(approx. 1/16 inch ??) Synchro gears have a bit of wear on edges but otherwise ALL teeth in case look good.. There is also a casting crack/chunk on the "non-shifter" side of BOTH shift fork shafts out of the iron casting.. the chunks are only about 1/4 x 3/8 and are between the shaft and the opening It appears this transfer case has been hammered a bit.. I think my welder can brace that end and there is no apparent crack inside the casing.. this almost looks like a normal thing that would occur ????? If you know of someone or someplace who would have these forks please contact phil able office machines.. 1-503-236-0060 phil ableofficemachines.com ------------------------------ From: "Mike McPhillips" Subject: 302 smog Date: Sun, 27 Feb 2000 21:32:20 -0500 Yes, you can bypass it without the idler. If you don't have a/c, you MAY need the motorsport idler. Both stangs I did it to had a/c. One had the compressor missing and the belt diagram shows that the p.s. pump is in the same spot with or w/o a/c but its not. without, its up higher, so I had to get a junk compressor w/ good clutch bearing to act as an idler because otherwise the belt is too low and rubs against itself where it goes around the waterpump.

Mixing and matching factory and underdrive pulleys will create problems. In some cases, it may be necessary to loosen the bolt holding the belt tensioner to the bracket to facilitate a clean fit or make a final adjustment." 10 BEST BUYS IN BOLT-ONS by Neil Van Opre, August, 1991 issue, Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, pages 34-37, 42-44, and 64-66.

The power steering pump is metal it is not round but more of a tear drop style. The pump is out of a 75 lincoln. Which I beleive is why I am having problems with finding the correct hose.

Uhm ... okay ... its a combination of things ... 1) light in the tail 2) solid rear axle 3) progressive rate springs At least that's my take on it as my truck isn't too bad about it (unless the tracks are on a turn) The solid axle means if they hit while you're turning at all one will break loose and then the other, this usually means the other can't quite hold the truck even and it "drifts" anything with a solid axle will do this on certain bumps. Likely when you've got the extra weight on there there is enough traction to actually hold things down and not get the drift. This could be compounded by progressive rate springs going from their lighter rating to the heavier one because of the suspension travel. Of course there's also tire pressures involved here too .. if the tire is inflated to max pressure it will be very hard and cause a heck of a bounce ... if you don't haul a lot, or very often, try airing down a few pounds and see if it gets better ... there's really no reason to run max pressure unless you're asking the tires to turn hard or something ... or buy an IRS ... :) Just my $.02 wish 96 Mustang GT 5spd 4.6L 73ish 1/2ton 4x4 6.4L http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.public.iastate.edu/~wish ------------------------------ From: "William S.

Then I drove to the parts store and got some belts that were about that length, tried them in the parking lot and kept the one I liked most (after going back to pay for it of course :-)) In this case I guess you can't drive the vehicle but I'm sure you can buy some belts and return what you don't need. Make sure you get the right width belt also.
