    Hi - I scanned the forum to try to see if anyone else had encountered this but couldn't find anything. Has anyone encountered this issue? I noticed that the one hinge on the right side is really crooked. It still functions OK, but I just worry that it might break at some point. Also, the...

    Replacing Pillars

    Hi - I am trying to order replacement pillars for my 2002 Ford Explorer and for the life of my, I can't find ANY site selling them. I did not think it would be this hard to find them (or I might just not be searching correctly). Does anyone have any links and/or part #s for the pillars? Thanks!

    Leaking in Back! Help!

    Hi guys, My 2002 Explorer XLT is leaking in the back. I believe I have narrowed the problem down to the 3rd brakelight at the top of the hatch. I think the gasket is shot and is allowing water to seep in through the middle since the brakelight is slighted bowed. The water then runs down...

    Replacing Car Stereo.

    cfh4life, Stereo replacement in the explorer is very easy especially if you have a harness. You do not have to removed the knobs at all. All you need to do is pry around the edge of the black bevel around the radio (where the 4x4 buttons). I used a butter knife to do this as not to dmg the...
