    How do you adjust it? Just loosen the books that hold it in place and twist it or something?

    new transmission in my dads truck, whats wrong???

    He did have that replaced before he bought the transmission They told him something about reprogramming the sensor with the computer when they put it on(I have no idea who did it or what they were talking about) and after that he still had a shifting problem

    what does it take to put ac in?

    Or can I run the ac on a toggle switch and just use the panel in the cab I already have? Toggle is kinda seeming like my best option at the moment, but I don't really understand how the wiring works between the compressor and the pressure switch

    what does it take to put ac in?

    So I got to looking at this today and I noticed that the truck the ac come from the the switch for panel floor defrost etc is vacuum controlled, and in my truck that's a push pull cable controlling it So to change to the ac do I have to somehow convert my truck to use vacuum to switch that?

    what does it take to put ac in?

    On the vacuuming the system thing I am curious In my old Toyota one of the ac lines had a big hole in it, so I patched it with a combination of rescue tape and jb weld and recharged it, and it worked, did I get monstrously lucky? Was it super dangerous doing that? Just curious, can't say...

    what does it take to put ac in?

    Where do I get all of that stuff? Is it absolutely necessary to do that? My dad didn't change any of that out on the Lincoln, just used the cheapo retrofit kit on it and it works fine, or is that bad to do?
