    05 explorer popping out of reverse

    I have an 05 explorer. Transmission was rebuilt 2yrs ago. My explorer is popping out of reverse as soon as I push the gas pedal. Has this ever happened to anyone before? I'm hoping it as easy as being low on tranny fluid! I pray!! I'm willing to listen to ideas if anyone has any. Thanks so much

    Upper control arm and ball joints

    Hi, I just changed my front upper control arms and ball joints. My stearing is very sensitive now. Is this a natural thing from putting new ones on? It was very easy. It was only 3 bolts.

    Mach system

    Hi, I am going to convert my mach sub and amp to aftermarket. I haven't taken the old one out yet. I'm wondering, do you need a shallow mount sub or just an ordinary subwoofer? Also, is it very hard to convert to a 10" sub? Thanks for all the future input
