Hey all, 1996 5.0L engine. I need to replace my harmonic balancer but all of the ones listed as compatible to my truck/engine will not work. The taper diameter/depth on the inside of the balancer does not match up with the taper on my crankshaft, nor the taper diameter/depth of the balancer that...

Hey Guys, I'll start with this--everyone loves a badass picture of a beloved Ford Explorer, so here's mine: I've been having some issues lately with my transmission on my 1996 5.0L Explorer. My Explorer is a '96, but when I did my 2WD -> 4WD SAS swap, I installed a 1998 Explorer 4WD...

Hey guys, I know this topic has been brought up in the past, but I cannot find anything that's helped me figure out whats going on with my speedo so far The speedometer started going out several months ago, and by that I mean it didn't happen suddenly; it would randomly drop out and then drop...

Hey Guys, Over the last 2 weeks I have taken apart and pieced back together several systems on my 1996 5.0l This includes replacing my old aluminum oil pan with the stamped steel one. This required shorter fasteners to hold it on since the aluminum had thicker bosses than the stamped metal...

Hey guys, Quick question-- I was replacing my exhaust manifolds this past weekend, and in order to get to the driver's side bolts, I had to remove my intermediate steering shaft from the firewall to the steering box. (I have a SAS'd explorer, so custom shaft and frame mounted steering box)...

Got a big update for everyone! First off, I moved up to Georgia and soon after bought a 2006 F-250 I've done some minor work on it, but it was already bullet proofed with 130k when I got it. I resolved a long start issue, EGR delete, and straight piped it. I installed a 2.5" leveling kit and...

Hey guys, Im heading up to Greenville, SC in the next week to jobsearch but I'd really like to do some offroading while I'm up there since I'll be driving my EX all that way. (im from Orlando, FL) I was wondering if you guys know anywhere in the SC/BRP area to go ride around in, or if any of...

Hey guys I've been looking real hard for 2wd to 4wd conversions. The only ones I've come up with are either 4.0l v6 2wd to 4wd or 5.0l v8 awd to 4wd. I have yet to find a single thread that has a v8 2wd to 4wd conversion. So lets make this thread the first one! If anyone found another v8 2wd...

Title says it all guys, as soon as I hit 30mph i start getting this humming from the tires and it seems to be coming from the front right side. When I turn to the left, its much more evident and is a bit deeper meaning my front right side is making the noise. I researched this and many...

Hey all, I've been around this site for awhile but haven't made a thread about me yet, so I figured I'd go ahead and make one for your entertainment. I've done a few mods here and there that I got the ideas from on this awesome site, and I'm more than happy to show them off to ya'll First...

Hey guys, got my explorer well over a year ago and I think it just happened by chance, but my parking lights up around my headlights have customized themselves, and I like it. Normally, they look something like this: But mine have done something different. There are 3 lights total...

Hey guys I've read it a million times-- you can fit 31"s with a tt and maybe shackles in the rear. Any bigger than that you'll need to do some cutting. Heres my question: Found a set of tires 31.5x16.6x15 (thats 16" wide :eek:) and I'm wondering how well they will fit. Will i need to trim...
