    Anyone into scenario?

    I've been paintballing for years, pretty much most weekends, as a good way to wind down after a long weeks work. Being ex army, I quickly found a liking for scenario/milsim paintball. My latest toys fitted with e grips and my cyclone feeds will be here Saturday, allowing a respectable 20balls...

    New problem!

    Ok folks, I have a new problem that I'm looking for a bit of advise about. Either my front diff is binding and on its way out, or I am stuck in 4wd, even though the light goes on/off as normal on the dash. It seems just like its in 4wd, the steering binds at either lock and it makes all the...

    lift shackles

    Well, my lift shackles arrived today and I got em fitted. I have to say, I'm a little disappointed! NOT with the shackles, the quality of them is nothing short of amazing! Seriously heavy duty and fabricated to perfection. But I was expecting more of a result, they don't seem to have lifted the...

    Lower exterior trim

    Finally got around to starting the colour coding, I hate 2 tone! Just the lower doors and the chrome bumpers to do now. The arch flares etc were easier to remove than I thought! Better than the grey they were. Then when summer finally arrives, they're being removed all together and all the...

    Latest Problem

    My latest problem, albeit fairly minor, it actually got warm enough today, to not need the heaters blowing warm air. Problem is, I spun the dial round to cold ........ still get hot air. Only way to not cook with the windows closed, is to set it to OFF, but then things get steamy! Now, if i...

    Exhaust issues.

    Somehow, I've managed to snap the rear pipe off my exhaust, it is still attached to its hanger and just swings around! I have found a new backbox, but refuse to pay £150 for it! So, I am going to Repair mine with replacement pipe, but can't decide if I should cut out the rear box altogether and...

    OOM12 kit

    Hi, does anyone know where I can get an OOM12 kit from in the uk? I've just replaced the rear tensioner and want to do the front, as a precaution. I have sent Justin a message on ebay twice now, as he supplied the last kit for my last explorer, but am not getting a response from him at all. I...

    Fog/Driving lights

    Finally got myself another explorer, so now i'm sorting all the little issues. This problem is, my front fog/driving lights come on if I flash full beam, but not if I push the stick back to have full beam on permanently. Does anyone have any idea why this might be and how to solve it? Thanks

    Towbar wiring.

    I have fitted my towbar to my 98 explorer and wired up fine, but, when i brake, my indicators come on too. I understand why, as the American model has flashing brake lights for indicators or something similar, but, is there any way to stop this happening on my u.k car?

    No hazard lights

    I've still got no hazard lights, my indicators work fine. I can't help thinking its something to do with the factory fit alarm, as i have no light flash when i arm or disarm, and no sound from it either. I've checked all fuses that i can see as relevant and they're all ok, i've looked in the...
