    Few General Problems........

    And also just put in the clips for the front calipers. See if it deals with the rattling. And the tierods do not move.

    Its bleeding from the line. The rectangular piece that meets the caliper. But.. looks to be dripping off the spring.

    Few General Problems........

    Okay. Update. I have finished the rotor and caliper upgrades. Eventually even had all the brakes bled and had decent brakes for once. And with the luck that I am known to have, I noticed that my rear/passenger caliper is now leaking. Slowly... but still enough to still drain the Master Cylinder...

    Okay, will do. I'll keep you posted.

    Few General Problems........

    I did... And will later today. We already tried bleeding them. The pedal just wouldn't build up pressure to bleed the new calipers, and I have no idea why. I think what happened is that I let my brake fluid run out while swapping calipers. I just let it hang while I got the old out of the way...

    Few General Problems........

    Okay. All my parts came in earlier today, and I started immediately. Got the old off, put the new on, and proceeded to bleed my brakes.... And they won't build pressure :( Other than that... Tie Rods are solid and and it was just the joint that was replaced.

    and @1987stangman , the rack and pinion have been replaced already in the last year. Any ways of finding if it's bad already?

    Few General Problems........

    @stangr5oh , I did the tests. 12/6 were solid, but 3/9 had a bit of movement. I just ordered new inner and outer rods, as well as my calipers, rotors, and pads. Hopefully it helps. Lol.

    Okay. I'll do the tests. How do I check the bearings? And I've already replaced the pads. I was really shocked that someone let them get that bad. Lol. And yeah, the tires are the same on the front (Size, model, wear, etc.)

    Few General Problems........

    Okay. The warping is the first thing that came to mind. I had no idea about checking the ball joints and tie rods. It was actually the old ball joints that caused this damage to occur. Thanks for the tips on checking the rods/joints. I'm going to do that my next day off, but for the time being I...

    Engine Strange Knock/shake.

    I know... Late reply, but I have got the engine to stop jerking while in gear. It was the PCV and hose assymbly. It still does the knocking, but after getting my head out of my ass and asking a ASE-certified Ford mechanic, he said that there is no miss. He said it feels like there is something...

    Few General Problems........

    So I'm finally getting everything together for my lady, Lzzy. I recently corrected the jerking that was happening while cruising in gear. I assume that it was either the PCV that was bad, or it was my right-rear O2 Sensor (Reason being... I unhooked it right after I installed the new PCV. I...

    Replacing Rotors... Ran Into A Problem.

    Okay. That's what I did. Picked up a set of star sockets and hex bits for the bottom bolt. Think I'm going to just replace the pads because they look to be the problem... Not the rotor. Thanks @COramprat.

    Engine Strange Knock/shake.

    Haha, okay, thanks @Gearbanger 101 I'll run the seafoam. Thanks to you too @COramprat . As long as I know the issue's not terribly tragic... I'll get a new system when I can. (Month or two) Also going to check my sensors too. Thanks guys. Appreciate it.

    Engine Strange Knock/shake.

    I haven't yet done a tune-up. I know I should have when I got it, just in case, but I'm skiddish after what happened with my F-150. I'll do one as soon as possible. See if it helps. And how do you run seafoam?

    Engine Strange Knock/shake.

    Sorry for such a late reply @COramprat , it's just enough for me to notice a feel. It sounds like it runs fine. It's throwing a few codes... I'll post them. Lack of HO2S21 switches - Indicates rich Evaporative Emission System Control Valve (Low/No flow) O2 Heater Circuit (Bank 2, Sensor 1)...

    Replacing Rotors... Ran Into A Problem.

    I was wondering if anybody else has ran into this problem while trying to replace their rotors. I've done this multiple times on other makes, but when I got the wheel off Lzzy, I found that the calipers bolts were just weird. 1.) The top bolt head is completely covered by a rubber boot. I...

    Accessory drive noise, help

    I'm having the same problem on my '98. I had the squeaking noise coming form the front. I kind of figured it was the water pump, but to make sure I used WD-40 to check it. Sure enough... The squeaking stopped. Replaced it and started a few days after... Why?!!!!

    Engine Strange Knock/shake.

    Hey guys, first post. I've been having a little problem troubling me with my new '98 GT. She seems to be running a little hard or something. She has a slight vibration while idling in neutral. She also shakes a bit when I shut her off. Any ideas what could be wrong? Also... I know for sure she...
