I had the same issue. Sounded like TCASE, pulled out my front driveshaft, the cv joint on it is failing.

Bump, I would like to know this too as mine does it too...

nearly 232k miles. orig 4r55e trans, tcase needs rear output shaft rebuilt, and need to rebuild frontend.

Do yourself a favor and get the Motorcraft plug's. Ford's are finicky, mine wouldn't even fire on three cylinders with NGK's.

Yup. My upper driver side ball joint clunks at full lock and pulling outta my driveway.

Sick I'd be all over these if I wasn't selling my rig :(

Dozens of sensors change how the motor runs and adjusts an automatic transmission shift points.

Anyone? It's on a 4WD with the 4.0L OHV motor.

Do I need any special tools? What would be the best way to make room for pulling the oil pan? Remove front diff or lift motor?? Thanks... I know so far I'll need an oil pan gasket, timing cover gasket, and water pump gasket.

Last tune up? Run a check on your MAF and TPS (threads posted on here)

Well, I said I had done the driver's door handle... I had it painted and everything..,. Finally got it installed tonight!!! Before... Before I replaced it was broken in half completely and only a friend and I knew how to open it, lol.

When was the last time it had a tuneup?

I'd stick with the OHV due to the simple-ness of a traditional motor.

No idea. Mine does it too, valvetrain noise. Poor supply of oil in the head to the lifters is what causes it.

18-22 if you don't got a leadfoot. i rarely use 4wd on mine unless i'm off road. mine's got 227k on the original 4.0l ohv v6, slight lifter tick but that's it!

I wouldn't do it running over 500w.... Explorer roofs are not built strong...

SOmething's messed up... I just got 22mpg in my craptastic one with a failing trans lol

Thank you!!!

Check for vacum leaks. IAC.

Mass confusion right now... EEC-IV, 1995 Explorer, transition year, door code is T for the trans. However, I've seen in multiple areas it's either a A4LD or 4R55E or something... Is there a tag or something on the trans I can find out there?

Sounds like valvetrain noise.. Mine's the same way, it's caused from poor oil supply in the valvetrain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Cologne_V6_engine#4.0

Something just doesn't feel like it's there... 4.0L V6 OHV, 225k miles, Motorcraft plugs gapped @ 0.050", Federal plug wires iirc, new fuel filter, need to change air filter, new MAF 3 months ago (reman from Autozone), and slightly cleaned IAC... Idle seems to have a slight lope to it also...

Prime the pump multiple times... When I did my fuel filter, i was cranking it for 30 seconds before it finally ran. Do NOT run it for 30 seconds straight, run the starter in 5-10 second intervals or you'll fry it. Make sure the fuel filter is installed properly too

Yup. Mine's chugging along at 225k, needs a trans, back doors don't open from inside, something is screwed up with one of the sensors on the motor. LOVE IT!!!
