    2002 Sport 4wd auto- part under steering column-what is it?

    Thank you for responding. The bolts are there. I can feel them, but needed to use this to see them. Lots of wires an connectors in the way. I really do not want to be disconnecting them unless I really need to. I will look further tomorrow.

    2002 Sport 4wd auto- part under steering column-what is it?

    Hello, Someone else did some work on this 2002 sport and this part is left over. I am almost positive it goes under the steering column in the inside under the dash. I can find the bolts it should mount to, but cannot see an easy way of re-installing with out disconnecting a bunch of wires...

    Thank you for your efforts. I am almost positive it goes under the steering column, just a question on how to get it in there with all the wiring in the way.

    My photos/schematics/diagrams still available.

    I will see if this works. I think I found where the part goes, but, quite frankly, without disconnecting a bunch of wires, I am not sure how to get it installed. Or which is front and which is back. It would be installed with the U 'upright'. If I have the correct location, it is under the...

    Thanks for the input guys. I took a look on the local CL, and $1500 to $2000 for 2 doors, but less miles, seems to be the ASKING price. Some have been up for a while. Remember, this is in SNOW country.

    How much wt can you put it back of a 02 Sport? 500lbs?

    May need to move a heavy piece of machinery about 60 miles. It weighs at least 500lbs. Most I have ever had in back is about 275lb and I noticed about a 1in drop in the back. Is 500 lbs pushing it? I will need to fold the back seats down, so all the weight will not be in the way back, and I...

    High Mileage SOHC's Explorers

    178K on a 2002 sport. Fuel pump at about 110k, and an alternator this summer. Oh, and the ball joints etc at 100k or so. Runs great and this summer when driving like a little old lady I got over 22mpg twice in rural driving. Mileage seems to really suffer after it gets below 55-60 degrees.

    Lower seat cushion padding

    I had a similar/same problem, it felt like I was sinking down in my front drivers seat (02 Sport cloth). I thought the foam had given out, took it to an upholstery shop, and they said it was common for welds on the springs to break. They took the seat apart and welded the springs up and put...

    On the 4wd not working, do 97's have the problem where the electrical motor to engage 4wd stops working because a 'stopper/bumper' get worn out and the motor goes beyond it's limit and stops working? Something like that. BTW, how can you not tell if the 4wd is not working in snow? Just...

    Hello, I am going to try selling the tube running boards from my 02 Sport. Other than calling a dealer and asking for part numbers on other years, is there a way to find out what other years/models the tube RBs will fit? Thanks.
