Few Questions
I bought a 1992 Ford F-150 about a week ago. When I bought it I knew that their were a few little problems with it but it is my first vehicle so I figure it's good enough for me. It is extended cab and short bed. AIt has power windows, power locks, 302 V-8 and 4 speed automatic. Well my questions are: 1. Their is a key broken off in the drivers side door.Wondered how i could get that out. 2. I was wondering if it had a limited slip differential. On the door it has a code number 19 for the axle. 3. The passenger side door panel has some clips broken off and wondered where I could buy some new clips. Thanks for your knowledge.
P.S. This spring I want to buy a dual exhaust for it. What is the best sounding system out there?
Thanks

1. For the door lock I don't really know. I might consider taking it to a locksmith and seeing if they can use a tool to remove the key.
2. The axle is the same as mine, no posi/limited slip. Its an open rear with 3.55 gears.
3. I just recently replaced a bunch of them door panel fasteners on my '89. They are cheap and most autoparts stores should have them. Slide off a good one and take it down with ya. I got like 5 for $2.50 in a package. They are alot more brittle and I broke alot of them trying to get them on to the door panel so be carfull. You might want to get more than you need just in case.

Thanks prcrboy! I thought I might do good on that one.
Only other think I might add is if ya have to get a new lock then you will have to have the locksmith set the lock to your key, do that before ya install it. Also get a can of white lithium greass and spray that stuff in all the joints of your door hardware for the doors and work it in. Will be smooth as a babys bottom! hehe
Also be real carfull removing the plastic vapor barrier cause nobody makes em. I have to make 2 new ones out of 4 mil plastic cause mine are wrecked.
