5r55e in a 1995 Explorer XLT 4x So the short version of a long story is I paid a small fortune to have my tranny rebuilt after it burned up. I had them put in a shift kit, aux cooler, and HD clutches. Basically I asked them to 'give me the works'... and it wasn't cheap. About 13 months later...

I was hoping someone could give me some clues here. 1995 X, driver seat is securely bolted but like a rocking chair. It's not the seat frame, that's fine, it appears to be the base that the seat bolts to. The front left bolt is snug, but the seat lifts at this point. I'm wondering if a weld...

Can anyone tell me what the part number is for the clip that fits in this connector from the throttle body? Is it the same as the one from the fuel line? I broke it. Need to get a new one and pick n pull isn't as close as Napa... Thanks

Hey all, hoping someone has some insight. I was pulling my boat a couple weeks back and lost power in the drivetrain. Transmission gone again, this was a 5 year old reman Ford installed. After deciding to keep the truck I found a reputable shop in the area and ordered up a full rebuild with...

I'm posting this because I'm really happy with how it came out and wanted to share. I've been pondering installing a real number voltage gauge in the cab of my Ex for some time now, but I didn't want to use one of my pillar pods for that, nor did I want some giant screen with some logo on it...

Hi Everyone! This weekend's project involves upgrading all my grounds in anticipation of upgrading to an HO alternator and getting my roof lights installed... SO my question is, can you guys help me out with locations? Here are the ones I'm aware of: Battery/Chassis Block/Chassis...

Noise from oil pan (Solved) 1995 Explorer, 4.0L ohv ( Reman. long block from ford < 50,000k on it. Installed by myself and my pops ~5 years ago. ) First clip is explained in the vid. Second clip I'm holding the recorder right below the oil pan (Didn't have the light under there) This...

Could use some advice (surging/sputtering) warm start. OK, the long and short of it is this... I've got the intermittent surging idle on warm start issue. It's random, only seems to happen this time of year and definitely only after the truck has been going for a while (Usually after a few...

I'm looking to remove my running boards and need rocker panel trim from a 2nd gen. I can't find it at the local J/Y. I prefer black, but not opposed to having it painted.

Yeah so like the title says I always had junk floppin' around in my trunk... so I decided to do something about it. Wrapped in some marine grade vinyl (Using 3M glue) with computer desk grommets at the tiedown locations, then bolted in on the 'third row seat' holes: Junk box in...

I hate mounting relays under my hood without 'doing it right', so I spent some time down at pick 'n pull lurking around looking for the perfect relay box. I'm wiring up my bumper lights (4 hella 500ffs) and in order to not have to cover 2 of them and still be legal here in WA, I needed a...

Needed to restore my nasty old console tray... the felt stuff they put on there from the factory was in terrible condition and washing it did nothing. Had this idea to use bedliner on it, but worried that it would melt the plastic. A friend suggested light coats initially and that worked fine...

I've been rolling around with this broken power antenna eyesore for years, and since I don't like power antennas anyway, I decided to replace it with a generic 3' black antenna. I didn't feel like driving out the the junkyard, so I just figured I'd take a chance with one of these cheap...

I'm posting for feedback on my plans... I'm pretty sure everything is the way I want it, but hopefully if I fudged up somewhere you guys can call me on it. I'm attaching the plans I drew for what I want to do. The only real question I haven't been able to answer is whether or not I need to...

What are my options for re-calibrating the speedometer on a 1995 4wd xlt? Sorry if this has been covered, I've been searching and searching and can't find a definitive answer on this board for my particular ******* Ex. Can the dealer reconfig the truck for my new tires? I want accurate...

Hi all, I'm a new member but a regular reader (when working on my rig :) ) Just wanted to say hi to all and thanks for your great input. I happen across this forum very often when googleing issues related to my Explorer and while my problem's still not fixed, I'm certain that when I do...

This is my book entitled: "I'm about to drive my rig off of a cliff" There's a very good chance I'm going to miss something in this explanation because I have been working on troubleshooting this issue for months now. It seems that every time one thing is fixed, another thing comes up... but...
