Hey all, I've been away from this site for a while because I've had other vehicles. But I want to get another Explorer! The one I had was a '91 XL and now I'd like to get like a 97, 98, or 99...maybe a 00 if the price is right. 4 door, AWD, XLT or better. I was thinking of spending around 5...

Just incase anybody can make it there should be a fairly good turn out. More Info

I know you guys got an order of shirts with the attached logo made up. Well I was wanting to get some made up for the KC club. And due to a lack of coming up with anything better that appeals to both the off-road and street crowd, I would like to know if I could have permission to print the...

I was kicking around the idea of doing an American flag paint job on my 2 door Explorer. The maroon paint on it now is pretty faded and scratched up. I wonder if anybody else knows if it can be done cheaply. I'm talking rattle can paint or something like that. I don't have any painting...

I wanted to share a neat panoramic shot of a recent run the KC club had to Tuttle Creek. Panoramic Shot If you want to see any more pics of our runs have a look out our Photo Album. Thanks and enjoy!

I'm getting my tranny flushed Friday. Well more like dopping the pan, new filter, flush, and some cleaning up inside...real thorough for 80 bucks. I was going to mount my external in-line transmission filter and when he's doing servicing the tranny and has all the fluid out go ahead and hook...

I just wanted to let any new Explorer4x4.com members know that live in the Kansas City area to be sure to visit the local site. kcareaexplorers.com. We are getting into the summer months and will be having more activities/meet and greet type of events. We are always on the look out for new...

I've done my share of heater cores. And now I'm on my second one in the Ex. I swapped it out fine, new thermostat even and new 50/50 coolant. And it even blows out plenty of heat wear as before it didn't. But the problem is that it's still visably spitting out that vapor from the vents and...

Ya! It is really cool to be the first to post in a new forum! :D

I'm doing the timing chain on my '91 Ex. The 2 shop manuals I have do not make it very clear at all how to get to TDC. This is what I think TDC is right now. The pointer is right at the "0". The manual makes it seem like that missing tooth is TDC, and they want that missing tooth...

Well I'm 99% mine is shot. Or at least stretched out beyond it's normal limits. My '91 has got right around 208,000 miles on it. The valve train was completly replaced about 20 or 30,000 miles ago and has been running fine. However I didn't know at the time the timing chain was an...

First off here's the links... Dead Link Removed Dead Link Removed Let's see... There was suppose to be a hand full of Rangers and BII's going, but they were all a no show for Sunday when I went. My g/f and I showed up around 10:30am and then just kind of poked around for a bit. It was...

I've got a small leak on my passenger side of the radiator. It's right were the fins meat the side housing. I called one shop and they said on those they have to replace it with a new one. Are the '91-'94 radiators able to be rapaired?

I know there are at least a couple of guys here that have cut their front bumper down so it won't rub on the early model Explorers. I had an idea since every time I see a bumper that's cut like that it still has the exposed metal and doesn't look "too" good. I was thinking to cut of the...

I'm looking for a picture of a slammed Explorer. Lowered and some nice wheels at the least. I'd like to use the picture on the KC Area Explorers web site and possibly a flyer that would be printed out. So your permission would be needed to use the images. Just one or two would be...

Do to some recent intrest around these neck of the woods I've takin the liberty and started a real simple message board for us locals. Over time I've seen a lot of nearby Explorers. But hardly ever at once. So with this it might be easier to orginize a run or even a bar night or something...

Well I thought I'd shamelessly pimp out my own site. I recently bought a 1991 Porsche 944S2. So while trying to find out about the cars on the internet I never once found a message board like this one. Not even close. So I deceided to make my own and I am just spreading the word. So if you...

I've done some searching and didn't really find an answer to my question. Is there anyway to "check" the tension on a timing chain without actually tearing all the accesories off the front and actually looking at it? I fear mine is very loose. The engine has about 200K miles on it and...

These aren't from my truck, but rather a friends '97 F150. Apperently he was just driving and then a loud pop came from the engine. The pictures show the plug that lost it's tip. The bad part is that the rest of the plug is still somewhere in the engine. They've called the auto parts store...

I've done lots of searching regarding our beloved A4LD tranny. My problem is that it has a hard time shifting into 2nd when within the first few miles wile it's cold. Once it warms up it's fine. I found a link that talks about somebody and their problem with the A4LD and it's almost like...
