We are currently in Altoona and I am in need of some assistance and found you online. I have three noticeable issues that need attention and a 4th annoyance and a 5thnice to have.

1. Rear end diff is leaking at the front seal - from a 95 Ford Explorer 8.8 limitedslip
2. My steering is a little sloppy and want to check my front end. Ball joints are not totally bad but questionable and onebushing is ok but could use replacing from what I can tell.
3. The BBC does not want to stay cool in town. It was fine a few day ago but it is actually a new build and have gotten its break end sea legs at this point. It has a mechanical fan and wire for electric but can't get it to push. Jegs universal fan.
4. Header slap at the rear driver. Tried retorquing with no success. Plan on taking replacing header gasket at next stop. Round port head mans
5. For the wife - Started the ax but ran out of time. Unit is in compressor is on and belted condenser is own. Wiring, piping and charge is left. Haven't had time as of yet and she is a trooper.

I was leaving early to catch a place in Davenport but thought I would touch base before leaving.

Thanks and hope someone can help.

Go to motor medics at venue. They fix free of charge , but you need to bring or run after parts if needed. They rewired and installed new starter for me yesterday.

Without contact details, we were very limited in what we could do for him anyway !

Any word on next year's tour? Dates/location? Anyone else disappointed that no one showed up on the tour? Other than Lucky and briefly Rutledge. Thinking about one or two stops on Drag Week.
