Hey guys, so my 5.0 is dead in my 96 Explorer Limited, and I was thinking about doin a swap myself. Can someone lead me in the right direction? How hard will this be? Any info would me SO appreciated. Thanks!!

I did some research and I know we can put 2nd gen rear view mirrors on the first gen. My question is, does anybody know or have an idea if the mounting studs and base of other gens (mainly 4th) have the same pattern/size?? I was planning on doing a swap with the 2nd gen mirrors with the heated...

Ok, I'm currently in the research phase and I've been looking up front end swap options for my '91. Idk if I'm doing the wrong search or if nobody has done it before, but I'm looking to swap or convert the front 4x4 with the suspension from a 2nd gen to my 1st gen. Like I said I've done some...

Does anyone know of anyone that has succesfully completed a swap like this?

I have found a great deal of info on this web site that I have compiled to take your V6 Ex from 2wd to 4wd . Note Info takin from http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85487&highlight=awd+control+trac Thanks to stadx2's Items needed: Mechanics: 4r55e or 5r55e 4x4 tail...

I made the transmission swap to the m50d 5 speed and kept the tranfer case. all mechanically is sound, but i cannot get the engine run right. it cuts out at about 2500 RPM and runs really louwsy and loss of power. I did: keep the engine hanress the same, wired CPP switch acording to wiring...

Hello Everyone, Ok here we go. I have a 95 Explorer 4X4 XLT 4.0 4r44e. I got this truck with a messed up transmission in it. After going from park you have to put it 1st. or 2nd. to get to move then after moving you can shift it to drive. No blinking OD light. It also has a 1-2 flare...

Over the last few days the A4LD on my 1992 has not been interested in shifting in the morning. And now, i felt my first slip/bang. The trans was freshened up (seals, etc.) at 104,000 but at 141,500, it looks like it needs work again. Sigh! Thinking over my options and since this is my DD, I...

So on craigslist there is a 1990 F150 4x4 that is being parted out. the man selling said he just had the engine rebuilt and wants to sell seperately but wants to get offers for it. question 1.. would this fit in my explorer? #2 how much should i pay?? says 50k on it but runs strong.

Alright, so my old transmission lasted 161,000 miles. At 161,000 miles, it started slipping on acceleration and not upshifting into gears. As I would drive on, it would lose the O/D Gear, then 10 miles later, the 3rd would go, and then it wouldn't drive at all. NOW.. I just picked up a...

alright gents, it seems that the 4.0 in my xlt is done. i would replace timing chains but it has 228000 and has served it's purpose. so it looks like i will be replacing the engine in the coming days. any shortcuts or advice would be greatly appreciated. i will be posting some pics on here for...

so i did my 5 speed swap and realised my ds from the auto dosent fit can i simply get a 5 speed yoke and put on my auto ds or do i have to find a whole 5 speed ds my truck is 4dr by the way

Hey everyone i am contemplating a 4.0 to v8 swap.. I have been reading up on it but i wanted to ask, Whats the best year for the 5.0 v8 to swap in? and whats the best trans for it? what should be a good price for the engine and trans? The local junk yard wants 550 a piece for the engine and...

:)hey guys - i have a 99 explorer sport 2wd and the rear axle is (from what ive read on here) a ford 8.8 and looking at my door code i have 3.29 open dif. i wheel the truck a bit and while i dont have the money for a 4wdswap until after school, i was thinking for $150 i could get the rear axle...

so i was wondering if a controltrac transfer case would be feasable on a 1st gen st? i know alot of you enjoy the 2wd setting but i really liked the auto setting for day to day use, especially in a city that gets only 2 seasons(hot and freezing). i imagine its as simple as pulling the T/C and...

Hi everyone. I am going to attempt to replace my 4.6 in my 02 explorer. Does anyone have experience replacing one before?? Do I need to take the trans out first?? Is there any tricks or tips you can share?? I bought a Haynes manual. And it says the trans needs removed. I'm not sure why this is...

I am so sick and tired of dealing with my 4.0/a4ld i dont know what to do. So heres the question is there a thread or can someone list out everything i would need to do it? Right know its sitting in our parking lot not being driven because of it. I can get the motor and trannie for 500$ a piece...

This is a purely hypothetical question because the reality is i will probable never have the time or money to do this but what the hell we can all still dream. If and when my v6 SOHC tires out and the fact that I havent built an engine since i was 16 I have given it some thought of building...

Ok so Im sick of fiddling with that stupid transmission, It takes forever to engage and it wont shift out of first when its cold unless i manually override it. I have heard you could swap a 700r4 transmission or a c5. If someone had a link to a write up with pictures, or tell me exactly what...

I have a 1993 Explorer XLT 4.0. I am wondering if I can put a 94 Explorer 4.0 in my 93, are the engines the same? Also, will the 94 4.0 fit the 93 trans for the 4.0?
