I drove my BKO at last weekend at highway about 81 MPH and all was ok. The low level rattling sound was come suddenly (sound like as burnt exhaust, but more, more quietly - in 1000 times:-) I stopped and checked - all seems is ok, but this sound appear all time now. It's starts at more, then 12 MPH and more, than 2000 RPM, BKO can't speed up more, than 62-65 MPH (it can exactly, but very hard, at "pedal to metal' throttle). When speed is about 65 MPH, engine is about 3000 RPM or slightly more, but don't increasing...
I can't understand about sound coming - engine, flywheel, torque converter, tranny? Probably it's placing at T converter-flywheel.

Tranny is ok and in good conditions at all other parameters except this situation. It's normally changing all 3 gears, kick-down is appear and usable, ATF temp is normal at long distance, level is ok, light-red colored, have normal transparency, not burnt, stall test is aprox 2000 RPM - seems normal, no self-driving at N, normal at R, self-driving starts at P and no-brakes...
BKO is normal climbing at hills...

What is it? Is it tranny fail or not? ]]> Noobie Bronco Tech Questions.

The truck just "wanders" when driving it on a level, straight road. It was lifted 6" by the previous owner and now has 35" tires.

Could it be that the Steering Gearbox is worn enough to cause the "wandering"? What are the other possibilities? :shrug The truck has well over 200,000 miles on it. Any insight or ideas would be greatly appreciated; thanks.

I did the copper autolite plugs gapped at .045. New wires cap and rotor. 15w-30 royal purple treatment with a K&N oil filter. New pcv valve and air filter box breather filter. New fuel filter as well. just turned 150k on the motor, and fresh rebuilt e4od with 200 miles on it since install.

After the tune up was done i started getting surging in the motor. Almost like it was missing at freeway speeds. I'm lost as to what could of happened. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Im supposed to take the family camping this weekend and want to try and fix the problem before out trip. Im all ears thanks again guys.

p.s. previous owner had 3 motorcraft plugs and 5 acdelco plugs in. Also all the plugs were gapped at .050. Dont know if that has anything to do with it. ]]> Noobie Bronco Tech Questions.

96 XLT and have replaced all the bushings, spacers to level, shocks, front
wheelbearings, manual hubs, K&N, and tires.

Suspention is all good now and the engine is tight.

Things to do: Edelbrock upper intake, Headers, and dual exhaust, (maybe heads and roller cam)

I will keep this one forever.

Ever since, i've wanted to build my own. Well, this weekend i went to the flea market and found a frame i know i could use for it. I then went online to search what others have done and found Trike Drifting.

I just recently picked up a '96 Eddie Bauer with 200K on the clock. She's my first 4x4, so I am a total rookie. Its in pretty good shape, but showing some age. I already ordered all new gaskets and runners for all the windows, headlights, grill, dash pad and warn premium hubs. Ill get some pics up soon.

What I really need is a set of factory eddie bauer running board supports, if anyone knows where I can pick some up I would be real appreciative.

Thanks,
Shane ]]> Introductions snatchSS454 http://www.fullsizebronco.com/forum/showthread.php?t=230962
