yeah, I hear you guys on the whole sitting part but I myself have been guilty of that. I had a ranger and a civic and two mustangs I let sit just because I liked having them but never really drove them....then the wife came along and it was time to sell them lol. basically, while the...

had no idea converting to 4wd was as easy as this on the 95-01 models. does this apply only to the 4.0 or can be done with the 5.0 as well? man I've been away from this site for too long lol.

been wanting to get another after selling my 98 mountie a couple years ago. found one locally after months of looking that is a 2nd owner that has just sat a couple years as the owners have other cars and now they are downsizing. supposedly only has 200 miles on it since the transmission was...

sure you didnt just blow the head gasket versus blew a piston or rings?? 2.3t crowd blows them all the time, especially the 8993 gasket. you could have been running low on coolant and overheated and not known it. my old 93 2.3 ranger always read fine on the coolant gauge and the radiator...

I know I'm not new to the site but its been a while since I've been on here and I know questions get answered in this section lol. anyway, in the past I've had a 91 4x4 explorer and a 2wd 98 mountaineer. I sold the mountaineer after getting stuck at low tide on a boat ramp. I got an 06...

cool found a D4 rearend at the u-pull and going to grab it this weekend. kind of interesting though that the other 4x4 91-94 out there right next to the one with the D4 had an open rear diff...axle code was 41... you happen to know the size of the u-bolt nuts and such for removal puposes...

are the limited slip rearends in the 91-94 explorers 31 spline??

http://www.explorerforum.com/ntrprize/Axle.htm also, the ad pop-up on that page is uber annoying as it covers the table's legend...and no I cant use a pop-up blocker as I'm at work. anyway, whats the difference between the D4 and L73 rearends? both are limited slip 3.73 rearends. one...

I think I know how I'll do that in my head lol. oh and yeah, I'm really glad we had to go to atlanta to help my fiance's sister move...I stopped by harbor freight and picked up the balljoint 3-1 set for $25 and it was worth it's weight in gold. I just simply beat on the old joints with a...

dont tell me I have to seperate the inner/outer in order to get the boot out?? seems like I'll be spray painting some threads to mark some places lol.

that is pretty much what I was thinking of doing except now that I have both inner and outer tierod replacements WITH nuts...I'm just gonna pull the old assembly off as a set and then put the new ones together as a set and match the lengths before tossing it back on so I can get it nice and...

ok, inner tie rods, it's dark outside and cold so I'm wussing out on going out there and looking at the rack... do I need to buy new rack boots and wormgear clamps to replace these or are the boots able to pop off easy so I can replace these??

if it helps they are only about 10 or so inches long lol...and my mountie is 2wd;)

ok, I got the kit today and its better than expected AND the seller has awesome communication. The parts look pretty damn good AND they have grease fittings on them as a bonus and are cheaper by $20 shipped than the other kit I was shown. so for $160 shipped from canada, I cant complain!! I...

anyone tried this kit?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-01-MOUNTAINEER-Upper-Control-Arm-Ball-Joint-Tie-Rod_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33583QQihZ001QQitemZ110224562971QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW I'm unbelievably strapped for cash and this gives me EVERYTHING in one package. It doesnt bother...

will 91-94 explorer shocks fit my 98 mountaineer?? budget is really tight right now and my 98 mountie has 189k on it and one of the factory shocks blew out the other day so now it's got a gangsta lean to it haha. we have two 91-94 explorers in the yard with what look to be basically brand...

dad got a 92 explorer in for the crusher and like all the kindly old explorers that come through, I gave it a once over. noticed it had a class 3 hitch on it which I dont have for my 98 mountaineer.... do they interchange or would I have to cut/weld it to fit??

the rear seats in my 98 mountaineer dont recline either as far as I can tell so it'll all be good.:thumbsup:

sweet! they both are 4door :thumbsup:

my grey pleather rear seat in my 98 mountaineer is torn from the babyseat being used in it. I found a 93 explorer with the grey pleather interior and the back seat looks pretty much identical from mine but I dont want to pay the money the yard wants for it only to find that they dont...

I dont remember the older type 302/5.0's having torqe/yield headbolts but who knows what ford has revised on these newer engines. My 98 5.0 mountie puked antifreeze everywhere finally last night after a long slow leak and just in case its the front portion of the head gasket on the driver...

are the head bolts on my 98 5.0 mountie torque to yield or are they still like the older 302's where you can re-use them??

I sorta popped my stock 8" sub in my 98 mountie when I had the cover off while doing some custom work over in there and my cordless drill fell over and went through the cone lol. I'm wondering what the specs are on the factory sub amp?? is it 4 or 8ohm load and what the rms wattage is...

it doesnt have a tcase, not 4wd :p oh and I have rented a tow dolly from uhaul in the past with this vehicle as the tow vehicle. I was towing a 99 escort across town though so that might be the difference??
