Greetings, I was wondering what the advantages might be to buying a whole set of dedicated swivel sockets instead of just using universal joint adapters to get to those hard-to-reach spots. I've used universal joints for years with success, but I'

Heat shield rattle is usually more clangy than that. Could be the matrix inside the cat is failing? Doesn't sound like transmission noise to me.

Replaced my keyboard/mouse combo. The mousewheel was giving me some issues and the keyboard was pretty beat up. This is my first post with the new one.

Someone actually stole my non-locking gas cap several months ago. I never buy aftermarket parts when Motorcraft parts are available. "Do it once and do it right." I went to the dealer and got a locking Motorcraft cap for $47.33. Part #7w7

I got it. There was another connector of the same style at the horn location, but not plugged into anything. I just took the connecter that was on the horn off, plugged this one in, and presto - I have a working horn. Thanks for the help. Greg

Turns out it didn't work... I'm a little stump as to what it could be. I'm thinking it could be the aftermarket alarm. Any thoughts?
