Geez! Yep I definitely will be buying off the Craigslist car lot

Well hopefully he will realize that, and that’s another reason I will never buy anything new lol.

I agree unfortunately I guess I’ll just have to keep buying cash cars lol Remember our explorers were 34,000 back in the day or at least mine was lol.

I would love to get to the point we’re I can do all of that!

That’s the thing I feel like these are an unsung “Toyota” I can’t put my thumb on it but they are certainly fun to drive and I love all the little clicks of the door handles and shifter knob!

Yea I would prefer a 2wd as well

That’s awesome I feel better!

Well if I have to repair the trans I might as well change out the timing chains

Ok awesome I’ll keep my eyes out!

You guys are awesome thank you! It’s a shame I got the crap ex lol 5r55e and a sohc lol but with the wisdom y’all have given me I will go look for another one after I enjoy this one for a bit also what’s the most reliable set up y’all would recommend to look for motor and trans set up wise.

Thank y’all!! Do you think I can do a swap over to a ohv engine?

I have the sohc v6 are those reliable?

Well for those of us trying to pay debt off it’s certainly nice!

Hey guys display took a crap as well as the lights all my other cab light work expect these ( changed the bulbs ) was wondering is anyone knew we’re I could find parts to rebuild this myself or offer any advise otherwise.

I know the kit came with all new star heads and springs as well as pads I adjusted they as far as they would go

Hello pit new parking brake pads on the explorer and they still aren’t engaging any advise or tips?

Thanks! Also is there a way to tighten the cable?
