    Seat Swap

    I don't think they would bolt up the same. Grab a tape measure and see what the spacing is on the bolts. Of course you could always weld it, measure everything: seat height with tracks, width shouldn't be a problem. Leave enough room for reclining? The carpeting is only held in by the trim...

    Seat Swap

    I don't think you'd be able to get anything to fit out of a Ranger. Maybe out of an expedition or something.

    1998 Explorer Sport 4 Door

    making that picture definitely motivated me to get this done. I'm in school getting my associates degree in welding. So, when i'm finished, this should be a piece of cake.

    1998 Explorer Sport 4 Door

    I know! After checking out some pictures of Rangers and Sports I've determined the doors will need heavy modding. The Ranger door would contact the wheel well so that part of the door would have to be trimmed down. Then the other concern i see is the rear glass shape is skewed. Not sure how the...

    Seat Swap

    The seats ride taller by maybe a half inch. It gives it more of a truck feel to me. Also, i had been riding with a broken, partially reclined seat for almost 3 years so i can't remember what the old seat vertical felt like. I like a little more upright posture than most. they feel great to me. I...

    1998 Explorer Sport 4 Door

    I'm looking to modify my Sport to have rear doors similar to a Ranger extended cab. Anyone know if anyone has done this yet? I have been checking the body styles and if i take the doors from a ranger they would have to be modified significantly. I'm willing to do all the work i need to but i'd...

    Seat Swap

    So, my driver recliner bolt (Ford recalled) broke because i never took it in for the recall. Because it broke several other things broke on the truck which Ford will not replace for free. *sad face* So, since i work at a lube shop, i took a tape measure to work with me to check the measurements...

    2004 heater control problem

    heh, forgot to update and say that i got it. It was the actuator. And because i didn't take apart the whole dash to get to it, it took me almost 2 hours to finish. Had to use fingertips with tape, sticky-side out, so that the socket wouldn't slip.

    Helix Throttlebody Spacer ?

    Helix Throttlebody Spacer ?

    Ha, i didn't even see the date on it. It's not my first tank, but it's not the 10th either. And i know most everyone frowns on them. I also don't see many people trying them out to see what happens. I'm still in my return policy so i can always send it back. I have no idea where a dyno is...

    Helix Throttlebody Spacer ?

    Figured i would try one of these so we could all see what the difference would be. Every time i fill up my tank i reset the trip so i can monitor my mileage. I average 244 or so for the 16-ish gallons before the Check Gage light comes on. After installing the TB spacer i made it to 275...

    2004 heater control problem

    Just got the actuator out of mine. I think the hardest part will be putting the new one back in. It was fingertips for the back screw on the beast. The part is $40 here at oreilly though.

    bench seat...in the front.

    Have they sent you any letters? If not you can go here http://www.internetautoguide.com/auto-recalls/09-int/1991/ford/explorer/index.html to see what they need to do. Go to the dealer and mention that you just got the truck.
