    My Sport Trac is gone!

    hope you get a nice upgrade to your trac, steve. Glad you're still sticking around, you've probably forgot more than some of us ever knew about our trucks :)

    Have some new questions....

    This might sound stupid, but have you checked your transmission fluid? Maybe it's low or dirty or something simple like that.

    PITA Brakes!

    Hi everyone. I need some help with the rear brakes on my truck, specifically the driver's side. I replaced the pads and rotors on both back brakes last summer. A few months later I noticed a grinding noise coming from the driver's side so I pulled the wheel off and took a look. The pads were...

    need door hinges

    Hi guys. I've needed new hinges for the driver's door on my truck for quite awhile now but haven't wanted to shell out the ridiculous price for them from the stealership and haven't been able to find aftermarket ones on my own. If anyone has purchased these aftermarket or knows where to find...

    2003 Trac rear door unlock issue

    why not just turn of the auto-lock feature? That way you can control when your doors are locked or unlocked. I'm pretty sure there is a process to do this. It's in the manual but I can't think of what it is. I can look it up for you if you can't find it.

    Still have chimes

    I would like to bump this thread back to the top if you don't mind. I have the same problem on my '04. After the no seatbelt warning light turns off (after the first minute when the truck is started) the chimes go off as previously described. It only happens that one time but is still loud and...

    2003 Sport Trac - Rear Brakes

    I just replaced my read pads and rotors a couple weeks ago. I had nothing to do with the brake lines at all. Don't forget to back off the e-brake pads or take them off if you are putting on new rotors or they will rub and heat up and stink like hell.

    Eastern Ontario Explorers

    Well Todd you're not the only one from this neck of the woods. I live in Forest. I see a few other tracs around from time to time but you never know if they are in the club or not. See you around.

    starting and radio issue

    Hi guys. I posted about this problem before but I didn't get enough answers to solve my problem. I have an '04 trac. Sometimes in cold weather when I turn the key to start the truck the starter will stop for about a second partway through cranking, all the doors will lock, then it cranks again...

    OEM Tonneau cover stuck in front

    to elaborate a bit on the last post, take the flathead screwdriver and stick it in where the latch is on the passenger side ( I think? ) of the truck and pry the cable down. You should see the latch unlock and you're good to go. edit: There might also be a cable handle at the front and back...

    Need New Tires for 02 Sport Trac - Recommendatinos Please

    no my truck is totaly stock. I don't know why, but my truck is terrible in any kind of snow. To be fair, this is the first truck (let alone RWD vehichle) I've ever owned so I only have a little bit of experience in snow with this truck, but still I think I should be able to drive down the road...

    Need New Tires for 02 Sport Trac - Recommendatinos Please

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but I had a question about tires. I originally wanted to get a set of Wrangler A/T's or something fairly agreesive for my trac but I was told not to by a co-worker because it's a 2wd. He said it would suck in the slush and snow, the tires would try to plow instead of...

    Need New Tires for 02 Sport Trac - Recommendatinos Please

    I have a set of Dueller Altezza(?)s on my '04 2wd trac and so far they SUCK in snow. I bought them because they're supposed to be a good all weather tire and I went in the ditch in half an inch of snow this morning. I was only going about 70 km/h at the time. I put some weight in the back so I...

    Having some PITA issues with my Trac - need some advice

    Thanks for your input ncranchero. I think the centre light in the back is burnt out. The 2 map lights come on when the switches are pushed but i haven't seen a centre light. I didn't realize there were 3 lamps. As for the starting thing and the radio thing I suspected a bad battery was causing...

    Having some PITA issues with my Trac - need some advice

    Hi guys. I've tried doing all the research I could on my problems but couldn't really find the answers to my questions. None of these things are life threatening but are annoying enough to be an issue. 1. How do I get the backseat interior lights to come on when I open the door? The light...

    Seat Belt warning buzzer

    I have an '04 sport trac and in my manual it says to buckle and unbuckle the belt 9 times. After the 9th time the airbag light comes on and within 3 seconds buckle/unbuckle once more and it will turn off the belt minder. Having said that, the belt minder does sound the first time when I am...
