In my reading, I have discovered that you can fit and Eaton M-90 supercharger from an old T-bird SC, or Cougar XR-7, to the 4.0 SOHC. Anyone have experience with this? Worth it? Not?

I already bought quickstruts, for the rear. The springs were broken. Now, they are functional. Just wondered if different springs (i.e.-heavier/progressive springs) were of any benefit? I test drove a Ford Edge. You just can't seem to find a bump/dip/pothole, enough to make it ride rough. The...

I had a broken link right before fixing the suspension. So, I have...sorta...tried it already. My rear coil springs were broken. The left front ball joints were shot, and I needed a rear left wheel bearing. So, in addition to the sway bar link being broken, I don't know which of what was making...

I don't do much off roading to speak of. A little dirt/gravel to get to fishing spots, only. But, I AM tired of the side, to side wobble when ecountering dips/bumps. I have new Monroe strut cartridges, in the rear. New struts in the front. New U/L ball joints. The suspension is fully factory...

Just a note...I did my filter mod a year ago. And, it's stupid easy. I was amazed at the minimal amount of work I had to do. I simply used a dremel tool with a cutoff disc. One hour to cut out the access (inside the vehicle, no removal of anything, but the glove box.) cut the filter material...

Used Timken 9 months ago, and...doing it again, tomorrow! SKF is what Ford uses. I'm using SKF, this time!! Edit...I'm just about to the point of buying an extra pair of knuckles, with a new set of bearings ready to go! One goes bad...swap out the old for the new, re-align, and go. What an...

Not saying that this is the problem...but, I had an older Exp, that had a vibration, that got worse, at higher speeds. It was the steering box. I had it changed out, and the problem was GONE. Now, a vibration can come from LOTS of different places. But, that was what I had. Just another place to...

After being on this site for a few years, and owning an '02 Explorere since brand new, I can say that the problem you have mentioned, is not new. I had the same problem. I found that it was the alt. I repleced the alt, and the fairly new battery that was destroyed by the bad alt. And, have since...

And, where did you locate the second battery for this dual charging system? You did seperate the charging system into two distinct/separate systems, right?

When I first bought my 3rd gen XP, I noticed the column seemed to have a "bellows" type collar. It seemed to indicate that the column would telescope. But, it would not. I just felt that with the seat all the way back, reaching the steering wheel was only feasable for a guy of 6'10"! So, when I...

The big ones can be powder coated in your choice of color (limited colors), for $48 additional charge.

Halleuha!! https://www.dcpowerinc.com/fit/2004~Ford~Explorer~4.0L-V6/7768-6k-300-spx.html It requires NO MODIFICATIONS. A bit pricey, but FAR cheaper than a dual alt setup...that is not possible on the X anyway.

With the higer milage vehicles, there is always the possibility of a bad set of cats. It might not be, but bucking, can be due to excessive backpressure. As well as decreased milage.

The condition of a dead battery causes this same response. If you charge the battery with a charger, then let it sit for 10 minutes, you should see that your guages act normally when switching the ignition off, and on. If, after sitting for overnight it does not, then you have a damaged...

Anyone know what the average lifespan is, of the fuel injectors, on an Explorer?

Once again, I had VERY similar troubles. Mine ALSO got worse in warmer weather! I feel it HAS to be something in the ignition/fuel system. I had a bad coil pack. This led to one of the plugs going bad. You might have a problem with a crank trigger. Your O2 sensors, COULD be bad. Or, a few other...

Well...I feel like an idiot! I over looked my real problem for a month! I have the same vehicle. I changed out the DPFE sensor. It DID make a difference. But, only a small difference. I changed out the fuel filter. It, too, made a difference. But, only a small difference. The vehicle DID run...

OK, I just replaced the DPFE sensor. I ordered it after doing some reading on this forum. I replaced it in about 5 minutes. Actually easier than replacing a turn signal bulb! Disconnected the negative terminal on the battery to delete the "service engine soon" light. Instantly, everything was...

The trans for the 4.0 on an '02, it the 5R55W. I have one from Jasper, and it works great. Been using it for 5,000 miles, now.

My philosphy is to treat them like headlights. You replace one, replace both. If the upper goes, replace the the lower as well. They are essentially the same part. If one is bad, and you're already there...why not do them both? You will need an alignment after you replace the upper. If you only...

The throttle body, on my X was fine. But, I had the fuel filter changed, and this solved part of the problem. However....it did not SOLVE the problem. I still have a stumble, off the line. And a stutter/stumble, some of the time. As stated...some of the problem was fixed with a new fuel filter...
