Re: rear door latch on super cab

Try a place that installs glass. Large rivets are used on the window regulators. I bought some once but decided to let the glass shop install the replacement glass.

Re: A/C Mod

Unplugging the AC compressor in the winter can cause your compressor seals to dry out and leak refrigerant. The compressor needs to operate to keep the seals lubricated and sealed.

Re: key will not open door

Re: Floor Mat Question

I don't think any mats will stay put on the vinyl floor without something to hold them in place. The vinyl is jut plain slippery.

Re: 92 Ranger - massive oil leak near the filter

If the filter was leaking because of two gaskets or not tight wouldn't the filter have oil on it??

Re: Heated exterior side mirrors??
