Had I found a V10 or 7.3 I would have converted to 4x4.

installed a cruise steering wheel and clockspring, but didn't get a chance to test drive it to make sure the cc works.

I still drove it 1000 miles yesterday without an issue. Ripped a bunch of the kids dvds onto 1 SD card. That was pure brilliance. It was like a movie jukebox that would auto play the next one. Very easy for my wife to operate from the front right passenger seat for the little girls in the back.

you need to have the ecm programmed at a dealership to get the cruise control to operate if you havn't already.

Installed new rear door rubber gaskets, got em from that link I saw on here somewhere.....anyway, great oem quality and fit, they didn’t have the side door gaskets in stock.

As if splurging on a FF rear end weren’t enough, I noticed a coolant leak and then hearing a funny new rotational noise that progressively got worse coming from the engine compartment. After closer inspection, I noticed a bolt protruding from my water pump pulley, and 2 out of the 4 were altogether gone! I tightened the 2 remaining and luckily the noise went away, and luckily it didn’t let loose, could have been a complete disaster!
I ordered up a new water pump, 203* thermostat and billet thermostat housing from Strictly Diesel. While the shop has er opened up replacing the water pump, I’m also getting a new water pump pulley with 4 new bolts, a new belt and both hoses. That aughta do it for a while, I’m hoping......

Yikes, that would have been a real show stopper. Was the water pump worked on lately?
