This may seem like a stupid question. But can anybody tell me why ford or any other auto makers would mount the Alternators at the bottom of the engines so it can take a bath in what ever the tire slings at it. Now I will say I never had any problems with this setup yet. But It just sounds like...

I`ve heard SO much about Toyota 4 runners and Toyota trucks rolling. Plus My son nearly lost his life when his Toyota rolled and YES for no reason. No drinking nor drugs involved! I have 2 4x4 Toyota trucks and am wondering if there may be a for sure steering I can put under my trucks? They have...

MAZDA B-SERIES 4X4 PICKUPS RULE!!! doyou agree??

My 87 Bronco XLT 5.8 liter 4V H.O. went completely dead, everything, after a split second of the starter engaging. The battery showed full charge. I replaced the cylanoid, and now have headlights, heater fan, radio, etc. all working, battery fully charged, but turning the key to turn it over does...

I cleaned every connection, got starter tested, its ok. Still nothing when I turn the key, battery fully charged, all other electrical works. I couldn't get to the negative ground on block, so I bought a new negative cable and grounded it on the bolt on the emissions pump bracket. I am stumped...

Hi! Sorry for my lack of knowledge here, but I want to pick everybody's brains about this. I recently purchased a 2001 Rodeo V-6 Automatic and whenever I start it for the 1st time in a day it wants to die. If I step on the gas a couple times, it revs up to about 2000rpm then settles down a...

I'm trying to figure out a a way to get deeper into the desert and a 4x4 is it. ( Anza Borrego National Park in Southern California). I've never owned a 4x4 vehicle and I'm not even sure if the difference between that and an all-wheel drive vehicle. But less than that, I'm having a difficult...
