Damn those are some beauties. I bet they cost a pretty penny. Are all Brembo 4 piston...are those 4 piston? I need brakes like that. Hey real quick to Troll...did you say Advance Adapters had the kit for the T5 behind the 4.0? I asked a while ago, but I am really serious about the swap now.

Coolers too Questions at bottom: Thank you everyone for the help. I went by Pep Boys (sells the Purilators) and they felt that it did need o rings, but the filter they had didn't have the o rings NOR the gasket. Makes me wonder about Pepboys and Purilator. They did give me the o rings. I...

I had to crank the filter bolt. It seems that the Purilator filter is thinner than the previous filter. I have looked at the dip stick, but I put fluid in and then measure. Since I have usually just filled it, there is always some fluid on the stick. I wanted to get an idea of how much...

This weekend I took on the task on changing my tranny fluid and filter. I really had to crank the bolt into the transmission to get the new Purolator filter to fit. I put the gasket on the pan once it was cleaned and I used some grease on the extreme edges to hold it in place. After...

Just a curiosity...why exactly did you start the new post? Also, since the topic was discussed I wanted to ask if anyone out there has tried using a Dana 44 IFS? I know Currie makes a shortened one, but that is probably more expensive then fabbing everything for the straight 44. Also, OKnut's...

Do you know if the wires are already in place for the changer? Also, will the CD/tape deck plug into the harness that was used for a CD deck alone? I had similar questions and wanted to see who answered to this. If I find anyhting out I will let you know. If you can, take pictures of the...

I love that video. I watch it at least once a day. Look at the front end raise. That engine in the Zimmerman Explorer or Rick's Explorer would be awesome. No offense to you other guys with nice Explorer's out there, but I think these two are some of the best on the site. Everything else...

More information...thanks for the information you offered. I knew what was offered in the Explorer, but I did not know what heads were in the Navigator and Expedition. I thought that they were different, because of the performance. What do you guys thing about OHCs? The OHV will be gone...

Originally posted by 2001ExpSport: Matt Matt, do you know or does anyone know how these heads compare to the Cobra's heads (non-R)? Also, trucks and the Expeditions are SOHC aren't they? Is the Cobra R that similar (or even the same) to the Navigator's engine? One final question for Matt...

Last time I checked it seemed that a few people on this site were into modifying their Explorer's. Let's just hope Ford produces it. Oh no...so they throw in a 4.6. The Mustang after-market will easily take care of that, and those that want to go crazy can bore it, stroke it, and throw on...

I like to dream. In reality, the world is turning to OHCs. That's a nightmare. P.S. Check Rick's new posted information about SEMA. Apparently they had the "Urban Explorer" there. I have not read about, I just saw it. [Edited by Tate Myrick on 11-06-2000 at 04:10 PM]

New Saleens Pinch me...a stroked 351 running nitrous and a super charger. Maybe I am old school, but I like the OHVs, even if they do come out with TOHC. It always seems that any OHC takes time to develop the HP and torque. I like it from 500 RPM up. My thought and dreams. Maybe Saleen...

Nice find FlyAU. That is one clean looking Explorer. Throw Troll's engine in (maybe even a stroked 351) and that would be one awesome ride. I recently saw the new 4 door Explorer at my local car show. Since they have gone with the IRS they might as well make it look like a sleak vehicle.

Blood and Four Hours As I mentioned earlier...you are lucky. Don't worry about this project. It is incredibly easier on the Ranger. The Explorer's negative lead bolts to the frame and block. If I remember correctly, the Ranger's only bolts to the frame and the engine is grounded somewhere...

You are lucky you are changing these cables in a Ranger. My friend had a Ranger and I noticed his was definately easier to install. The inner fenders on the Rnager are smaller. One suggestion I have; use the right cables. My friend used some that were not a complete set, and only replaced a...

Sports Cars and Exotics Arguable none of the cars from Europe are their original sports car or exotic car. From Porsche to Ferrari, they are all modified so they won't pollute. The Defender 90 is no longer sold, because this was either impossible or they could not figure out how to get air...

Look at everything. Not that you can totally tell, but is it possible that it is in Europe or some other country. If this is the case it might be a prototype or the actual vehicle that we will never see. Just a thought. Did you know that Dodge still makes those two door full size Ram...

Are you running Ranchos now? Just curious.

DAMN...that is an awesome ride. I bet it is incredible to drive. Have you had any competition? I would love to pull up to some vehicles and rip their doors off. I don't think I could actually have that Explorer. I know the officers in my area would get to know me. Let us know how the Mark...

Fuel Tank I have heard that the float assembly is almost as much as the float assembly and the fuel tank together. I don't know if this is generally ture, or if it is even true for the Explorer. I have 125,000 and mine went out. Parked itself on E. A few days it revived itself, but it still...

Smog While I am at it, I guess I will ask one more question. I believe you mentioned that some of the best swaps are engines from 89-93 Mustangs. I might be mistaken, but I thought that some smog laws stated that the engine had to be the vehicle year or newer. Have you checked into Smog laws...

What about the cooling system? What kind of radiator are you using and are you going to use an electric fan? Let us know how the project goes.

Emergency Brake I think people interpret the term incorrectly. The "emergency brake" is not to be used in an emergency braking situation. The emergency brake will lock the back tires if enough force is applied. The e-brake uses a manual method to apply the rear brakes only, and that is why...
