    Third Eye Break Light Removal

    I can't get the third eye off the back of the cab on my '94 to replace the break light bulb. Any tricks? I figured it would just pull off or the lense come out of the housing but no luck on either. I don't want to break anything. The cargo light bulbs are fine. I've tried pulling up, down and...

    Five Year Old NAPA Batteries

    I just replaced my batteries yesterday. Starting to spin a bit too slow. Started this summer actually. I put the NAPA Legend 75 batteries in October '03 and after five years replaced them with another set of the same. I'm thinking that's pretty good battery life. I don't know if anyone else has...

    Clutch Pedal Assembly Bushing Replacement

    I need to replace the bushings on the assembly and I need to know the best way to get the old bushings out and the new ones in. It looks like the assembly needs to come out by taking the two nuts loose for the clutch master cylinder, the four nuts that hold the brake booster on and two more...

    I want to get the gear oil changed in the rearend before we go to Montana this coming Sunday and I was wondering what was recommended as far as a synthetic or blend that I can get locally or through NAPA since I can get a discount.

    Troubleshooting Cruise

    Trying to track down my cruise control problem. I used the diagnostic info that Peter Clark sent me and it told me the "deactivation" switch is bad and is located on top of the frame under the vacuum booster. Well, there is no part in that vacinity. Also, the switches in the horn pad are good...

    A/C Blower Control

    I replaced the switch in the dash for the blower motor and I only have high speed. The old switch, turns out, is okay. Since there is only two leads to the motor there is another component between the switch and the motor, right? Who knows what this part is and where it is? The wife gets a bit...

    Waiting at Flying-J in Post Falls, Idaho with my dad to get propane on Sunday (04-17), and the guy ahead of us just bought an '88 F-350 7.3 CC SRW ZF 4X4 about a week earlier. We got to talking diesels ;Sweet and I told him about OB.Net. So hopefully he'll register and join us here. Real...

    Heater/ AC Question

    I have linkage to two vent doors that need work. One is the recirculating air door just inside of the blower motor and the other is the floor heat/ defrost door under the dash right above the hump. Ford says they've never had the dash out to work on these but I'm not sure how to access these...

    Finally Got The Filler Neck Mod Right!

    For the last year and a half I've been beating my head against the bumper trying to figure out why my filler neck mod didn't work. I tried gutting the rollover valve in the top of the tank and I gutted the filler neck, ran a 1/4" fuel line to the 1/4" copper fitting in the neck as a breather...

    Cold Front Self-Adhesive Snaps

    My dad gave me the cold front off his '94 when he sold it. I need the self-adhesive snaps that you stick to the grill and I can't find them locally. I tried accessory shops, upholstery shops, you name it. Anyone know of a source online or otherwise? Or if anyone has any they'd like to sell? The...
