believe (fool that I am) I cured it's evil ways. The following is a thread of pics to show the parts and what I did to repair/fix the...

As they say in the South "that just don't look RIGHT to me boys" I was jacking up the Lincoln to get underneath and install that F#@&ing height sensor back on it's studs and decided to try the Lincoln jack to make sure it worked. Well that just don't seem right to me at...

Had 6 huge people in the Lincoln last night for the first time. I'd had 5 regular sized people before, but never 6 and never people this large ! They got out after I'd DD'd them home last night and I swear the bumper was nearly two feet off the ground until the air suspension re-adjusted...

I'm beginning to realize I have a financial liability waiting to sting me, with those 4 freakin' cats under my feet (rusting and clogging as we speak). The price of replacement is enough to scare the behesus out of a guy ! With that in mind I'm going to a single 3" three stage cat Monday and...

Tossed the 3G 130 amp alternator onto the Lincoln's 5.0 litre tonight. Mechanically it was a walk in the park. Drilled out the big bolt ear to 7/16", serpentine belt lines up perfectly, though 1" too short (anticipated that). Beat the upper bracket flatter and die ground the adjustment groove...
