Hi All, it has been a while since I have been around. I sold my lifted 93 explorer several years ago and got to playing with powerstrokes. Recently I have been lingering around, but not that active. I was brought back when I bought a SAS'd 92 explorer that turned out to be plagued by issues from...

We just installed a Luk Clutch kit, new flywheel, and a new slave cylinder. After bleeding (4 times now), the clutch is still really soft and the friction point is still just off the floor, less than 1/2 inch.. Any ideas as to why, or the next diagnostics step? Thanks

Today my step daughter decided to hit the 4wd button, then the 4 lo button several times real fast while driving down the road (She thought we left the t-case wires disconnected, but they weren't) and it shifted (after a long delay) into 4wd but then wouldn't come out. We stopped the truck and...

And landed right in my Garage!!!! :confused: :D It's a Dana HP 44 & a 9 inch out of a 78 Bronco. Maybe if I get my other projects finished, I can have them cleaned up, locked and ready to go under by next spring, if not then it will have to wait until fall '07.

My friend and I finally finished (about 90% anyhow) the rear bumper for the X. We did it in stages, so it took about 4 days of work total spread out over a month :confused: and about $110 (including paint which isnt on yet). Anyhow here is a picture of the whole bumper and one of the hinge...

I have been having axle wrap issues ever since doing the superlift SoA with the 5.5 in Lift. We tried welding the SoA brackets to the factory perches and new leafs, and had no luck. While that did tone it down some, it did not solve the issue. The other suggestion was to get rid of the Superlift...

Well I got my Short Throw Shifter today. I don't have any befores, but it was like any of the 5spd shifters out there (just prolly ALOT sloppier). Here's some after pics tho. Part# 391 5020 from Hurst. I ordered mine from Summit for $199. I am happy simply because I can use my cup holders again...

Any one rebuild their own 4.0? Are there any upgrade options (high Volume type) for the oil pump? My motor currently has 155k on it. It does not have any upper end issues as of yet (valve clattering or timing chain clattering or oil burning). However I do have significant oil pressure drop...

All, This morning I was doing an oil change on both vehicles (97 Exped & 93 Explorer) and noticed they both utilize the same style Front Driveshaft. :eek: Obviously the Expedition's was longer. Has anyone measured to see if it may work on an explorer after a 5"+ lift? I am going to do...

Hi all, I did a search for tran swap info, and couldn't find what I thought I read once. I thought I read about mating a c4/c5 to our 4.0L, was I dreaming? I can't seem to find any reference to it. I found t-5 swaps but that was about it. Does anyone recall this type of swap at all? I...

Hi All, I have a floorboard clunk after the lift. I know exactly where it is, but wondering if this is normal. Its the Rear Driveshaft U Joint (right off the transfercase) hitting the floorboard under hard acelleration. I have replaced the Trans mount thinking it was worn out after 154K miles...

Hi all, I need some help here. Looks like the steering box took a down turn :( I turn the steering wheel and nothing/very little happens at the wheels. I can see the shaft going into the gear box turning like it should, but the pitman arm doesn't move. I can see it's trying too. Is there...

Hi All, Last week, I was involved in a 3 car er well 3 truck pile up. I was the front vehicle so the only dmg I got was the rear bumper (thankfully). Seeing as how I am fixing to lift my explorer I am looking to do aftermarket bumpers, but can't find anyone who makes them for the rear. I know...

Well, I order my Skyjacker 6in class II lift today! $1100 with everything (radius, extended brakelines, brackets, shocks, everything), couldn't pass the deal up :cool: Unfortunately someone rearended the truck last week, so I have some stuff to replace as well (Bumper & Molding). The...

Hi all, I have been a member for a month or so now. Been reading rather religiously absorbing all the wealth of knowledge this board has available. Well I figured I should say hi after a month of spying ;) Little background: Several yrs ago my wife and I bought a used 91 EB Explorer 4x4...
