    2005 Explorer with a front end noise.

    More than likely it's the bushing. I had the same problem going slow over speed bumps. Changed the front and rear swaybars with a full Eibach kit w/urethane bushings. Sound never came back....good luck!

    First Gen Jet Chip???

    Just doing some research, i heard it is best to just get a flash tuner. The problem I hear with the jet chips is that they are a piggy back chips (plugs into your ECU) and if not completely installed correctly, you could have intermittent connection problems. I thought about a Jet Chip, but...

    HOW Many Horses in a 4.6L

    Headers and Throttle body are my last two bold on mods. Can you tell me exactly what/where to get when it comes to the cams and stall converter. I am very really good vehicle knowledge, but I haven't ventured into interal parts yet. If you can tell me everything I need to buy for the...

    2002 Explorer front shudder/growling

    Thanks man, after doing some research I figured that would work. When I pick upi my Explorer when I get to the states that is the first thing I am going to do. I am going with Royal Purple 75W-140 that already has friction modifier in it. I might just throw in another 2 oz of friction...

    HOW Many Horses in a 4.6L

    One more question guys, for the Stage 2 Cams, it states that I need 3.55 or steeper rear gears. My stock 3.73 gears are considered steeper right? Trying to learn here! Also it says that I need a 2000 plus stall speed converter. Anyone have any idea where I can get one of those??

    HOW Many Horses in a 4.6L

    Hello, I am trying to figure out approximately how many horses I have in my SUV. I have the '02 4.6L V*. Now I know it is rated stock @ 239hp. Is that to the wheels? If not, how many horses is it to the wheels? Also, I have aftermarket upgrades such as Steeda Underdrive Pulleys, MAC...

    2002 Explorer front shudder/growling

    It's a thread somewhere on here that talks about it possibly being the clutch packs in the rear differential slipping. I have a small case of this and am also tryint to find some info on it. I am 14,000 miles overdue (supposed to change every 60,000 and I am @ 73,500) in changing my...

    How much diff lube do I get?? What brand to get...? Rearend whine/roar....

    You know what, I think I do have a little of that clutch pack slippage thing I heard mentioned on here. Could that be from 13,000 miles of overdue differential fluid change. Just wondering when I do this complete Royal Purple fluid change if it will fix it??? Other than that, that is the only...

    How much diff lube do I get?? What brand to get...? Rearend whine/roar....

    Cool thanks, i figured so since I take really good care of my 02, but I just needed a second opinion!

    How much diff lube do I get?? What brand to get...? Rearend whine/roar....

    Do you think I will be safe in not changing my differential fluids until I get settled @ my next base?? I leave Germany on the 12th of Aug, and the truck should already be in country since I am shipping it over a month before I leave. I am just a little concerned about the 2 hour drive from...
