The last step of the oil sender reversion is to jumper the oil gauge resistor on the back of the cluster. The wire is long enough that the cluster does not need to be removed again to cut the wire, if someone wants to go back to the '87-95 configuration of the switch & resistor. . ...

Fitting the new t-case boot took a lot more time than expected. After removing the old one, it was apparent why it had been screwed back down - the lever wasn't welded right, so it was rubbing the plastic bezel, which had been cut away for more clearance. And the weld wasn't strong enough to survive bending the handle away, so it had to be re-welded correctly. But the bezel isn't designed to sit on top of the carpet & thick padding, so that had to be carefully trimmed away slowly, to avoid cutting too much. But eventually, it settled into place. . ...

Although the 3-screw automatic hub locks were washed in ATF as recommended by Ford & Warn, they didn't function. So they were soaked in solvent for a few days, disassembled, cleaned, reassembled, and they still don't function.IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it....

The factory oil cooler has been removed, and a connector, Standard PS60 pressure sender, and FL1A filter installed. Additionally, a jumper wire will be soldered to the back of the instrument cluster so the oil gauge actually works, reversing what Ford did in 1987.IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it. . ...
