Hi Roni,
I bought the white mirrors from you so I hope they are on the way since my truck is up for paint this week.
My question is: Do you think the mirrors look better in black or white ?

I thought maybe black since the rubber seal around the window is black to give it uniformity.
Where did you get the black shorty antenna ?

Do you still have the pioneer deck... I am interested in getting it also.
I usually go for Kenwood but the previous already had it harnessed for Pioneer.

 

Roni,
This is so cool... I was at the junkyard on friday and plenty of ford taurus.. had i seen this post i would have saved some gas money and picked them up so now i have to make another trip.
You got some good ideas man !

 

I have brand new motor mounts for about $18.00 -$21.00 each depending if its the left side or right side.

Here are the part numbers:

12301-35141 RIGHT SIDE ENGINE MOUNT
12302-35051 LEFT SIDE ENGINE MOUNT


PM me if you need it or just call my office at 786-440-6440

Humm coffe/ pop spilling all over your deck does not sound good to me


I pucker up every time I spill in the stock cup holder from bump or some thing

 

Yeah not only that but warm drinks get cold cold drinks get warm....the stock holder places your cup right in front of the vents!

Glad you like the ideas Zach. I can't take full credit on the cup holder though...found that one on yotatech.



This weekend I installed some black door handles and hub centric rings for my rims. There is a lot of false info on the hub size on these trucks. I'm pretty sure there all the same which makes them 67.1 and not 60.1. Unfortunetly they hub centric rings did not cure my vibration. Not sure what it is I will have to dig deeper to find out. Could be out of round tires due to previuos owner drifting.

PICS


compare shot....switched over the lock cylinder







The wheels are growing on me....even the color.lol


big brother in the backround haha

truck's looking good man, all that black looks good on it!

 

what's your overall ride height?

 

Roni
How much you want for your old chrome exterior handles?

I want them
By

 

thanks estgang. Im running 4" blocks in the rear with adjusted torsion bars up frobt to level it out. Im hoping to switch to 3" blocks and drop spindles sonetime soon. Maybe chunkier tires to lol



Think im just going to keep them as spares. One of parts that holds the clip cracked upon removal...so its kinda broken man.

-RONI-

 

with the 4" blocks did you have to notch anything out for clearance?

 

Not sure dude installed by previous owner. But im pretty sure it was just plug n play. Btw i bought tires today! Lol i love craigslist. There no bigger but they are brand name and in great shape. Im hoping having perfectly round tires will get rid of the vibration if not at least help the situation.

-RONI-

 

oh ok brobro, just wondering.

 

Roni

Did you separate the wires in the harness to keep the wires going to the coil on the same left side ?
or did you do something else ?

 

I tried this setup on my '93 Hilux but I have Air Conditioning Lines.. thick ones that get in the way of the airbox.
Trying to figure out how to get around them.

 

I tried doing the air intake / battery swap but I noticed that you don't have air conditioning in your truck whereas I do and that creates a problem with the AFM being able to rest comfortably in the passenger side of engine bay.... Will have to make some serious shifting to get it to fit.... The standard intake snorkel tube will not work so I went to advance auto parts and picked up a chrome elbow from specter performance for $11.99

 

might find some info. here

irab88's battery/intake swap - YotaTech Forums

So the tires I purchased are not much bigger but just a little beefier. Had to have them shaved to be round but still worth it to me. got a few pics but not really good. post better pics when I have time...

i love the rims. that style looks perfect with the drop. id keep them a color, even if you repainted the red. could half and half them and have 2 different sides lol.

and major find on the taurus cup holder thing. ill be getting all of those i find from now on haha

 

I went with 225/50/15 Acceras and they are great...

 

Roni,
These are great to have
I picked up a couple of these from the salvage yard and after spending some 2 hours in the grueling sun I found that only the 1991 - 1995 Ford Taurus or Mercury Sables have these... '96 won't work. I ended up buying 4 sets of these so if anyone is interested in having one just PM me.
