i went ahead and called like 10 shops to kinda see what it would take to do the job and 9 out of the 10 mechanics said in order to do the oil pan gasket on my truck they would have to pull the tranny?, and would go ahead and replace the rear main while they were in there. i myself have never...
i have a 71 f100. the rear springs are sprung and in need of replacement but i dont have the mony to buy new. i was thinking about finding a truck bed trailer but im not sure of what years of trailer to look for to find some springs i can use. the ones on my truck are the 56 long and 2 1/4 wide...
ill tell you what they told me. If you have the capability of pulling the tranny and trailering the truck to the shop to have them do the seal it wont hardly cost any thing. other wise the rear main on my 88 f150 2x was going to cost me about $550 and i didnt want to pay that

it seemed like it was coming out of the actual valve. i disconnected the L shaped hose and oil came out of it to. not puring out but enough to run down the valve cover onto the manifold
my 88 f150 recently ran out of gas i went to put gas in it with a gas can and it wasnt going into the tank like it should. its it was just filling up the filler tube until it overflowed, i waited a couple of seconds and it was like it burped itself and the gas in the filler neck slowly went...
it was the 88 that had the ebrake problem not the 71. when i went to the parts store to get my ebrake cable for the 71 they just asked me to choose between a steel cable and a sturdy plastic looking one. but they had both in stock for both trucks. no problem findin them thanks though,and thank...
