I'd prefer black, but if I can't get it, I guess I'll paint it. Shoot me a PM if you've got one. Shipping to 57069

On my 99, the stock size is 255/70R16 on a 7" wheel. However, tire manufacturers recommend OEMs use either a 235 or 245 wide tire on a 7" wheel, and 255 for 7.5" wide wheels. Anyone know the reason Ford went with the 255 wide tires instead? Did Ford just choose a fairly narrow 255 for...

Damn my huge hands! Best way to reach them? They moved the motor back on the 99 5.0s and I'm having trouble getting in there.

I'm looking for the style that goes with the extended lip fender flares. Just like this Only driver's side, only the rocker moulding... hopefully. Shipping is to 57069 if you've got the piece, or, if it is easier on you, I can also pick up from Greyhound Package Express in Sioux City, IA.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get replacement stickers for inside the door jam? I mean the tag with all the build information. I don't need it for the information, since I already know all of it, aside from the build date, I am just obsessive about fairly random things, and am sad that...

This is a point I have tried to make with people numerous times in the past, but unfortunately, just about everyone with $50 to spend on a part for their car that some advertising told them they needed to go faster thinks they have a degree in engineering. Anyway, I'll put this up there for now...

When I use my remote to unlock my car, only my interior courtesy lamps and puddle lamps come on. Most cars I have owned the front and rear markers would come on too, including several Fords of similar model years. Is this the way Explorers are configured, or is there a problem with mine? It...

The truck came with a crappy aftermarket stereo, and I wanted to put a slightly less crappy aftermarket stereo in, but I need help identifying what I had so I can figure out what wire harness to buy. The previous stereo just had the wires for the harness stripped part way and the stereo wires...

So, last year, I had a lot of flooding around my home, and my beloved 92 faithfully ferried my children away from our house without a whimper. It put up with all the work I asked of it around the farms, it took us back and forth to North Dakota through the worst of weather, through all manner...

Hard to see, but on all the wheel studs that aren't broken, all the threads are stripped off..... I always properly torque my wheels (though I haven't had them off since it got tires a couple months back, I have checked them to make sure they are tight about once a month) All the lugnuts fell...

I have a spare engine with a good block out of a 92 EB, looking to rebuild for a spare/upgrade motor. I am not looking for more power, in fact, what modification will be done will primarily be done in an effort to increase mileage. However, since I don't have a lot of experience with these...

Must Have Tools: Flat tip screwdriver 5/16" nut driver -- Not required, but nicer to use than a screwdriver for your intake 10mm 3/8" drive socket -- Deep 13mm 3/8" drive socket -- Deep -- 13mm combination wrench is handy too 15mm 3/8" drive socket -- You may want to use a 1/2" drive socket and...

Yeah.... sounds weird I know. The threads are still in the head along with part of the plug. The top half of the plug, including the nut, has sheared off. Anyone have any good ideas for getting the remainder of the plug out, or am I just gonna have to pull the head.... I would rather not do...

The hot/dim spots aren't quite as obvious in person, I am actually quite pleased. A note for anyone else who wants to do this. If you replace the battery, 4wd, low range, check engine, check oil or ABS light with LEDs, some of those lights will dimly glow while the engine is running, and...

Might as well work when the weather is good right? I've gotten some pretty good deals on parts over the last month or so, but no good weather to do anything. Don't mind the vicious guard kitten... He is a happy camper since being rescued from the cold last month. The list: Tom Tom XXL 540 --...

I had mentioned this before in a thread, and I thought this was a good time to take a pic so people could see what I meant since I was throwing a thermostat in my ex today anyways. So without further ado, the aspirin trick... sorry about the quality of the pictures.... I spilled antifreeze all...

Hey, can anyone post up some pics of a side by side comparison on 1st gen exploder tails and some 93-97 ranger tails? I know they aren't interchangeable, I am just looking for a comparison of size and contours.

Anyone know what the pulse count per mile is on the speed sensor for a first gen?

Ok, so I took a picture of my sploder (that's an I voted sticker over the ford emblem) and I wanted to change up the front end a bit... maybe something a little more like a classic bronco Everything in it is to scale (I took meticulous measurements, and spent even longer resizing things)...

91 eddie bauer 4wd For a while there, when my dad was driving, if he started out in OD, it would slip. Starting out in D was just fine though. Then while driving down the highway, if you shifted the selector to OD, the truck would shift into overdrive normally. When driving at lower...

Picked up a 92 for lulz, brakes were very soft in it, it had been sitting for about a year and the reservoir was nearly dry. Added fluid, bled the brakes until the whole system had only clean fluid. At first, I couldn't get the rears to bleed. Almost no pressure back there. Lots of pedal...

Reposted from Stock 91-94 Automatic 4wd 91 Eddie Bower When shifting into OD on the indicator, the vehicle will barely move, as if the transmission were slipping. Put it into D it takes off right away. If you shift into OD at highway speeds, it shifts into overdrive just fine. Fluid is not...

Was driving home from the grocery store today, truck wanted to keep revving after I got up to speed. I accelerated to 45 (not sudden acceleration either) and when I took my foot off the pedal to coast down when someone was turning in front of me, I noticed the truck didn't drop RPMs. I pulled...

Changing plugs, wires, injectors, fuel pressure regulator, and other little things. Tips for anyone wrenching an explorer: 1: When installing spark plugs, use anti-seize lubricant on the threads 2: If you ever find yourself removing the fuel rail, be sure to use the proper Torx bit to...
