    My rear is whining...no not that REAR!

    The wifes diff is starting to whine at highway speeds. 2002 2WD 4.0L, automatic. around town it's barely noticeable, but on the highway it really starts screaming! I haven't had the chance to check the fluid level but will this weekend. Am I safe to assume it's a common issue with these? If...

    Adding power seats to 2002 Explorer?

    Purchased a 2002 XLS for my wife and she's not happy with the manual seats. My question is, who has upgraded to the full-power seats and is it a direct bolt-in and plug-n-play? I haven't taken the time to see if there's a power plug under the carpet yet so I wanted to ask first. Thanks in advance.

    Wanted to pass this along

    took the Exploder to a mechanic today, one that I trust, and it KILLED ME to do this since I try to do most of my work. But I had a problem I couldn't diagnose. Vaccum lines keep popping off the wife's Exploder. Well, scratched my head for ever. Well, luckily, the mechanic had a 94 explorer...

    Eibach Lowering Springs

    anyone here tried them? If so, what shock did you use? The wife has a 94 Explorer XLT 4-door that I'm trying to improve for her since the "Honey we need to get you a BIGGER SUV" talk didn't work. I'm tired of the crappy ride this thing has. The shocks are 2 years old with 15K miles and they're...

    Rear lift gate FIXES???

    I know of a recall on the lift gate tube mounts had a reinforcement riveted on the lft gate, but I'm, scratching my head about the hinge portion. The damn thing keeps flexing and it's pissing me off! There's not enough metal there to actually weld something, at least I don't think there is, and...

    Dreaded pinging!

    The wife's Explorer was decarbed last year because of a serious pinging under acceleration of any type. On the highway the check engine light would come on if you tried to speed up. Anyway, the pinging never went away, I did a spark plug change on it and driveability is a little bit better. Then...

    Lift kits for 2wd Explorers?

    Hey guys, my wife's 2wd Explorer is starting to sag heavily in the front with 145K miles on it. I'm thinking that I'll put a lift kit in it. Any ideas? I contacted Duffy 4wd and he said they didn't make a kit for a 2wd model. I'm thinkin the 4wd lifted coils will be a direct fit and then an...
