What's with the pink wires they use for everything on our trucks? I don't really want to blame the engineers, because it's probably the purchasing departments fault. They probably had a supplier with a surplus of pink wire, so they said, "Hey lets use it all on our light truck platform."

The reason why those bolts are different on one rear end vs. another is because the two design teams probably never talked to each other. They both sat in thier respective cubicals and did thier thing.

I'll never appreciate stupidity. I don't care what the competition does (but you're talking to the former owner of a high 12 sec NA 5.0 92 Mustang, 98 cobra, 99 F150 )

Why do cars cost so much? VanillaGorilla explains above.
