Hey all, It's been awhile since I had to post a question here but I think my lack of proper terminology is preventing me from finding the info I need on the site. As the title states, I am in the middle of a 4x4 swap on my 2000 Sport 2WD. I am not doing anything fancy, just the basic...

2000 Ford Explorer 2WD 5R55E 123k miles Hey all, I noticed today coming home from work that when accelerating from a dead stop, like a stop light, my truck would rev a bit around 20MPH. Like, once you hit 20ish, it revs for maybe a half second, maybe ~500 RPM at the very most, then returns...

I was washing my truck earlier and when everything was said and done, I moved to the tires. I did my usual routine of rinsing, spraying and rinsing again and when the tires dried, they had a weird color or ring around them. I do not scrub the tires rough or anything and no cleaner seems to...

I could really use some advice here guys. I was planning on getting a new exhaust/muffler for my truck later next month and was confused as to what would work nice on the 4.0 OHV. According to this site, and every other site I've looked at, everyone recommends Dynomax's Super Turbo or even the...

Alright, I've got one big problem (stupid for most) that I could use a little help on. My truck has one of those little stickers on the drivers and passenger window that says blah blah blah "Protected by xxxx Security Systems" or something like that. I can't really say why, but I kinda like them...

I have to admit I feel a little confused and disappointed because I would've thought there would be something about this. I'm planning on changing the speakers in the rear of my truck, a 2000 Sport, so it has the massive plastic interior piece covering everything, no panels or separations. I was...

I really haven't found too much info for this stuff on bodywork, just mainly for audio and stuff so I figured I'd ask. Within a week or so, I am planning to tackle some rust spots on my truck and looking at the fiberglass resin seems like the best bet for me currently. Now to get this out of the...

I've been playing and looking around at this site (dangerous thing to do :)) and sort've decided that if at all possible, I'd like to add my 2nd gen lettering to the side doors. Basically, I replaced my old gate and scraped off the lettering and with the new one I did the same and replaced it...

I just noticed that my rear defroster does not light up with the rest of my lights when I have my parking lights on. I mean the actual button itself, not the little orange light to say that it's on. Everywhere I look on this forum has talk about LED conversion for those buttons/switches but I...

Came across this while browsing and I have to say that I will never understand how stupid some people can be. http://youtu.be/Wx4mKtlJeIs Basically, it's someone absolutely destroying a fourth gen by hitting train tracks as hard as they can. You can see the front end underneath breaking...

It's that time, my Explorer is due for a good, deep cleaning. I've actually been kinda late on my waxing, last wax was like last August so I'm trying to get into a better schedule. However, last time I looked at my wax for fun it looked like it had separated, you know like sour cream or...

Recently I've come across a stereo which looks like a great buy and worth it, but I'm not too sure of its credibility. Its a Dual stereo and I've been looking into stereos to replace my JVC. My dad wants an aftermarket stereo in his Cavalier to play CDs and he was thinking of taking my old JVC...

My last search on this topic saw a dead thread and I didn't think I would get any responses, so pardon this post. I want to paint the air vents in the dash black as I think it would make a great contrast to my tan interior and match all my black accessories and trim. However, I read that some...

Ok, so I posted this under the sticky post a few days ago, but not sure if it gets attention there. I need to replace a crank angle sensor on my 4.0 OHV, but when I look up parts at Pepboys, or any parts store for that matter, I always get an option w/ or w/o a step on plug. I have no clue what...

I love you guys, but hate posting here. Posting here = problems. Problems = money. I don't have money. But enough playing. This morning, I started my Ex up and let it run for about 1-2 min. Very slight squeak, but my serpentine belt was pretty shot so that had to be changed. And basically long...

I've been here awhile, just not a big poster and it made me jealous seeing everyone else's Explorer on here and mine unknown :(. _________________________________________________________________ Info: -2000 Explorer Sport -4.0 OHV V6 -87k miles -2WD Current Mods: Under the Hood/Performance...

Hello, been on this site for quite a long time, I just don't always log in or post too often. I've been having a lil problem later regarding coolant lately and hopefully I can find some help here. First off, I have a 2000 Explorer Sport. 4.0 OHV, 87k miles, beautiful condition, VERY well...
