Does anyone have any experience with MOVE off road bumpers? Pics would be great.

Hello! I am trying to find replacement part numbers for my 1993 Ford Explorer 4.0l. I need a Harmonic balancer bolt and the Automatic flexplate bolts. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I know there has to be a thread out there but, I can't find any! I'm looking for aftermarket wheel ideas for my first gen Explorer. Second gen and ranger pics welcome. Please post details, size, etc..

Featuring a cool First gen racing and jumping! Enjoy.

Hello, I'm a long time owner of a 93 ex. But never towed with it! Show me pictures of your ex towing a trailer and specs please! Thanks.

I just thought I would share some of my recent adventures with my Explorer since I finished the 5.0 swap. I've now owned this vehicle for 12 years and I still love driving it. Hopefully these pics will get you out in the garage to finish your Explorer project! image hosting 30 mb

I recently finished a 5.0 swap in my 93 Explorer. Now, I can't seem to get the Air Conditioner to work. ALL components are brand new and from the factory 4.0, so I didn't change anything in the A/C system. The Fan blows inside and the A/C light turns on but is not cold. If I run test leads...

What size radiator is everyone using for their V8 swaps in the Explorer/Rangers?

Just thought I would share what I usually tow with. It's a 1971 International Harvester 1210 pickup. It has an IH 392 engine with a 5 speed trans. PTO winch in the rear and electric winch in the front, both come in handy. It also has an electric trailer brake controller. The trailer is a 2016...

I am doing a body lift on my 93 xlt and the front body mounts were in poor shape in the radiator core support position. Where can I get new ones? I am having trouble getting them.

I am trying to help a friend with his '97 4.0L SOHC that has broken a timing chain. I found a kit online and the special tool I think, but I have heard these are interference engines. Will there be bent valves or other issues that will have to be fixed beside the chains and cassettes? Can...

Well I blew a head gasket over a year ago in my 4.0, so I dumped J&W Block sealer in the coolant and it got me another 15,000 miles out the ol' V6! Well worth the money. A couple weeks ago it gave up on me again so, I finally made the jump and bought a 5.0/ AOD from an '86 mustang. :D I am very...

I'm trying to gather most of the parts I need to do a V8 swap this summer in my '93. I have a '71 302 engine so it has a carb obviously and the local junkyards have a lot of 80-early 90's fuel injected F-150 trucks.. My question is, will this style fuel injection bolt on my '71 engine and fit...

Currently on my 93, I have cheapo shackles in the rear and rough country 1.5" leveling coil springs up front with 32" tires. My dad gave me the add-a-leaf kit from his 91 ranger and I want to use them on my Explorer with some warrior shackles. My question is... Can I use the AAL and...

I have a 93' 4dr XLT, and looking at this exhaust, http://www.jegs.com/i/Pace-Setter/766/86-2825/10002/-1?parentProductId=953885 It says it only fits 1991-92, why is this? I thought 91-94 were all the same, does anybody know what the difference in years is??

My head gasket is gone in my 93' 4.0 and the auto trans has a million miles on it and I'm not willing to fix the engine, but can't make myself sell the EX! So I'm using this as an excuse to put in a V8 I've been searching for info for months now tossing the idea around because I have a low...

Hey, I'm posting for my mom's 95 Ex. It's a 4.0 auto 4dr. When you put it in reverse there is a clunk then the engine dies, it starts right back up afterwords. Forward gears there are no problems and there is no check engine light... Has anyone had any experience with this?

Ok everyone, I've searched for literally days now and can't find much info about transfer cases. I've searched explorerforum, The Ranger Station, and googled! I need some help. Here's the deal... my '93 4 door Ex finally blew a head gasket and the auto trans has 330k on it, therefore I'm not...

Hey everyone, I need your opinion.. My 93 xlt started running rough like it needed a tune up last week so I had planned on doing one, but later that day while on the highway, the temp got up to the "O" on the temp gauge so I pulled over to check things and it was low on coolant but had not...

Hey everyone, I have been trying to put in a new/junkyard cable for my LR window regulator assembly for two evenings now. I am having a problem getting the cable to wind back up into the housing correctly, it keeps getting jammed inside the roller. I'm about to give up and switch to a 95-01...

Ok, I've been searching for a long time how to keep my stock bumpers and have a winch. (I like my brush guard on my stock bumper.) I did want a removeable winch, But the only option I saw was to buy the 'hidden hitch' set up that hangs way tooo low below the bumper. So I built my own... not sure...

Hey everyone I need opinions.. THE SITUATION: My 93 xlt has 1.5in leveling springs from rough country installed exactly 1 year ago. I also used 2-4in lift, foam cell "extreme" shocks from les schwab because the leveling kit actually gave me 2 inches of lift. PROBLEM: The front shock...

I just changed the wheel cylinder for the passenger side drum brakes. when I took off the brake line I lost a lot of fluid. Can I just hook the line back up and refill the resivor? Or do I need to bleed the brakes after the new wheel cylinder is full of fluid?
