Twiisted71, who dat

Just another wrenchin, tweakin, modificator. Literally NONE of my vehicles remain bone stock for long as I tend to make what is available into how I want it to be. My Sport Trac is the one exception so far. IMHO Ford nailed it with this design. My recently purchased van will likely be what I ask questions about as its the first vehicle I've ever owned with this much electronic gobbledy gook and my first van. I tend to keep stuff a long time if I can make it meet my needs/wants.

past rides:
'78 F250 4x4 400M 4 speed granny Belleview/Warn 8000 winch, bone stock family hand me down
'86 F150 300/I6 4 speed OD 2wd SWB changed to NP435
'83 Ranger SWB began with early Fox Mustang 2.3 turbo with pull-thru carb 4 speed, finished with 2.3 SVO motor T5--Totalled
'86 Isuzu P'up 2wd manual everything
'81 Toyota 4x4 5 speed beater
'84 Ranger 2.3 5 speed
94 Ranger excab 2wd 4.0 OHV 5 speed
'80 Bronco 300/I6 4 speed granny, 33s, custom canvas 1/2 cab, Warn 8274
'76 Bronco 302 3 speed PTO Ramsey winch 33s, after a couple builds 351W 4 speed NP435 granny, soft top
'01 Ram 1500 EC 4x4 5 speed NV3500
'95 Mustang 6 cyl auto
'89 Mustang 2.3 5 speed coupe
'89 Mustang GT 5 speed
'01 Ram 2500 EC 4x4 auto Cummins 33s tuner, lots of fiddling'

'01 Honda 1100 Sabre
'98 Honda Valkyrie

Welcome to the site...I have the Tim The Tool man Taylor disease as well....lol

I just bought an 89 YJ from Virginia that's in pretty awesome condition, been tearing through it restoring some things that are worn. She has a 4" lift and just tossed a set of 33s under it.
