Ok. I've had my explorer up in storage for about a year now because of the rockers being all rusted out and not having found anyone who can weld the newer ones in. Anyway, for the sake of keeping the engine fresh i decided to go down and turn the engine over. I was looking around and...

Well a friend and I went out to the salvage yard today. $1 to get in each... I had hopes that I would find some explorers out there in decent condition, or atleast like half a dozen to pick from. Turns out that the yard only had 3 of them out there. I went through and picked what i could. Got...

Anyone know how to remove the doors? Whats the easiest way to take the doors off when i got to the salvage yard oh, and whats the point of a $2 core for the doors? Its not worth the gas to drive back for $2

Once the body work is finished i need to figure out if I should stay with the same EL YY colors... Strawberry Red and the off white color or if i should change ot another color...possibly a solid color for the entire vehicle. I have the Red interior though. Anyone seen an exterior color that...

Hey All. I'm looking for some ideas on what i might want to do with my X. I've got a 91' thats lifted but its suffering from the northeast rocker rot. The rot has even worked itself into the doors... I'm going to check some salvage yards later this week but i'm not sure what a price on...

I just put a new shift motor on the transfer case tonite (in 10'F weather, outside mind you) There were 3 wires on the old one that didnt come on the new motor. I cut the wires and installed the new motor,it seemed to shift and work correctly. I'm wondering what i cut and if i'm giogn to have...

Ok, I need some yards or places where i can buy the doors for explorers.. I want to retain all the original hardware from my current doors so that wont be a problem. I do need the metal and the windows however. I assume that they are available out of salvage yards or from some location. You...

I just recently put my explorer back on the road after having it mothballed for nearly 4 months. Things deteriorate quickly it seams, as the rockers, doglegs and bottoms of the doors are all starting to rust out. I dont know at this point if I should just sell the truck out and not have to...

My roommate has a 90 ranger which has a throttle body which for some reason is sticking badly. The sticking is intermittant....and we've taken the body off and cleaned it to see if there was something that might be loosened up. Unfortunately its still sticking and he wants a new throttle body...

Anyone know of a lift kit greater than the 2" for the 96' s-10 Blazer?

alright, normally when your turn signal doesnt work its the result of the bulb being out. In this case I've got a left signal that works sometimes and othertimes it doesnt. Basically when i go and start the truck in the morning and start driving it, the left signal will stay lit and not...

Yeap. I had a lovely nite of watching all the oil in my engine drip onto the ground after my oil sending unit went out. I drove like 10 miles with low pressure, but the temp guage never moved past the N so I think the engine is alright. The ford dealer closests to where i got the problem...

Does anyone know of a specific light which really works extremely well in snow? Reason being, I came back from driving in a snow storm tonite and decided that i'm going to put some amber's down below for such occurances in the future. Maybe somone has seen a review or something that i can...

I figured that putting the stock 235's back on my truck would help for highway gas mileage, however if RPM's are any indication of the gas I am actually getting WORSE mileage and higher RPM's with the 235s than I was with the 33 X 12.5 MT's. Can anyone explain why I would be getting 1500-1800...

Has anyone seen any sites where i can get replacement doors? I've found plenty of replacement panels, fenders and such, but I think i may be needing a new rear door soon.

I'm running my 33X12.5 Mud Terrains right now, but the weather up in northern New York causes certain problems. The major one is that without the sipes in the tires, on the mudder's, i end up sliding around alot. So i'm thinking that maybe I should put my 235s back on, but i'm worried about...

Has anyone found a good place to get replacement body panels for the 91-94's? I need the bottom sill and the rear doglegs for my truck sometime in the future here.... I know alot of you guys havent had to deal with rust but if you' know where I might be able to get replacement panels at a...

hey all. I was hoping someone might be able to help me figure out why my truck is slowing going out of alignment. I had it set about 3 months ago...even with the big tires I hadnt anticipated needed to have it done quite so often. I havent done any offroading yet so I wouldnt think that...

If you havent tried it yet, 3M makes a professional series Wax. It works VERY well...it may be a bit pricey but having used that vs several other waxes, I think its a better product.

I live in NY and will be taking a trip to VA in the spring wiht my truck. I'm debating what to do as far as tires to get down there and back as the Bridgestone M/T's I have on now probably wont be the best for long distance/tread wear. I have a set of 235's BFG A/Ts that I could slap on for...

OK... I get my lift on and no sooner does a major problem appear. I dont know how i missed this, but the bar that seperates the windows on the rear doors are both starting to bubble up and rust out. Does anyone know if this bar can be replaced?? How do I get it out?? I'm a lttle nervous...

Mud Lite Check out the before and afters.... what'a ya think?? :) I'm happy so far with the way its going. I just put the Fabtech pushbar on tonite... I was happy with the looks but the bumper on the explorer isnt very solid...the chrome flexes when any weight is put on the bar so I'm...

Anyone know if the mustang or ranger A arms inside the cab are the same as the explorer for a 91-94? I want to put one of those pod guages on my truck with a real oil pressure guage in it but I'd like it to actually fit Thanks

Ok guys... I've got a quick question. "m running 33 X12.5 " Bridgestone Dueler M/Ts right now. I just put them on and have heard that the M/T's at that size arent really good in the snow. With winter fast approaching, I'm looking to get some radials that i can drive in the winter...reducing...
