This turned into a larger than expected intro
Hello all
I’m new to the forum but not forums in general. My name is Josh from Tx & I purchased a 1998 ford XL 4.2 on Sunday. It is currently my 3rd ford. I also have a 2010 mustang GT & a 1999 ford contour. I’ve had a couple rangers in the past as well. I’ve already come across & started using some of the stickies on here such as the throttle cable zip tie mod & plan to do the intake mod I think it’s the GOTTS one. Ive already replaced my cluster, HVAC, & reverse lights with LEDs. Today I removed the throttle body to clean it as that was something I’ve done on my other fords but turned out to be barely dirty at all. I ordered a radio harness to get a JVC deck that I have laying around installed. Id like to level the rear out, what is the best/better/worst options? I seen shackle kits on eBay starting around $40 but I wanted some opinions first. & I also wanted to say hello :waving:
