Yes they are, more people that I see use the 4406 when going from the awd tc to a selectable tc, some people also replace the control trac tc with it. I personally want to replace my control trac tc with a transfer case from an older explorer or ranger with a manual shifting tc. My reason is...

From what I understand and the research I have done, most if not all transfer cases from Ford shares the same bolt pattern and spline count. So yes a manual shifting tc for an older explorer or ranger will fit. The only problems you may run into is how strong (or weak) the tc will be behind the...

Well I have a '97 XLT with a mild TT and cheap shackles from a local auto parts store and I can fit 31x10.50x15 without rubbing, I plan to do a full TT with aaf and shackles (not the cheap shackles) when upgrade to 32x10.50x15. you could do what I'm doing but you may need to clearance the...

You are the only one that I have come across with the same color set up as mine and even the same year but I have the ohv 4.0.

I have a '97 4door with the KN paint code (dark lapis metallic) but mine also have the interior color code JV (J-cloth-premium bucket cirrus, V-lapis) and my tape stripe code is B (B-amethyst-blue) and I got it from the original owner for free because he thought the transmission was going out...

This may be an old thread but I have a '97 4 door blue with blue interior. The paint code is KN which is an uncommon color Dark Lapis Metallic. And the interior is JV.

I'm in the process of getting a '94 explorer for $200, don't know much about it except it had the front tranny pump seal go out on it. Long story short I want to take my time and build the motor in it. I have tossed around the turbo idea for a long time, but just started thinking about high...

I do know you were talking about putting the TTB in a 2nd gen frame but from the research I have done the frame body mounts on a 1st gen frame will line up with the body mounts on a 2nd gen body but the very front radiator core support mounts. The mounts are wider on the 2nd gen body then the...

I wouldn't have a problem with it.:)

Ya wishing for a day without rain in the spring in Oregon is like trying to train a cat to do tricks, very rare. A good rainy day would make for fun in the mudd.:exp:

A mini meet up does sound interesting and could be fun. We could try to meet up in the spring if we can get a nice day without rain.

Is there any ORP in Oregon, Growing up Ive only wheeled up old logging roads. Just want a good wheeling spot to take the family.

May be a transplant but a native Oregonian. Idanha is only 45 minutes away from Stayton.

I know this is an old thread but I live in Stayton, Or. But from Idanha/Detroit area.

This may sound odd but, since the 4.0 ohv v6 is a roller cam, how are the lifters retained? Ive seen rebuilds of other roller engines and there lifters are retained by a link bar or the "dogbones". I know my way around an engine but haven't been inside a 4.0 ohv (1997 with 250,000+ miles on...
