Fixed my air intake and ordered 8 new COPS to hopefully solve my idle issue....its dipping about 50-60 RPM at stop sign etc but is sporatic at the moment...Plugs have already been changed so hopefully have a bad COP. ~76K miles...but I drove thru some water the other week and can def say there was water in the engine bay :o

 

It was nice today turned on the heater and washed the truck.

Installed my seat covers finally. They went on pretty well, some places didn't line up properly but oh well.

 

where did you order these? i havent seen them for but 400 bucks for the set, 50 bucks or so each.

 

despite 20 deg. as the high here I washed the nasty road salt OFF!
noticed all the parts Ive got to repaint next spring! (shocks, traction bar, steps ect

 

Sold my old 3.55 ring and pinion that used to be in my truck for $50. Good thing I didn't throw it in the dumpster.

 

global automotive on ebay. If you do a search for them on here you will find tons of threads from members using them over the motorcraft ones due to prices. Lifetime warranty and got all 8 for $104 vs ~$84 each from Ford.

I'll keep my motorcraft ones that come off that are still good in case the Global's fail. Some people have had issues returning defective ones but for $16.95 each its hard to pass up.

 

I traded my '07 STX for a '11 STX on 12/30. I love the Race Red paint, the Sync and the extra power of the 5.0L.

 

bout the recon white lightning bar and hooked it up to the 4 pin...i doubt it will ever get hardwired

 

mines not hardwired and been that way for several months

Just zip tie the wires out of place for the backup light splice and call it good

 

got dents taken out of the roof yesterday, friend washed it up nice for me too. i gotta keep it clean more. i really wanna wire up my driving lights but cant find the motivation, since i hate wiring. also gonna try to fix my alignment sometime too.

 

I went to the carryout for a case of "Butwipes", allmost 2 milles!

 

i did a very small splice for the reverse, cuz i hate messing with the original wiring, but other then that works awesome!! i hope it doesnt take a crap on me i paid 90 bucks out the door at 4wheelparts, and they cudnt tell me what kinda warranty it came with, thanks for the tip bud

 

"Fixed" some stone chips in the front bumper. Found out I'm not a painter and going to have it redone in Spring/Summer

 

Well I was sick off it all not being black. even though I have not bought my new wheels and tires I painted my stock wheels black. Now just need to get my leveling kit installed that has been sitting in my dining room for 2 weeks, and get my black tails on that should be here in a couple days. Also putting in the l.e.d. interior lights and reverse lights in this week! Always addicting!!

 

Coming close to 60k on the ticker... less than 50 miles away
