Subject: Tire size question Ok guys, here is yet another tire question. My Father in law had P265/75R15 Wilderness AT's on his 94 Ranger. (It's a 4X4 Supercab with 4.0) He needed new skins for state inspection and wouldn't wait for me to go with him to get new tires. He went to the local tire outlet here and came back with 31X10.50 15 LT Apache AP's Question #1 Is that size equal to the P265/75 ? Question #2 Has anybody even heard of Apache? I guess that they are somebody's "off" brand, but who? The tread looks agressive enough for what he'll be doing, which is mainly SE Pennsylvania snow storms, and maybe I can get it out on the beach down in Delaware ;) Oh, and yes we did hang onto the feeblestones in case they expand the recall.....

Subject: Rear ABS Light - Update Hey Tim, Bill and others, Where specifically is the diagnostic connector for the ABS system? I looked and looked under the dash but could not find anything. I took a photo of what I think it could be, but I am not sure, and would like to avoid grounding random wires. The book and faxed docs speak of the orange/black wire. I took a picture of what I think they *may* be reffering too. Check out: http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.jps.net/jmclaugh/Adam/abs.jpg And look at the connector to the right of the steering shaft. It has a orange/black wire going in and out of it, at a quick disconnect connector. Could this be it? Also, we mentioned chaffing. Check out this pic: http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.jps.net/jmclaugh/Adam/wiring.jpg It is of the spot where half of the harness wore through, and caused me some great condusion and stuff when one day I was driving down the road and she shut down. Until that time, I did wonder why the heck the rear tail lights wouldn't go on for any reason. You can see how I soldered everything and then heatshrunk it together. As far as I know, it's all okay now. Darn intermittants!! Adam ------------------------------ From: "Sheats, James" <James.Sheats mortgage.wellsFargo.COM>

Subject: Re: Intake Troubles/Ideas Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2000 16:13:39 -0500 I have thought about that, but I'm afraid it wouldn't be good for me, I live in a dirt road and that would pull in a HUGE amount of dust, especially the way I drive on said dirt road. By the way, do you know how to get the front quarter panel off so I can get to the intake? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Haight" <mhaight1 home.com>
