Well this is bizarre, and I'm not sure how it happened: Went to twist up the torsion bar adjustment bolts on my Sport trac last night, and had a rough time with the Driver side--- Noticed that it looks like the bolt is bent.... Any ideas on extraction? Should I just go with impact and hope...

Howdy everyone- I remember doing it on my 96 explorer, and I remember it being extremely easy to find and do-- But I"m having the toughest time finding how to tighten the ebrake on my sport trac. On my 96 sport, I remember there being a slot on the back of the rotor that I slid a flathead...

coming soon!! (lol sorry for getting you all excited) Got in a minor traffic accident today.. old junk lawn chair in the road caused one car to stop, someone to slam on their brakes behind him, me slamming on my brakes behind them, and the guy behind me--- BAM. Might cover me for...

Did a 5 tire rotation this morning. Went out on my break at work just now and saw this That's my wheel lock key... Luckily, the dumbtards that work at the last tire shop I took my truck to used an air torque wrench on the key to take off the lock, instead of a hand wrench, and buggered up...

Howdy EF friends! While reading up on replacing the front timing chain tensioner on my 1999 Explorer Sport SOHC, I read about an Oil restrictor plug (which is supposed to look something like the size of a pencil) which goes in at the same time. Tore everything down to this point...

Hey fellas - Anyone know if the owner of this Explorer ((this is the craigslist ad) has ever been on EF? I'd like to know more history of it, and figured with it being this modified, it's likely somewhere on here. Maybe from a while ago?

Got a whirring noise up front that has been bugging me. Mainly right around 27-35 mph- and seems to disappear at other speeds. Thought it was wheel bearings - but after replacing both, noise remains. I'm thinking it may be the pinion bearing after reading up across the web - but I'm not...

Howdy fellas - Picked up my truck from the shop yesterday, and noticed some type of leakage happening inside the passenger wheel well area, on the passenger side of the engine. It looks like coolant.. The work that was supposed to have been performed was only with the transfer case (chain...

Thinking about ordering some custom 4x4 stickers - specifically one with a colorado flag in the background. Think this would look good on my Trac?

In short: Is there a list anywhere of which data is available through the OBD II port of the Sport Trac? In long: I have an app and a bluetooth obd reader- but some items that the app can read, can't be read through our OBD II port. The only way to test it though, is to add a gauge, or...

Howdy folks! Enjoyed an adventure this weekend, but had the second showing of some symptoms while in 4x4. This started actually happening the last time I was on an adventure, but this time, I used 4x4 a lot more, and it seemed to be a little more constant, and rotational- so I'll...

Couple notable postings on the local CL - Here's a 2004; clean, white, 4x4 - with leather/heated seats, and only 51 K miles!!! $11259 http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/3101489068.html and a rolled Sport trac, high mileage - probably talk him down a ton...

Well as some of you may know, I've been thinking of a good design for a self-built rear bumper/swingout carrier. At this point, I'm considering building a 'Tiregate' instead of the rear bumper for a few reasons - specifically cost, ease, and design involved. I don't know if this is a great...

So I happened upon a camper shell for pretty cheap, and trying to decide if I want to snag it up... If I do, it is red, so it will definitely need SOME SORT of paint job. Should I go with Charcoal Beige (the same color as my truck) for (hopefully) around ~$350 to repaint- Or should I go...

*** EDIT 5/8 - Please note that this issue started out as a misdiagnosis of Transmission issues - and now I"m thinking it is Fuel Pump issues.**** ***EDIT 5/10 - Removed from 911 thread, no longer 911 Well, after my excursion in the mountains this weekend, I get in my truck to drive to work...

http://g.co/maps/gyy3c We got a free night at the Ameristar, so we're turning it into a small adventure... First time messing with the Bureau of Land Management site.. wish I'd known about it before! :)

I just pooped a little at the thought of having tube doors on my sport trac.. Has anyone seen this done on a Trac, or does it seem do-able? Anyone wanna race me to a finished product?! :)

Thinking about attending this intro to MIG welding course. http://www.clubworkshop.com/index.php?option=com_jevents&task=icalrepeat.detail&evid=1160&Itemid=54&year=2012&month=04&day=28&title=intro-to-mig-welding&uid=b73060b9f8639a9399c3cebea4ab6e45 There's a place called Club Workshop...

So I noticed my gas door felt a little funny - so I reached a finger inside, and touched the spring, which then popped off.. Anyone got any tips/tricks to get that little booger back in there? Otherwise, I'm going to have to use velcro or something to keep it shut.. lol :(

Picked up some thick rubber from Ace Hardware for $3/ft. (been looking for something to use for a couple weeks, and this seemed to work best) Basically, I eyeballed the measurement, and riveted the rubber to some existing holes... The 'before/after' aren't a true before and after, it's...

http://www.accuautoparts.com/axledetails.jsp?parts_id=PTX:1822-LR This is the cheapest I've found online.. got my spare 33" tire today, and ordered a spare cragar soft 8 (so it will look good in the future hanging on my swing-out tire carrier), so I think this locker is next in...

http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2945225539.html THIS IS NOT MY TRUCK - just came across the ad.

Ordered a 10 pack of these - white (194 socket) 20smd LED bulbs - for various accessory lights (license plate, glove box, etc - anyone know where else these are used?) Also picked up a set of white (3156 socket) 68 SMD LED reverse lights Next up will be 6000k HID headlights /...
