Is that all there is???Turn the wheel around?!? Thanks for the idea, Mark... Now, as long as I won't be eating the air bag, all should be well with the Little Lady's ride. :beer:

Real nice...and not so much on the "Ford Flakes" around the wheel wells and the rocker panels. I've still got that to do on mine. Lotta fun fixin' and lookin' though, ain't it?

good to know...Thanks...now at least I know I won't be driving sideways or something... I don't know how I let it slip, but I haven't corrected it yet. I'm not looking forward to arguing with that Pitman arm on the steering gear again. :(

Now I know...It causes the steering wheel to be misaligned...duh!!! Okay...so I re-do it. :hammer:

Say...a funny thing happened on the way to the barber's... Not really, but that sounds like a better lead in than what I've got! A few words from the wise would be appreciated here, guys. After reinstalling the steering gear, but before tightening things down, I noticed the steering...

Thanks, Mark. Sounds simple enough... I start by pouring my quart of power steering fluid into two Coke bottles so I know when I've gone thru "a couple of litres", right? :beer: I hear Fords are difficult to bleed 'cuz the bends of the lines traps air, as well as in the box. What do you think...

Thanks, guys...as usual, the solution was all of the above. I also talked with a former NASCAR crew mechanic...his tip: heat one spot of the arm with a torch, rap the puller, and it pops off. I'd removed the gear with the puller attatched, so that, and using a ball peen hammer directily on the...

AGGGgggghhhh....two days trying and I can't get the Pitman arm off either end! I've tried the arm puller, heat, PB Blaster, and a BFH! Any suggestions? It's on a 1994 Lincoln Town Car...4.6...206,000 miles on the odo. I'd appreciate some trick o' the trade as I'm about ready to spit nails...

I bought a fiberglass cap off Craig's list...for $50. Met the guy in BFE in a CVS parking lot. Hmmmm...:rotz:

Sorry to hear about the aggravating theft. I thought, by the post title, you were car jacked...which is what 'jacked' means up here. Last Tues, a very famous preacher was robbed and car jacked. This guy and his family has sold over 1 million records, tours, started an inner-city school 20 yrs...

Thanks forthe suggestions and solutions. "A stack of tires...a ratchet strap...a dude with a hi-lo." All sound good to support the door once the bolts are loose. "Mark the hinge location, close the door on a 11/16 socket, replace the pins." More good ideas. Meanwhile, the job ain't done cuz...

I like the sound of this...but it sounds as if [I]something[I] is going to bend...or is that the idea?

As usual, Haynes makes it look sooo simple. I could use your help again, guys. The driver's side door is 3/4" low on the latch side. How does one reach the rearward 2 bolts on the body side of the hinge to adjust? Remove the door? Remove the fender? Say "screw it" and take it to a body...

I was at O'Riley's this afternoon and saw some oil absorbent. The package stated that it could also be used for winter traction, to line the BBQ, and as cat litter. Further down the notice said it contained crystalin silica...which, in the event of frequent exposure to it's dust could cause...
