First post after several years on here.
Need to replace my '96 Explorer XLT 4WD as transmission going out and not worth spending $1,400+ which is more than I paid for it three years ago for $1,200.
Off Craig's List
2000 Ford Explorer 4x4 - $1999
Ford explorer 2000, with six-cylinder engine, and standard transmission, 4x4, the truck is in very good condition, both inside and outside, air conditioning, radio.

Don't know mileage or if inspection current.
Correction: 143,000 miles and dealer will get it inspected. Said I could bring my own mechanic if I wanted, so likely no outstanding discoverable problems.
Will take my OBC tester to check for any engine codes. Not much can go wrong with standard tranny and not expensive to replace clutch pads.
Anything I need to be wary of?
I'll get around telling my '96 Explorer experiences and solutions with pictures - Replacing fuel pump was...an experience!
Why did this preview in BOLD font? Sorry if it did.
