Someone got her ... :salute::usa:

Thought I'd pass this along .....FREE '96 body with L.S. rear end in So Cal area. Door sticker AXLE code >> D4 / L.S. https://offerup.com/item/detail/fadd10e3-9e26-366b-8917-a08dd073f6ea

I second torque converter...

/\ Okay... thanks for the heads up amj441

/\ I'll report my outcome when I give it a whirl... probably mid next week some time. I'll make sure to have super glue and zip ties handy....just in case :)

Thanks! STRANGE name though huh....it's like it's named after where it goes, inside the orifice / tube... Still like to hear if anyone tried shortcut approach on removal / installation ....

Hey gang, What is this part he's pulling out of evap core tube at >>> 28:32 mark of video ...? It sounds like he's caller it a "needer and tie" ??? ALSO, I've heard a major shortcut in replacing these evap cores in our Explorers is just removing / getting heater core hoses out of the way...

At 1:09 mark you can hear a round in his pistol ignite inside van, he lets out a yelp thinking oh no, there's another charge against me, and that gal was tripping that she wasn't quick enough to get her meth out of the van before he torched it.

My thoughts are: Just say NO to bath salts ! (well all drugs for that matter) On second thought, unbeknownst to the Public, Fire Dept., Police, maybe he and unseen filming crew were filming "Escape from L.A." ...the long awaited sequel ! ! Snake Plisken was about to appear on the scene until...

This is what happens when, after going through the extremely stressful job of accessing failed part in very limited tight space in van engine setup, you realize the cheapo non-oem part you purchased on ebay wasn’t worth the savings after it fails in traffic 2 weeks later. - SEE VIDEO: Even...

/\ Awesome!

I went to store around 20 miles from me (worked in other duties in area too) yesterday and purchased and installed alternator in Jeep in THEIR parking lot, so I could avoid drive back returning core / for core charge refund, was assuming at first they wouldn't even care about cores in this...

Bummer you guy's didn't score / score big.... I'm getting alternator for my Jeep tomorrow (long story why not today) for $10 ! ....got a high amp alternator for my brothers Dodge caravan (with handicap electronics / accessories) today for $11 ....normally $226!

** Unfortunately employee moral is down to where I've noticed they don't BOTHER to answer the phone...and maybe partially due to busyness, though I think it's former, so if you experience that and your "local" one isn't too far it's best to just drive over there and see what they have...

/\ TRUE ! I had wished I heard about it a month ago...instead of yesterday, granted at first they didn't mark down at the current extreme levels (from what I just heard) but prices were still really good a month ago.... all the expensive Calif catalytic converters were SWEPT up etc by...

Call your local one now and see if they have your water pump...alternator...etc.. currently in stock and how much....

They're closing all stores in WESTERN part of U.S. ....so if in this area call them now for BACKUP PARTS....DIRT CHEAP ! ! ! ...Everything is crazy low prices... New Water pumps for $4 etc ! ! ...on and on...

PASSING ON.....as title states....they are closing down in western US and liquidating....I got NEW (not refurbished) Explorer water pump for $4 ! ! ! ....also new one for Dodge Caravan for $3.60 ! .... e fan relay for $3 .... and more..... got $350 worth of parts for under $25 total ! !

According to "Joe Dirt's" post here IT WILL ... https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/1999-sport-body-panel-interchange-information.302127/ I believe I read on other posts as well that the fenders are same....just the doors on the Sport are longer than front doors on 4 door version.

Cool, Yeah I've read on here they really corrected the overall issues with the timing chain cassettes / guides in the latter years, starting about 2002 and then more improvements later on. Good to know, thanks.

*WHICH engine in your 2010?

This isn't my forte, and possibly compound issues here from all I was reading, but to rule out something, does the alarm go off when you open OTHER doors too? ....maybe you didn't try that yet, but let me know outcome on that....with all the variables going on here maybe a partial mechanism in...

YOUR LITTLE 1ST GEN AIN'T INTIMIDATED BY ANY FULL SIZERS.... it's up for the task !

Marvel Mystery Oil works good too to remove lifter sludge / unstick lifters....

/\ Thanks Bidenomics! :mad::confused:.....at least we averted MORE PAIN with enough reasonable voters.... okay...end of my justified rant.

Man, you have not had good luck with that thing....sorry to hear....

Hmmmm something's awry if you still have "a" whine, it could be secondary issue like a failing belt tensioner, those can whine too but of course the power steering whine is enhanced while turning....so you have the loud whine still when turning? I assume you performed the bleeding procedure...

/\ You got a bunch of air in the system when replacing the resevoir, jack up the front end and do this air bleeding procedure...have bottle of fluid on hand to top off from over-spill during procedure....put cardboard underneath

Pretty amazing ...so many things could have gone wrong. Craigslist ad; Garage kept Explorer, never abused. Serious offers only.

You too brother ! Tell me the Explorer's NOW holding up....no major new surprises.. correct?

"what it's going to take to lower it to where I want it." You're going in the wrong direction! ...it's 4WD !

Thanks but that's still $10 for just two with shipping...not bad at all ...but I drove 2 minutes to this Dollar Tree and got these instantly for a $1.25...covers all doors. I did put those ones on my Ebay watchlist just the same. ...and with the confusion on sizes on all these threads I got...

Did you check the trans fluid LEVEL? ....if low will cause delayed shifting, could have a slow seal leak that's accumulated on undercarriage not making it's way to visible driveway spotting...thus assuming level is fine. Could be trans issue itself in which case I would siphon a little fluid...

** Maybe some weren't sure what I was referring to.... here's application.... "after" pic .... was bare metal / worn off prior ... My torx star fitting was T-47 ...the larger ones are T-50

Hey gang, Thought I'd post my own thread on this minor issue / fix, basically to ADD to some info of this thread >> 1/2" PEX = Door Anti-Rattle Fix This is possibly another 95-97 versus 98 -2001 difference......that being my 95 stricker shaft is smaller diameter than pasted thread examples. So...

My Explorer is specifically used for off-roading or hauling .... rear seats folded flat and it becomes a "Ranger" :) .....also when I have to do repair / maintenance on daily, drive it while the gasket sealant is drying on daily.

Yeah, that's expensive insurance, my basic coverage per year is $350 ...two vehicle policy so small price break.

You state FWD .....so I'm assuming you mean this has 4WD.....we have same vehicle. As Rick stated (as long as you don't let this engine overheat) you can easily get 300K out of it... testimonies of many with 400K and still going....same heads etc without internal work needed. You have a very low...

No, there's an anti-siphon / anti-gas theft mechanism/screen at the end of the filler tube.

Sometimes a failing CAM sensor will not throw a code right away.....one possibility....but it sounds like it's happened enough to where it would at this point. Maybe check for any frayed wiring near this or other components...maybe critter chewed on something and a wire's barely making...
