- 2000 Explorer XLT
I did i really did...
I know many POSSIBLE reasons now..
Wheel bearings, transfer case problem, (Which im unsure)...
I bought this truck without any axels in the front.
The ends were installed to keep leaks and bad bearings from happening.
I JUST installed NEW complete CV axels.
I began to roll out of the garage and I was all excited to go driving, but..
NOOOoOooOoOoooooo..
I cant do this.
It's too loud.
SOMETHINGS wrong.
In the searches, i read that...
The CV joints are dry..
It cant be the axels are "dry" they were pre-assembled, ready to go.
Also I heard that the transfer case shouldn't be run without axels becuase that will slip the case so bad that it will grind itself to a pulp.
Okay, is that TRUE for a 2000 Explorer XLT?!!
What about a Range Shifter?
(I dont have controls for 4WD, its AWD)
Does this still apply?
I would LOVE to SPEAK with a knowledgeable person tonight.
I can give my number or you can give me yours in a PM.
Can anyone help me before i jsut revert this to axel ends and give up?
I can and will put in a transfer case if i must.
i Just need to know what to do....
