No problems here. Right side lasted about 170K (IIRC), left made it to 193K. Replaced the fronts for the hell of it. Still runs and drives like new, with no leaks, no rips or tears in the interior, and that is the main reason there's not a 2024 Raptor sitting in my driveway. She may outlast me...

The Big Explorer finally fell victim to the infamous "door ajar" light. Many thanks to members here and a YouTube video. A couple of wires (black) broke in the harness between the driver's door and the body, which members here had posted as a possible cause many times, pointed me in the right...

Wish I could find the white tails to go with these grilles

Did a search, but didn't find a clear cut answer to this question. I planning on running my set of 18" Mustang Bullitt wheels on my 3 gen Eddie B, what size spacers, if any, are needed? I apologize upfront if the answer was posted somewhere and I just over looked it.

Been looking for these small mud flaps/side skirts? for awhile with no luck. Anybody know if they are still out there?

Did the white face gauge mod yesterday. Bought the kit off E-Bay. Came out really nice, but my complaint is that it's really dark and kinda hard to see when the graphics are in night mode until it is all the way dark.

Quick question, my 05 Eddie Bauer has all the standard EB features except adjustable pedals, which it seems was a included standard item. Was this something that you could delete back when the truck was being built?

Just finished installing a Insta-Lube pre-oiler on my '05 Eddie B with the 4.0 SOHC today. Thought it was working fine, but I noticed a few hours later, that if it sits for longer than 30 minutes the pressure must bleed off in the system somehow because when you turn the key to prime it nothing...

Picked up this really nice 3 gen Eddie B.at a pretty good price a couple of dayz back. Super clean with a newly installed 4.0 replacement powerplant. All the bells and whistles including moonroof. Still have my '96, and plans are to keep it for awhile longer...

I may be looking for a set of these in 16's if they will fit a 96 Explorer two wheel drive w/ 4.0. Does anyone know if they will?

Looking for a set of Ford Factory 16" aluminum "tear drop" wheels with caps that will fit a '96 Explorer E.B. two wheel drive.

Bought another '96 Ex for parts, runs but has a bad transmission. It has a very good interior, now for my question. The driver's seat in my DD Ex is in bad but fair shape and I'm gonna do some swapping. Can the passenger seat (great condition) in the parts Ex be taken off it's right side base...

Having a slight issue with my truck. Under heavy acceleration I'm getting the pinging issues. Several times I've used 93 octane but it's has not changed the pinging. I also get the rattle when climbing steep terrain. I'm thinking the chain may be getting a little too worn. Truck runs fantastic...

Having an issue with my truck. This usually happens while driving on the interstate. After driving for a while (at least 15 minutes) at higher speeds (about 60-80 mph), when you start to decel the oil gauge will shake violently for half a second. It shakes so hard it clicks. It's been doing this...

Despite having 300K + on her, my Explorer 4.0 ohv, has run like a day 2 job. Recently while driving home on Interstate 35 at about 70-80 mph, I kept hearing a odd noise. I rolled the window down and lowered the stereo and was surprised to hear labor knocks coming from the engine. She runs fine...

OK, narrowed down my oil pressure switch irratation. It only happens when I'm traveling down the interstate or somewhere when I hold a high speed for awhile and slow down and hit the brakes the needle will bounce to zero with a loud clicking noise and it may do it once or twice after I get into...

After front end rebuild (by me) consisting of upper and lower bj's (Moog), shocks (house)and sway bar bushings (Moog)as well as end links and a shop alignment, I still have a very slight "clunk" when turning left mostly. Tried having the wife turn the wheel while I felt around the suspension for...

Was going to pick the bones of a friend's '99 XLT 4.0 "cammer". He was going to junk it because of the timing chain going south. Hadn't seen it and was surprised at the damage. When the front chain, guide, tensioner, whatever let go, it knocked a large hole in the left side valve/cam cover...

My oil pressure gauge is acting up. While driving, sometimes it will bounce to zero for a split nano second. No particular time, hot or cold, may do it once or twice in 50 miles of driving. Makes a funny noise and that's what draws your attention to it. Been doing it for several months so not...

Tried O'Reilly's BrakeBest ceramic pads. Got to say, hated em'! :thumbdwn:. The hotter they got, the louder the noise. Sounded like a metal to metal grind. Did the break in procedure, twice. Today took them back for a set of Wagner Thermo-Quiets. Got to say, Impressed! :thumbsup: Happy, Happy...

Have a clicking noise in the console similar to the clicking you get when the blend door motor gears go belly up. The noise seems to be coming from under the CD player. Found the power connector pluged into the rear A/C control head that was pointed out in another post. Did some low tech...

While I was doing the UCA's today, I noticed a fair size oil spot underneath when I finished. Looks like the ol' girl's rear main seal may be going south. Oh well, it's cheaper to replace it than buying that Lincoln Aviator I've always wanted. 260K and still truckin'. Anybody have any luck with...

Found a pristine 96' Limited. Nothing was taken off of it at all. No dents, motor intact, exterior/interior was perfect. Paint was slightly faded in spots(light green) but it looked very well cared for. Pulled the (4.0 ohv)oil stick and it was shiney, no build up or burn marks on it. Out of...

My anti lock brake light comes on from time to time in my '96 Eddie B. Sometimes when I start her the light stays on. I can cut her off, put my foot on the brake and restart it, the pedal will pulse once and the light will go out. Sometimes it will come back on sometimes not. There are no codes...

Anybody have this issue before? The X sat at the airport for 5 days last week and started with no issues. Then she sat at home from last Saturday until Wednesday. I started her today and got the rattle for about 2 seconds, sounded like all the rods were knocking. The oil pressure gauge was...
