Flashing O/D Light on 96 Explorer by
netsurfca
I had the same thing happen on mine O/D light on and off. I would suggest
changing the transmission fluid. As it turns out, when the fluid heated
up, dirt was tripping the O/D sensor. That same dirt ended up fouling the
whole transmission which I had to replace.

2002 Trailer hitch by
Recoil Rob
My 2002 XLT came with a Class II, 1-1/4" receiver hitch. I'd like to
replace it with a Class III, 2" hitch.
Is it a simple matter of unbolting the original and bolting on the new
one or is there some welding to contend with?
Thanks, Rob

Spark plug replacement on 91 by
DAVMO
Replaced the spark plugs last night. That right rear plug is a bitch to get
at. The original plugs still fired, but after 14 years it didn't seem like
a bad idea to switch. The gap had grown to about .075, somewhat over spec.
I'm hoping to gain a little better gas mileage with the...

Volume control for JBL radio by
radman123
I came up with a fix for this problem. Once you get into the radio and get
the volume control switch out, you can carefully cut the melted plastic
rivits off, leaving enough to re-melt to close it back. There is a small
white nylon plastic slider inside the mechanism that is the problem. ...

shocks/struts by
Derek
Just had my 97 Explorer XLT (135k miles) in the shop and they told me I
needed
new struts on the front and new shocks on the rear. What is the difference
between
shocks and struts and why does the front need one and the rear the other?
Thank you.

I was wondering what the washboard effect is, could someone explain it to
me. I too have a 2003 explorer 4.0 V6, so I was wondering what it...

Looking for directions to service front hubs (1994 4x4) by
Chris
Hello everyone,
It has been determined that my front left hub is not engaging, so I'm not
getting power to the front wheels in 4 wheel drive.
Quick check - since my front axle is not a limited-slip axle, does it make
sense that as the front left hub isn't engaging (but the driveshaft...

Those go-roundy-roundy things in the front (4WD) by
Gordon S. Hlavenka
I've heard them called "front U-joints" and I've heard them called
"Constant Velocity (CV) joints". Which is the proper term?
I know in FWD vehicles they're called CV joints, but I don't know why;
it seems to me their velocity should change as the vehicle speed
changes. Same for 4WD.
