    crank & cam sensor install

    ok, got my parts in to replace some bad pieces in my ignition system. the help I need is with the install. I have swapped out a crank sensor in the F250 I had...straight forward...just a pain to get the old one out. But has anyone replaced the cam and/or the crank sensors on the 4.6? if...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    well as of now my car tracks horribly due (I believe) to the top of the front tires leaning in real bad up top on the front tires and the 245 tires on the 17x9 rim (smaller tread width vs rim size). That is why I want to know what the best set up is to avoid tracking because we have bad roads...

    and you dont have any tracking or road groove following problems? Why I ask is a lot of people complain about it on the wider front tires.

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    hey hotrodnut...you must be here in Jax. I just called that company...300 if I buy the gears from them or 350 if I bring them the gears. OUCH!! :bang: but they said I can wait while they do it and it takes about 3 hours and they can do it on Sat so I dont have to take off work. Oddly enough...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    ok...it is final. I am not getting the 315's and 10.5's right now. that is something for the future. But I am probably going to go with what MM recommended including the panhard bar. I have a buddy who just agreed to come help me throw it all on and he is bringing his air compressor and...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    Actually they listened to what I wanted to do with the car and suggested that package and said that the arms would help but when I asked about the cobra front control arms they told me not to use the $$ on those since I will not be pushing my car to the max it's a DD here in Jax that will be...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    ok...with some recently gained insight and some serious reflection on my wants vs my needs...I am seriously thinking about getting a smaller version drag radial on the back...like the 275 and putting it on the 17x9 rims I have now. I can put 275 (unless I can go wider w/o going too big on the...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    for all my wants/needs (tires/rims/alignment/suspension parts/welding/gears/labor as needed) I have a total of about $3000 :nice: very true...about $400 for 2 rims to match fronts...but I need 4 tires no matter what and the 315 nittos are about the same $$ so just the rims make the...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    ok....to answer the question about the panhard bar first...they say...and it is quoted on their site...that the car can lean as much as 2" which can and WILL make the 315's connect with the inner fenderwell and chew up the tire. I dont have the $$ to do any part of this twice. which then...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    I would love to have all of it...and might still do it. But why would MM think that the 315's would get destroyed if I didnt run the panhard bar when so many people run the 315's with just springs and CC's? I want the tires for the looks...but I can get the same effect (sorta) with spacers and...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    Well, for the record...I fully trust MM and if $$ wasnt so tight on $$ I would have ordered it all already. I CAN fit it all in on the $$ I have gathered up...just dont want to spend every cent I have and have something go wrong or not be accounted for (which always happens in upgrades) then I...

    calling Almighty Suspension Guru's--help me spend my $$ wisely

    ok...as the title states...time to spend $$. here is the deal, I have a "little" $$ to spend on suspension and tires/rims. BUT...I have questions about it before I throw my little money in the wrong place or just waste it. I have already had MM on the phone for about an hour discussing...

    COP test question

    thank you very much. I had checked two of them across the plug connector and got 0.00 ohms but I see now I had the meter set too high. I will go back and check all of them with the proper setting and correct connections.

    COP test question

    well...this car got a slight miss after I took it back to the dealer I bought it from for them to do some warranty work they promised me whenI bought it and they did a "detail" that they owed me also. From that point on it has had a little miss. But now it is to the point where it shaking and...

    COP test question

    well, I havent bought one yet for this car (2002 Gt) and I am out of town right now. I have had a miss for awhile but it was a minor miss. But for the last 2 weeks it has been getting way worse and now that I am 4 hours from Jax at my parents house it is running like crap and I have to drive...

    COP test question

    I know that some people use the "swap and find" method to test for a bad COP but since I have possibly 2 bad ones I would like to know if there is a way to test more scientically. I do believe there should be a way to test them with a multimeter but need to know what the values should be and...
