    Power Steering Pump Leak

    Also, all of those fittings are flared (with the exception of the return side at the pump) , so don't use tape. The tape could be causing the fitting to not seal up and that might be your issue as well. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Power Steering Pump Leak

    What pump is it? My Saginaw leaked shortly after it was new. At first glance I thought it was the fittings as well, but it ended up being the seal between the reservoir and the pump. The vendor warrantied it out. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Any Good Pics of Explorer Stock Spark Plug Wiring (standoffs and clips, looms)

    This is the best one I have handy. I can get better ones later. It's the BC air box. It looks great, but the filter area needs to be bigger. I found an AEM dry filter that barely fits. The one that come with it an oiled type, that also does not fit great. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Any Good Pics of Explorer Stock Spark Plug Wiring (standoffs and clips, looms)

    Here are mine. I reused the stock wire separators and a zip tie or two. I had the stock cast manifolds for a while with this same set up. I have headers now. I did end up putting 90 degree boots on a few wires with the headers. The stock ends got to close to a few header tubes. Sent from my...

    DDI Voltmeter

    How did you do it? I remember others converting a Sunpro gauge, but not a digital. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Dana 20 set screw bitch!

    Well there ya go, I could not remember what it looked like. Now I remember. I agree with Paul, you should be able to find something close from hardware vendors. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Dana 20 set screw bitch!

    I am told the reason they are hard to get out was that there was a nylon lock in arms. I was lucky and they seemed to still work on mine. They were difficult to break free and the first few turns were hard, but they came loose. I did not look hard at the screws when they were out, but I don't...

    Idler Pulley Bearing Squealing

    I had the same set up from WH and had the same noise. I too replaced everything thinking it was the bearing and went very OCD with washers thinking it was an alignment issue with the belt. I worked with Morgan at WH (I think it was Morgan, it's been a while), we decided the belt they provide...

    1999 Explorer 5.0 Swap Into '69 - Carbureted, Manual Fuel Pump?

    I forgot to mention the heads, dmoses is right. I ran the stock explorer manifolds for a while before getting p specific headers. I have read you can modify early 70s stock 302 manifolds and add a few 90 degree boots. The mustang guys have a lot of stuff on the web about modifying the 70s...

    1999 Explorer 5.0 Swap Into '69 - Carbureted, Manual Fuel Pump?

    Make sure your flexplate and flywheel are 50 oz too. This is easy if you have a C4, just use the explorer flexplate. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    1999 Explorer 5.0 Swap Into '69 - Carbureted, Manual Fuel Pump?

    I believe you will also need the longer dowel on the cam for the fuel pump eccentric. You will also need a different harmonic balancer for the 50oz motor, assuming your 302 is a stock 28 oz motor. A question, why not run the Explorer front dress? It's so much better for cooling and you get the...

    My LS3/6L80e Engine Swap…..no haters please.🙏

    People will have some opinions for sure, but I think it's pretty cool! I did the Explorer swap with the 4R70W in my rig and I love it. Since then I've been more and more intrigued with LS stuff. It's an excellent platform with so much aftermarket support its ridiculous. If I I'd it all over...

    Do I need a longer drive shaft?

    It's been a while, but I seem to remember my D30 shaft being a little too long when I went to the 44. It fit, but it was too compressed. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

    Explorer swap questions

    You can use the same flexplate that the 4R70W used, if it's the same motor and you kept the same 58 oz. balance. If it's a 28oz motor just use an older 302 or 351 flexplate for the C4 or AOD. I ran the C4 behind my swap for a while until I got my 4r70 done. I used the stock C4 torque converter...

    Explorer EFI 5.0 Poor Throttle Response

    Another vote for Remflex gaskets and stage 8s. Never touch it again. I have the same headers and exhaust. I feel your pain on those collectors. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
