I am trying to figure out if my torsion bars are worn out or if the torsion bars had been cranked already. I was measuring from the top of the 16" rim to the bottom of the fender and had 12" on both driver and passenger sides, 14" on the back after my shackles. I noticed the driver side torsion...

Bare with me for a minute here. I am an idiot and accidently locked my keys in my truck today with the ignition in on. I noticed after my battery was already drained and couldn't use my keypad to get in the truck. I was lucky enough to have left the sunroof cracked open a little and was able to...

I just got my grabber at2 285 75 16s in for my sport trac. I will be running them on stock wheels with warrior shackles and a 2" tt. I've made peace with knowing I'll have to do some trimming but wonder if anyone is running a spacer or adapter to reduce the amount of cutting that needs to be...

I have had my sport trac for about 6 months now. It's a 2004, stock with the stock size 255 tires. Previously I had a 99 sport and before that a 96 xlt. Compared to those, my st is a total dog. I know it is heavier, but this thing has 76k and a good service record when I bought it compared to...

Like the title states, can a SOHC PCM be tuned for a 5.0 motor? I know they are totally different motors, but I am tossing around the idea of swapping just the 5.0 in place of the 4.0, leaving the existing trans and everything else but not sure if the pcm in the 4.0 is even capable of...

Hey everyone. So over the past few days my shifter has felt loose ie I have to pull it down to second to get it in drive then just manually move it back to d. I checked and tightened the tire screws under the column that like to loosen up but it seems like I'll need to adjust the linkage as...

Looking for some advice. I have an 04 with the adrenalin package(pioneer 6 disc, amp, sub). I got the metra 70-5517 harness to connect to a Pioneer head unit, wired everything up on the main harness, attached the blue/white remote wire to the smaller harness blue/ white wire, amp ground to the...

I did a bit of searching and didn't find any issues that seemed to match my problem exactly. I have had my sport trac for about 2 weeks and over the past 2 days, it went from having a smooth idle to a small shake. It is barely noticeable on the tach but you can feel it in your seat enough at a...

I'm in the process of trying to find a set of black housing headlights. I've seen the ones posted all over ebay but am only finding sets with the orange reflector in the corner. Does anyone know where I can find a set of black housings with a clear reflector?

Hey everyone. I just bought a new(to me) sport trac and am getting ready to get rid of my 99 explorer sport. I was planning to just bring it to the junk yard but a friend said they wanted it. I told him to give me scrap value for it, but he countered insisting he give me 1000 for it which I...

I'm going to look at an 02 sport trac in a few days. I was looking for an 03-up specifically but the price on this seems right and has all the options I'd prefer. My only gripe is I know the timing chain guides on the sohc were updated part way through 02. Is there a particular build date when...

I have a 99 sport that had a bad t case. The issue I'm having was evident then but I attributed it to the transfer case slipping. Whenever 4wd engages, the wheels and steering wheel jerk left. What could the cause of this be? Possible that one of the hubs isn't engaging? How would I cgeck this...

Anyone ever seen this or know the solution? The truck will shift fine in all gears but won't shift from 2-3 when rpm's are above 3k. This is on a 99 EB with an auto trans

So my 96 blew the trans again a few months ago. I opted not to put a new trans in it since the job was such a pain and since practically everything else was wrong with it too(all 4 ball joints totally shot, headlight switch finnicky, turn signal stalk bad, speakers blown, hotwired since my...

So I had a really bad coolant leak coming from my LIM gaskets, just got done putting the top end back together. Changed the oil, started it up, it ran fairly smooth. Shut it down, did another oil change to get any left over coolant out of the oil, start it back up and its running like crap...

Alright, so I looked around and couldn't find much matching my issue Since I got the truck I have had a veeery slight vibration around 60. Last week, I noticed when I was coasting that there was a vibration at low speeds( If i let go of the steering wheel, it shimmy's back and forth with a...

I have a 96 XLT explorer, I popped a brake line the other day. Its the steel line running to the rear passenger caliper. I got a hole in the line where it goes around the diff cover. I want to pull the line off the junction block at the back and put a plug in there for a few days until I get the...

I have a 96 XLT with stock cloth seats that are worn to crap. Anyone know of any seats that are a direct bolt in that are more comfortable? I assume leather seats out of a mountaineer are a bit nicer, but hate the idea of leather for a truck. Even if they wont bolt in, how about a set of seats...

I replaced my trans a month or so ago, and was in too much of a rush to put my front driveshaft back in. Finally got around to doing it the other day. Got in the truck and put it into 4wd hi, the light came on the dash solid, no blinking 4wd light. I didnt feel the transfer case engage or...

When i select my 96 xlt in crutchfield, it bring up 5x7s and 6x8s as fitting front and back. I hear that the stock size is 5.5x7.5, sooo what size do I need to buy? Also, can anyone recommend a decent inexpensive set of speakers to me? I just want to get rid of the stock speakers that buzz when...

ok, so I have a 96 4.0 ohv 4wd xlt. I bought it with a bad trans, and was given a 70k mile replacement trans with the truck. The issue the truck had was that when put in drive or reverse, the truck would not move, but when put in 1 or 2, it would move. Thus begins a headache I finally got the...

So i bought my truck nearly 6 months ago now, and it's been sitting all along waiting for me to get the time to replace the trans. It came with a new trans out of a 96. The issue it has is that if you put it into drive, it doesnt move, put it into reverse, doesn't move, but put it into 1 or...

Hey everyone, I just bought my new daily driver on monday and thought I'd say hi. It's a 96 Explorer XLT with 170k. i bought it for $500 with a bad trans, bad hood lift supports, bad driver side lock actuator and both bank lean and o2 sensor codes. The truck came with another 70k mile...
