    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Drove the ford tonight!! So far it’s doing great. All noises are gone and the the new shocks and tires made it ride like a new car!! I will get some pictures and a maybe a video of it tomorrow. Now all it needs is bath and some detailing. Next will be coating floors with the POR 15 and...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Hope to drive it later this week. I discovered that I didn’t have brake lights. Found the wires going to the switch off the master cylinder barely hanging on by one thread of wire. I ordered a new switch and wiring harness last night so I hope to see it here in a few days.Sent from my iPhone...

    E4OD issues

    I had a little time to look into my transmission problems and have not found anything yet. All sensor readings I can see on an scan tool look normal. I triple checked fluid level. So I have made an appointment at the trans shop for a week or so from now. I know the owner really well and he said...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    I decided to run the original caps and rings on the light green wheels for now. I will put the Cadillac hudcaps back on eventually. Thought it would be a nice change. The car had a bent wheel on it and we had he green set sitting loose and they were in better shape. I put a new set of Coker wide...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Thanks I think it turned out great. It took a little time but was well worth it. I used Eastwood Rust Encapsulator and Eastwood chassis black. Both products are great and the finished product looks like it will last a long time.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Been a while since I posted in this thread. I ended up pulling the rear diff out of the ford to fix a noise and turned it into a small project. Decided to clean and paint the housing. Had the car apart almost 8 months. Just finished getting back together last night but the battery wasn’t up...

    E4OD issues

    The funny thing about the stalling issues is that it doesn’t happen immediately when you stop. It will idle ok for about 10-30 seconds then you fell it bogg down and the rpm drop to the point it will stall. Put in neutral or 2nd goes away and idles fine. If you keep a little throttle applied the...

    E4OD issues

    I have changed the fluid and filter. Maybe I should have used Mercon IV instead of the factory spec? I used versatrans fluid which is up to the factory specs.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    E4OD issues

    I looked at the connector when I put the solenoid pack in last fall. It seemed ok I cleaned it and put dielectric grease on it and plugged it back in. I will check again and make sure nothing is rubbing on exhaust or anything around it. Solenoid pack did not fix the issues it happened again once...

    E4OD issues

    I have replaced throttle position already. Truck had a issue when I first got it where it wouldn’t idle and would stall. It would idle at 2k sometimes and never come down. Found tps was reading about 4 volts at closed throttle. Not to say it may have gone bad again but the voltage is below 1volt...

    E4OD issues

    My 92 has started having issues with hard shifts and engine bogging down at idle when stopped. I’m not very familiar with the E4OD trans and am in no way an expert when it comes to transmissions. I wish I knew more about them. But hopefully someone on the site will be able to shed some light on...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Well it was a good first trip for the 50. We put about 130 miles on it. It has a few noises so I might be looking into the rear diff hopefully it is only an axel bearing not a carrier bearing. The rain kept most people in today only 248 cars showed up at the cruise in. But it was still a good...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    Trying my hardest to get the Ford road worthy this week so I can take it to a car cruise! For those close enough to go you should look it up on the web. It called somernights cruise in somerset ky. They do a free cruise-in every month last year they had about 1200 cars. It about an hour and a...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    I have been slowly rebuilding the brakes on the Ford for a few weeks now. I have resurfaced the drums and put shoes, hardware, wheel cylinders and hoses on so far. Still have to replace the front bearing and races for the drums so I can put them back on for the last time. I also have a new...

    Got a 92 f150!

    Little update on the tires. I found that they do have a hop or high spot to them. It noticeable when the temp is cold but when they warm up it goes away. They do smooth out once up to speed also. I guess that's what I get for buying a cheap tire but it's not annoying enough to do anything about...

    Got a 92 f150!

    Put about 800 miles this weekend on truck and it did great. Used a lot of gas but I'm glad I didn't have any issues. Tires are still doing great still fairly quiet but I need to check the balance again. But for the price I paid I'm not complaining.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Got a 92 f150!

    Well I am on alternator #3 so far on the truck. Two remans and finally a new unit. So far the new unit is doing way better than the reman ones. I guess I'm finding out the woes of the 2g style, in the future if I have more issues I might want to think about upgrading to a 3G style.Sent from...

    Working on the 50 ford again!!

    I have to say this has been one of the best combos on a flathead for sound. Plus flatheads have there own tune to boot. But I guess I'm a little bias because I grew up around this car and I always loved the way it sounded. To me nothing sounds like a flathead with dual smithy muffler and Eco can...
