I'm going to be pulling both front and rear driveshafts out of my 97 5.0L AWD X to get balanced and was wondering how I could determine if the AWD Transfer Case Chain was worn. The X has 120k miles. Would be a good time to do any repairs. Thanks - Gerald

Good News! Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended? Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or synagogue will get them to Heaven.

I am new to the group and am unsure if this question has been asked before. If it has, please accept my apologies in advance and direct me to the previous thread on this topic. I used the remote to open the rear lift gate on my Explorer last night. While opening it, I noticed a crack about 1/8 in....

The clutch seized on my AC compressor so I've picked up a new/reman from the parts house. Questions: 1) Tag on new compressor says is shipped with "minimal" oil. What kind of, how much and where should oil be added? 2) Got a new "dryer" at the same time but see no way to "break" the old one out....

Proud owner of a 99 XLT. I just purchased the keyless entry add-on package. (not the one that is wired) Anyways, You are supposed to stick it to where you want using the double sided super tape it comes with (don't touch your finger to it...took my a while to get it off!) I placed it in the...

Have a 92 Explorer with the electric shift. Obviously there is no Ford provided selectable neutral so I can disengage both drive shafts for towing behind an RV. I know there is a dealer option for the '96 and newer transfer cases that does allow disengagement of both drive shafts. I expected...

Anyone know of a place that sells the center brake lamp socket assembly online? I've been running on one light (the incorrect, dim one at that) for a number of years now, because I just can't bring myself to spend $120 for a piece of plastic. Has anyone been able to do anything with LEDs? Now...

I've been having some problems with my 2000 explorer (V6-XLT model). It has trouble starting sometimes. Tonight when I got ready to leave work, it started for about 5 seconds, idled rough, and then cut off. Then it wouldn't start at all after about 4 tries. I went back into the office to call...

Hi everybody, I live in South California and we've been getting a lot of rain lately (at least WE think it's a lot) so I've been driving through some deep mud lately. When driving through the mud my Explorer (I have a '91 and my wife drives a '92EB) sometimes the car goes sideways, especially if...

I got the recall done on my explorer yesterday for the rear glass. It doesn't look to me like they have done anything to fix the problem with the brackets for the strut rotating and the strut popping off? Has anyone else had this done? I thought they were installing some kind of redesigned...

Hi, I installed a new (rebuilt) electric shift motor on the transfer case. It still won't work. The module in back does click when I push the dash button. Is it possible that I need to adjust the sensor position on the motor by loosening the three screws and rotating the back plate on the gear...

I have a 2000 Explorer. I'd like to install a 12 volt power outlet near the far rear, similar to a cigarette lighter outlet. Is there already a source of 12 volts in that area, not dependent on lights or rear wiper being on? Any ideas appreciated. -- ---------- CWLee Former slayer of dragons;...

I've done some research but can not get a straight answer. Does anyone know?

Can anyone tell me what would make a sound like a jet turbine winding up on my '01 4.0L Sport Trac? It started as I was leaving a stop light and increased in pitch as I accelerated. When I let off of the gas, the pitch stayed the same until I was almost stopped, then the noise stopped just like I'd...

I have a 91 explorer (4x4 of course). Have had it for about a year did some minor work to it, installed aftermarket stereo, changed passenger front window motor, driver rear window cable assembly -- which was all the basic work it needed. I finally got to take it off road (in stock condition)...
