New here and just a standard Ford owner of a BA wagon and a BF XR6 ute.
Need the Forum for general repair tips.
Spent 3 hours trying to trouble shoot a jammed drivers seat on the XR6 ute. Would not slide forward. Was within 10 minutes of removing the whole seat and tracks... then I spotted it... the 50c coin wedged at the left hand rear track ! Had to manufacture a 'hooked' stiff wire to yank it out.
BEWARE 50c pieces if you have the XR6 UTE !

Does anyone know of any tonneau aftermarket supports that will stop the inevitable pooling of rainwater fwd and aft of the transverse supports.

XR6 ute Auto Trans cable ball and socket... What genious designed this ?? A nylon socket ! Wired it up to get going with cable ties and then picture framing wire.
Final fix .. drilled out the ball and put a bolt and washers through it. Probably cheaper in the manufacturing than the stupid ball and nylon socket.

XR6 ute light stalk .. internal wiring frayed. Hardly surprising .. seems to have been manufactured to save 2mm of additional micro wiring in the stalk. Pulled apart 'tiny'extra wire soldered in other wise $200 for new stalk,


BA wagon .. spend my life hitting the right rear panel to get the right rear brake light working !
