Nice Snickers photo JR! Did I ever tell you we used to have a cat named 'Snickers'?

While we're still waiting for the movies, another pic. ABS rear sensor is $17.73 at RockAuto.com

ok so this was my 1st off roading trip nd 1st time playing with youtube after waiting 20hrs 12 for iMovie to convert the video and 8 to upload to YouTube I was told it was rejected due to video being over 15mins

I got mad and cut everything out it's 12mins now it should be online on YouTube in 30mins I would wait for it and post a link but I have been up late enough I have work at 03:00

YouTube 07.20.11 or Gorman or ford-trucks or 4x4 or f250 or f350 or excursion if you wanna see it before I post the link tomorrow. link will be up before 08:00 if upload goes thru

Sounds good. My account is allowed to upload videos longer than 15 mins. You should mail me the memory card haha. I'm getting blazing fast Internet next week

Nice guys.
Looks like fun.
Is that Seans rig with the jerrycan rack? I've been looking for one like that.

Very nice Sean. That is a great addition to an Excursion.
Put a roof rack on and you're expedition ready.
I've been thinking about a rack like that for my new '74 but roll bar attached in the bed.
Thanks for the great ideas.
Sorry to stray off topic a bit guys.

Used, as others have said above, for speedometer and odometer calculations, the "rear" component of the ABS (anti-lock brake system) calculations, and is used for calculating shift points in the automatic transmission.

Thanks Pop! ABS light is now off.

I must admit I snuck away Friday back to Gorman (shhh, just between us)...

Just messin' around stuffin' tires. Sadly, no new scratches or dings added (need JR and Trey for that).

Isn't it about time for another trip?
