Running the compressor will chill the air, and then when you adjust the temp control for something comfortable, you still have the advantage of dry air blowing over your windshield, which will keep it from fogging up.

The add a leaf is the same size as the second from the bottom leaf that was already in the spring pack. My question is, Do I put the Add-a-leaf above or below this same size leaf. or do I replace the one leaf with the add-a-leaf??

My 86 Ranger was rear ended by a mercedes today as i was pulling into my driveway. Nobody was injured, although the mercedes had significant damage, my Ford only received some minor scratches on the bumper. As I was inspecting my truck I noticed that the right side of the tailgate lifted up without any resistance when the tailgate was half opened. I cant ever remember it doing that. Is this normal or damage inflicted by the import? thanks, Chris Earls ______________________________________________________ == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info http://www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ End of small-list-digest V3 #310 ******************************** +- Ford Truck Enthusiasts - Ranger, Explorer, Bronco 2 and Aerostar --+ | Send posts to small-list ....To access the rest of this feature you must be a logged in Registered User Of Ford Truck Enthusiasts
