    Smoke on startup, oil on threads & ash buildup on left 3 spark plugs, using oil Help!

    Hello all, My 1994 explorer has started running rougher and rougher and using more oil. When I first start it, it cranks for longer than usual and there will be a puff of blue smoke (It then doesn't smoke at all). It uses about a quart of oil every 1000ish miles. I just changed the...

    Thumping in the front under feet when in 4wd - 1994 explorer

    So the past two times I've used 4wd on my explorer, I'll get a thump right under my feet every say 30-45 seconds or so when I'm driving at more than 20mph or so. Its not a thump thump thump or anything like that. My truck will just be driving along. Then I'll feel like someone kicked the...

    Brakes worked fine for months then suddenly spongy. Only fronts work? No leaks. Help!

    Hello all! I'm just curious if anyone still makes a SOL adapter for a gen 1 explorer (maybe its the same for 91-01 or whatever). I DO understand its cheaper to just weld new perches. I'm just curious about the adapters. Perhaps if I ever wanted to put it back the way it was without...

    2d vs 4d explorer transmission differences?

    Hello! I'm planning a swap in my 4d explorer from auto to manual. Just to make sure I'm not forgetting anything: I found a manual explorer for next to nothing. Its 2d & 2wd. My explorer is 4d & 4wd. Am I going to run into any issues or missing parts using that truck as a donor...

    94 explorer A4LD RPM jump between 2nd and 3rd

    Hello Everyone! I want to preface this by saying I understand that a used A4LD transmission is a failure surrounded by a nightmare wrapped in a leaky box filled with problems. I have a 94 explorer (with 142k miles) that I purchased for next to nothing with a lot of problems. 1 week after...
