Unfortunately no, my boys are playing baseball and the transmission still needs to be replaced in the explorer.
Let's do it soon!
Thanksgiving, Ocotillo? You get your tranny going?
Finally picked up a 2011 trans yesterday, should be back together very soon! Next up (besides the creature comforts) will be figuring out the front axles, need to get educated lol
I know I'm a slacker lol actually just have very little time these days. I want to do a whole write up, just need to devote some time. Here are a few to pacify
i need one of those @jackbenttube flange and 3"-2.5".I finally build a new exhaust system after finding my headers to have a pretty nasty cracking issue. I took one out of the @Giant Geoff advise book and put my stock exhaust manifolds back on, when I found the cracked header, I heard Geoff in my head and then said out load "WWGD"
So called up my buddy Brian and got a Black Widow muffler and had BTM Jack rough cut a flange for me and that I then formed an off the shelf 2-1/2" to 3" reducer to fit as the start to the new setup. The cat is a magnaflow full flow cat I've had like 20 years lol it got used for about 2 years on my old ranger before cutting it up. It and the flex joint (new) have been sitting in a cabinet for 17+ years lol I guess it pays off to be a hoarder sometimes. Pretty happy whit the whole setup, hoping the rain stops so I can hear how it sounds this evening.
Planning to head out tomorrow late afternoon after the boys baseball games, staying at Camp Kyle.
Have you swapped to the newer 4.0 SOHC or do the newer M5R1s still bolt up to the older 4.0 OHVs?
They still bolt up, there is just an extra bolt hole for the SOHC that does not get used. You use clutch and slave cylinder from your original year.
wish the rain would have stayed away a bit more for social reasons...and clean up, I pressure washed / cleaned for 3+ hours lol
