    Looking For Help On Surging Idle. Went Through Check List, But Still Surging.

    4.6 Swap Underway. Need Ideas To Solve Rear Axle Problem.

    yeah, the fox donated all the harnesses and much of the interior/steering column to a 4 cylinder, so I have little choice. from my research its going to be about 8 hrs of test fitting and trimming. The upside is that there will be no splicing/wiring diagram head scratching to do.

    4.6 Swap Underway. Need Ideas To Solve Rear Axle Problem.

    4.6 is in. not sure if/why I have to swap to the fox control arms. need to do more research on that. still plenty of crap to do. had to grind on the rear tab of the kframe, but otherwise went right in. hood even closes without modification.

    Gotta chop the firewall a lot to get the an 95 firewall plate on there. Getting those steering column plates off was a legit 4 hrs of work.

    Roger that. The mounts are right in the way of where the brake lines will run. They gotta go. Will have to weld sn95 mounts to the bottom of the fox frame rails.

    Great news. These fox sway bar mounts... Do they need to be cut out? I'm going with the fox control arms so I will need the fox sway bar, correct. Do you know if the 4.6 will fit with the mounts in there. I guess I could get out the tape measure.

    Thanks 5l5. a 98 axle materialized out of nowhere, what complications exist when using that axle? entire brakes and wiring harness are going over to the fox. Will stock sn95 rims fit with the sn98, or will I still have outpokage?

    4.6 Swap Underway. Need Ideas To Solve Rear Axle Problem.

    I think this is the ticket. The width from outer wheel lip to outer wheel lip is 68" or so. The measure from fender lip to fender lip is about 68 inches as well. If I roll the lip and the 197 wheel sucks it in a half inch, it should fit barely.

    Engine About To Break Transmission Coolings Lines Unless Someone Stops Me.

    put a torch on it and get it hot, then let it cool. repeat that cycle 5 times, spraying oil inbetween sessions. then get it nice and hot and try breaking it. its probably going to break though. might not. definitely need a nice flare wrench. There isnt too much pressure on those lines...

    you could swap it out for 1,000,000,000 lb/hr injectors, you just need to change how long they are open for.

    here, an analogy: think of it like a firehose and a garden hose. lets say I have programmed you to water the grass one second every minute. I didnt tell you which hose you are operating... your only instructions are "open the nozzle at the end of this hose for one second every minute" so you...

    "I think it's 14mm vs 12mm but not sure. Basically you'll need sleeves." thanks, good info. I guess I will just have to mock it up and see how it fits. plenty of work to do before that point.

    4.6 Swap Underway. Need Ideas To Solve Rear Axle Problem.

    haha, I already crossed the point of no return. If I am reading everything correctly, the 4.6 Kmember will swap in with some minor grinding. the 8.8 sits 1.5 inches wider on each side. the stock 02 bullits come with +30 offset, so to make it stock width, I would need something like +70mm I...
