I am not sure exactly what it is called, but I am looking for that little plug that fits on the back bumper where the tow ball should go. I have never had a tow ball on my truck, and never plan on getting one. And that hole that is there right now looks terrible. I know they make little plugs...

Before I get jumped on, no, I don't want to put my engine in a mustang. Here is the story. Friend of mine works at a carwash and had a 04 terminator come in the other day. Guy claims that he bought the car and the engine blew up. He then sued Ford and won, getting them to install a brand...

I just saw Venemous' post here (http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=307603) about him getting a new bike. I just got a new (old) bike and thought I would post it up too. Its a 2000 Kawi ZX6R. Got it for a great price and am loving it so far. I don't have any great pics of...

New Brakes *pics* Well I just got my new powerslots and hawk pads installed this 4th of July week. The install went pretty smooth, after some know-how from a few friends that are more mechanically inclined than I. While I was in there I painted the calipers and added some SVT and Lightning...

I bought the truck used in October and I thought I knew all the mods that were done to it. The more that I drive my truck though, the more I feel like I may have some kind of tranny mod done. My shifts are very firm, sometimes almost jerky. I can't imagine that the stock tranny would kick...

I noticed tonight that there is a loud "whirrling" noise coming from my engine bay. So I keep the truck in idle, pop the hood, and listen. Check around for a little bit, crawl under the truck, and notice that it seems to be coming from the lower pulley. Everything looks tight, couldn't see...

For those of you that dont know, the bumper of my truck was stolen a couple weeks ago. http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285942 Well, today I finally recieved the truck back. The grand total of the bill was almost $4,000 ($3,800 something I think). Luckily insuranced...

So the other day I decided to spend the night at a friends apartment. I wake up early in the morning to go to work, jump in my truck, and drive off. Immediatley I hear a scraping sound so I get out to see whats up. What do I find?!?! Someone stole my front bumper!!!! :bash: :bash: The...

Well, I have been trying to get some video of my L on my computer but I am having a crappy time. I have a Sony DV camera and was wondering what all you guys use to capture video? When I try to capture mine it becomes really choppy after about 4 seconds. What do you guys use?

I bought my L used and was always under the impression that I had a 4# lower. But the more I look at the pulley, the more I think it is stock. When I measure it, it comes out to exactly 8.5". Am I stock or not?

Here is my situation. I have been doing the console mod on my L. I ordered all the hardware that I needed through Ford for the console and new seat. I just recieved my seat back from the upholstry shop today and tried to bolt it back into my truck. I found out that the seat bracket that was...

Well, I finally got my expy console in the truck. I got one off ebay around October, and I just finally got all the required parts to put it in. I am very happy with the results. I want to give a big thanks to Chris Nelson, not only for his amazing how-to...

I have been trying to remove the back plastic pieces in the cab of my truck, but I am hitting quite a few snags. I removed the passanger seat, and the black box in the back. I popped out all the rivets holding the back plastic in, but the piece still won't come off. I tried tugging on it...

So I have been saving up to get a KB, or maybe the whipple but recently I have been thinking of other things. The weather is so damn nice here in Texas (it was 80 today) that I was thinking of getting a bike instead. I have been scouring through Cycle Trader and have found some pretty good...

Alright, since I have had my truck my speedo has been wrong. I have tested it next to other cars, driving into a speed radar (the ones the set up on the road) and with a handheld GPS unit. All my test confirm that my speedo is about 5-6mph fast. Most people would say "thats not that bad" or...

I know awhile back someone said that this website (http://www.factoryreproductions.com/lightning2001.htm) was going to start selling the 20" chrome 01-02 Lightning Replica rims. Does anyone have an update on this? They still aren't listed on their website. Last I heard they were supposed to...

I know a lot of you have done the grill mod to your L's. I am talking about getting the chrome wheel well molding and putting it on there. Well, my sister has a Harley Davidson F150 and I wanted to get her lower grill done up with that chrome. Problem is, I can't find the stuff anywhere...

I was sitting around, looking at the Gen III concept lightning and wondering what will make it to production (that is, if it ever does become production). I was looking at the 22"s, the 8" square exhaust tips, tonneau, roll pan, ram air hood, and couldn't help but hope the keep some stuff, get...

I am looking to add some polished parts to the engine bay to add to the overall look/performance. I had looked a different polished plenums and think I have decided to go with LFPs here (http://www.lightningforceperformance.com/catalog/productDetails.php?productID=1139) I already have a...

I saw the review of the Lightning on top gear awhile back (it's here if you havent seen it http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7897412747114105703&q=top+gear. Just to warn you, they didn't care for it much. My question is, has anyone seen an episode where they review the SRT-10? I...

I got a friend that has an SVTF and was looking to replace the stock grill. He also has the HID headlights that have the amber turn signal/driving lights in them. Because of this, he was looking at getting rid of the amber lights in the grill completely and replace it. We found the euro grill...

Took some pics of my truck today and I thought I would share them. The Harley truck in some of the pictures is my sisters. Our family bleeds ford blue :rockon: Anyway, I hope you enjoy. I tried to make them look as decent as I could in photoshop. I am a newb with it though, so don't...

Alright, I will be the first to admit that I am still a newb when it comes to racing. I have yet to take my truck out to the track, because honestly, I don't know how to start from the line yet. All of my tries have been from a dead stop. I have tried just slamming the gas down, obviously...

I just got some new clear corners from ebay. I went with the seller "Revotech" and got the corners in 3 days! I would recommend this seller over some of the other ones I have heard about. I must tell you though, the clips that the clear corners come with will not work with the factory...
