    New Project 2.2

    Having had 1992 Explorer XLT (Wish I still had that one) and a 2001 Sport Trac, thought it was time to start another project. Your assignment Mr. Philps, should you chose to accept it, is to make it stronger, and more able to go where no one has gone before. (You did notice there was no...

    LED dome lights

    Having read the posts about changing dome lighting over to LEDs, I looked into it: Radio Shack LEDs around 2-3 dollars each cost way too much. Online LEDs are cheaper, but I don't need 100 LEDs and resistors. Looking around my area there doesn't seem to be an electronic components supplier...

    Rear End swap

    I know it's been done newer into older, but I'm thinking of going older into newer, taking the rear end from a 92 EX and putting into a 2001 Sport Trac. Are there any issues I need to know about in doing this. Both have drum brakes.

    BrooklynBay: Some questions for you.

    Brooklynbay: Some another questions for you. I know that to flat tow an explorer 4x4 I need to disconnect the rear drive shaft. Do I also have to do the front shaft? or Can I pull the shift motor and put the truck in neutral and leave the drive shafts on. This is a 2001 sport trac.

    Question for Glacier991and/or BrooklynBay

    I had the A4LD in my 92 4 door 4x4 rebuilt at 88,000+ miles. The Tec that did the rebuild told me that he puts 1 to 2 pints of motor oil in with the trans fluid. He said, he does this cause trans fluid has poor lubricating qualities. That rebuild went 150,000+ miles. The question is. Was that...

    Ok guys I'm in way over my head. I've got 4 codes on my 2001 Sport Trac, P 1000 (not real worried about that one, yet) P 0171 (this I'm guessing could most likely the intake) P 0230 and P 0231 ok know what the code says, but what do they mean. Oh also the ABS light is on all the time...

    A/C computer ??

    This is a new one on me. Took the 2001 Sport Trac to get the A/C checked, they have had it for two days now and can't tell whats wrong, but the guy (mechanic ?) did tell me "well guess I have to check the A/C computer". Didn't know the was an A/C computer.

    towing a 01 sport trac

    Is there a kit that can be installed on the trans to enable an auto explorer to be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground?

    need A4LD help

    The trans is on its 3rd rebuild, and the builder is having problems getting it right. Went in because it wouldn't shift into the higher gears. Got the truck back and seemed very tight and would not start out in first gear. Back into the shop. Second try, this time it seemed to work better...

    shift motor replacement

    Ok the shift motor on the T-case finally died, should be an easy fix. NOT! The motor coming out has two plugs the one going in (new motor) only has one plug. Anyone already done this? Need to know what wires need to be spliced.
