I have never had power steering this smooth and powerful. My Saginaw was never this good much less the oem Thompson.
Turn on all my darn accessories and the alt gauge barely moves, yea!
Sat in central Florida traffic for 20 minutes.
The "feels like temp" is 99 to 104 degrees. In my experience its at least 10 to 15 degrees hotter on the asphalt.
She never went over 192.
Hehehehe....before this mod my eb never boiled over or traumatically overheated but its Achilles heel was idling in traffic.
She would hit 240+ degrees and keep climbing. Not now though, hehehe....
Yea!
Finally!
Been chasing the BTU God's for 25 GD years. Finally struck their ass down.
I almost forgot that I still have not added the ring to my fan shroud to fully encapsulate the fan to the proper depth (1/3 to 1/2). And yet it still works this good under these conditions.
Still can't get my new a/c compressor clutch to click the compressor on though.....
But I want to say without hesitation this may be my favorite mod.
And I have been modifying my eb for 35 years, my previous favorite mod was twin sticks.
My favorite mods are not always that expensive. Twin sticks are very affordable. Bang for the buck is huge!
The Explorer Swap is not necessarily cheap but you can do it in stages like I did. Took me a year or so to get everything I needed.
But this is my new favorite mod.
If you were considering this swap do not hesitate!
