    Transmission adjustments...

    Well, I've just finished rebuilding and re-installing the A4LD in my 92 X, and everything is working great! Not too bad for my first A4LD rebuild... Anyhow, I was curious about adjusting the vacuumm modulator and TV cable. The Transgo shift kit I used gave a suggestion about adjusting the...

    A4LD and 4R55E...differences -- TC Noise -- Man Hubs...

    Hey all--a few questions I've read in quite a few places that the 4R55E is mechanically the same as a A4LD...other than the 4R55E being electronic. Now, if this is true, would it be possible to take the valve body assembly off of an A4LD and bolt it up to an 4R55E and put the 4R55E in a 92...

    31" tires, 3.27 gears, 2 inch lift...

    A couple of questions for you guys... I'm installing a 2 inch lift (shackles/F150 coil seats). I have 3.27 gears. I want to run 31x10.5x15 tires. I'm pretty sure these tires will be kinda big for the stock X wheels, so I'm planning on getting a set of 15x8 steel chrome wheels. My...

    92 Ex won't idle high (warm up) when cold...

    Cheap oil pressure sender!!

    For those wanting to make their "idiot light gauge" become a real gauge for cheap, check this out. I went to Autozone, bought a Niehoff OP24761 ($5.99), removed my old oil press switch, installed this sender, and soildered a wire across the resistor in the cluster. Now I have a fully working...

    A4LD transmission repair...

    I bought my other X, a 92 with 128k miles for $500. It had a problem going into gear, staying in gear, no OD, leaks, and shifting weird. I don't have the cash to rebuild now, so I decided to pull it to fix the leaks. I pulled it, replaced the front seal, crankshaft spacer (it was...

    92 X auto trans problem...

    Well, after driving my 91 XL 4 door 5 speed for some time, I must say I like the Explorers. But, I want a nicer looking one...with less rust than my 91. I found one for sale, $500, clean, 128k, lifter tick, little rust (dog legs only), and an auto trans problem. He said when he shifts...

    Here's a werid one...

    Ok, so after much work I got my Explorer to stop with the temp gauge fluctuating thing. It's much better now. But there is a werid thing it does every once and a while... It will happen either after driving, or after shutdown. What happens is there will be a knock or thud of some sort...
