I am looking for some ford parts from the local pick-n-pull... namely EATC components from a crown vic (01+)

the fresno yard has 5...

I have gotten accustomed to having creature comforts and wanted to add some to my Ford Diesel pickup that I just got...

Wanna make a picknpull run for me?

I can try. let me know what yards you are looking at and what it is you need. Heard a thing on the radio that said a couple yards have 50% off parts this weekend..

There is only one pick-n-pull in fresno...

And here is basically what I am looking for:
First the easy parts:

EATC Panel
399967

EATC Vac Harness:
399969

Outside air temp with pigtail (behind grill somewhere):
399971

Blower motor Controller with pigtail (under where the heater hoses goes in):
399970


Now the harder parts that will likely require this:

EATC Blend door actuator (the one that says ATC not MAN):

Harness:
399968

Interior Temp sensor and pigtail (not really sure where this one is):

White tube thing that goes back to the outer box (shown attached to underhood box):

Sunload sensor (might be able to get to this without taking out dash):
http://www.darkstarmediallc.com/ford/sunload2-vi.jpg

IAT Tube Turnout in heater box:

Now... getting the dash out is not as hard as it looks but it is certainly not easy (although I have never done it)... it is very unitized...

It is said to take about an hour... if you don't want to that is fine... the easy stuff can just come out with some screw drivers and some wire cutters...

Still willing to help? :) There are just no pick n pulls here and all this stuff is normally less than $50-$60 all together at a pick-n-pull...

EDT: and although most years of crown vic had a similar looking ATC control only the 01+ will work for me... and not all crown vics had EATC... some had the 3 basic rotary dials...

Richard, Wil try to make it there tomorrow. Pretty swamped today with stuff. I checked pick and pulls website and it says they have 2 2001 crown vics a couple 03 and 04's. Hopefully the 01's have the parts you want. Will let you know.
