So Steveo67, DO you want the filter? DJ

Filter has been taken. I have a brand new Amsoil Panel Air filter EaA122, free to whomever can use it. It was for my 1997 Explorer but I decided to get a K&N filter. I'll cover shipping costs to you. All I ask is you do something good for someone else. DJ

I had found that post already but wasn't sure if there was a difference if you had the rear controls. I guees there is not difference. Thanks for your help. DJ

Is this the same procedure if you have the rear air controls??? DJ

I guess that shows I'm not the mechanic I thought I was!!! LOL Thanks again DJ

I pulled the plugs on the transfer case and still have the noise. Could it be the rear pinion bearing? Is that something that can be changed without pulling the TC? DJ

Thanks for your help I appreaciate it. DJ

I have read that other with TC problems unplugged the unit and drove in 2wd. Where is this plug, is it the switch bolted to the TC or is it located somewhere else? DJ

Didn't mean to double post. I did not see my first one so I thought I did something wrong and posted again. Sorry DJ

I don't know if it the TC, but it only makes the noise when I take my foot off the gas and start to slow down. otherwise the truck runs smooth and quiet. I'm going to unplug it and see what happens. Any other ideas? DJ

So the only way to determine if my problem is defintily the TC is to pull it? Can I unplug it and drive the truck in 2wd? DJ

I have a 97 XLT w/control trac. When I let off the accelerator to depress the brake pedal I hear a grinding noise, like when you miss a gear in a manual tranny (i have automatic). Any ideas what this could be? Wondering if its the transfer case because the truck drives smooth, shifts fine ( a...

I have a 97 XLT with control trac. My transfer case BW 4405 is making grinding noises (like a manual tranny when you miss a gear). Can I unplug it and drive the truck until I get a chance to rebuild it? Basically shut it off and drive in 2wd all the time? Ay help is appreciated. DJ

The springs you mentioned, is there a tool to help remove them? Do you happen to know if someone has documented the procedure, other than the lousy Clymer/Haynes manuals? maybe someone on the forum? I think if the orifice tube is easy to get to, I might as well replace it while its down. Any...

Well, I usually do my own work but my explorer has never needed anything other than the usual maintenance. I have no problem doing the work but just want to make sure that its a do-able project. The accumulator basically blew a hole in the side of the cansister so I don't have any pressure to...

I have a '97 Explorer 122,000 miles V6 SOHC. My accumulator rusted and has died. The shop said my evaporator core is leaking too. I was told $1000 to replace parts and recharge. I am thinking about replacing the parts myself (about $200) and then taking it back to the shop to pressurize...

I have a '97 XLT w/103,000 miles. I have a rattle that I cannot find and it's getting worse. I only hear it when I drive and then I have to be going down a narrow street for the sound to bounce off the buildings. It rattles when I hit bumps but when I shake the truck by hand I hear nothing...

send what you have... I guess it could be as simple as a u-joint. It'd be a good place to start. If you could and its not too much trouble send what you hasve to me at bls2dpj@yahoo.com I'd ereally appreciate it. Daniel

I have a '97 XLT with the "control trac" here is my problem. As I slow down I have been hearing a clunk, clunk, clunk noise that is getting louder. I looked under the truck and found nothing loose or broken but I did find that my front drive shaft has a lot of free play in it. When I say a...
