    Factory Trailer Harness?

    I just tore into the rear trailer harness on mine to troubleshoot a lack of trailer brakes, OEM as far as I know with a 7pin, and it had those connectors. So you should be able to get the sub harness from the dealer. The factory controller was not an option on mine, 2006, but believe Dorman and...

    Adapter and spline count for Ford 4R75 auto trans. to NP273F TC

    What t-case did Ford put in the F150 of similar vintage? Should work with the 4r75 with 4wd output. I have a BW 1356 behind my 4R75 in my 06 Clydesdale - I didn't assemble it however, only pulled it to reman the transmission.

    I cleaned the retractor in my 06 when facing a similar issue and it works better now.

    1998 E350 V10 fuel filter change/system flush?

    Did it on my 5.4 with 260K KM recently, cheap and easy, x3 of the disconnect kit, clean and blow out the filter fittings well with air 1st before inserting the disconnect tool. Some lube too might help, quite an effort to yard mine off.

    Agile or ujoint

    Having a TTB 4WD van, albeit in stockish Ford geometry, and if I wasn't going to DIY, and had the time, I'd get in line for the Agile "tuned" TTB system setup for faster speeds. I'm debating some tuning to mine at home, namely longer radius arms and a steering linkage matched more closely to...

    E4OD advice

    Bought mine with the 4r75W (later EOD), had no reverse - bands broke, ~252K km. There are plenty of upgrades available to rebuild - Sonnax has most of the fixes available. A reputable builder can do it, I found one locally. I went with the full sonnax kit, better bands, etc, stock type clutches...

    gmc savana 4x4 conversion build

    Super cool! Keep updating PLEASE. IMO the GM powertrain is superior, and cheaper to build/replace, especially when you get into the "LS" style era. My buddies AWD express beats my E250 clydesdale like a rented mule.

    To buy or not to buy

    That rust doesn't seem too bad, relative to where I live, they salt the roads 6 months a year and we get a lot of mid winter melts. As for price, again, locally, try finding a nice 4x4 van for less than 40K cdn. Those buses offer a big upgrade in usable space over a van, especially for a camper.

    Not So Subtle E350 Shuttle - 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

    I can get my 15 YZ250FX, which is a tall bike, and my 15 KTM 250XC with 1" bar rise, into my E250 without having too much problem, *if* the hand guards/deflectors are removed, and any bar or top clamp mounted accessories are folded down. It is snug at the rear doors tho, I have 3/4" stall mats...
