yes u meant with pistons, should've stated that for you! thanks


Well, I can tell you that the Gasket sets from Ford are $498.00. I am sure that you can buy after market engine rebuild kits elsewhere that will be MUCH cheaper.
You could more than likely pick up a good second hand motor for about $400.00.

Sorry I can't help further.

From 1993 onwards, the V8 ED/EF/EL uses the same compressor, the earlier ones are different. More than likely the difference is fittings for the A/C hoses. Unfortunately we don't carry the compressor and I cannot find any info on the sizes or anything.

I don't suppose Ford do individual parts for the EF/L Instrument clusters? I need a Smartlock Jewel. Funny LED thing that makes the smartlock light flash.

G'day Papa Smurf
Can you tell me what type of oil seals are on the timing cover where the idler bolts go through?
Are these available aftermarket or only from Ford? Also do yo have an exploded view or the parts?
Cheers

hi papa LOL
got told to try you on this one from a question i asked in brakes and driveline
ford territory rear shockers have buggered top rubbers, are they easy to replace, they look simple, maybe pressed in, does anyone know what the rubbers are worth and what new shockers are worth
i also have a exhaust leak somewhere in between the cat and the o gasket to the inlet manifold
its covered with heat shield, is there a clamp under it??
double thanks
