Long story short: Went wheeling last night, washed the truck and now theres a serious vibration between 40-70 KPH. Checked rear u-joints, no noticable play. Hubs not locked. Any input very welcomed, thanks.

Front axle is leaking gear oil...and has been for a long time. Ever since I noticed it it's only been collecting/dripping out the very bottom of the pumpkin. Today I crawled under to investigate a wierd noise and I noticed the inside of my tire and entire knuckle was covered in fluid... My...

K this has ####ed me out of 2 road tests now, and I need to fix it. My brake lights are intermittent. Sometimes the right one doesnt work, sometimes the left one doesnt work. I've changed the bulbs, and cleaned all the **** out. Ive wiggled the wires as far back as I could reach, and the...

Today I decided to put it in 4x4, so I switched the driver side hub, but instead of switching, the knob broke off. WTF? Theres still a screw with some plastic around it, and I'm sure I can super glue it, However, if I take that screw out, what will happen? It already feels like whatever that...

I don't know how much crack some people seem to be smoking, but we changed both radius arm bushings today, and it only took a little less than 2 hours. Granted, the truck had bolts instead of rivets for some reason, but these were stock radius arm bushings. Even had the metal heatshield thing on...

We recently put a used transmission, that was said to be not very far from the last rebuild, into my 92'. Sometimes when its cold, you get in start it, and put it in gear, and it kills the motor. It either pulls the RPM down to about 400 as soon as the gear grabs, then stumbles to 0. Or the...

I went into PartSource(I'm in Canada, eh?) and asked for the radius arm bushing kit. He tells me its 27.99... At first i was like WTF? It's only like 10.99 in the US. They didn;t have any in stock so they ordered one. I got there the next day and opened the box... This "kit" only does one...

How?!

Taking bets on whos truck has a D44 in it first.

I have Goodyear fuel injection lines connecting the 2 metal cooler lines (I had to cut them.) Theyre held on with regular hose clamps. In the past 2 days I've had the hoses split and blow off 3 times, but they werent the right hose. Now I'm leary as far as driving this truck goes...I dont want...

I have a 91 Explorer's factory subwoofer setup and am looking to install it into my 92. How would I do this? I know all about the interior panels and whatnot, I mean the wiring. Did Ford just use one wiring harness for every truck, meaning that all the plugs and stuff are back there? Or am I...

Hopefully I'm not crazy and someone knows what I'm talking about. I bought a 91 EB Explorer for parts. I noticed that it had a small shock absober going from the power steering pump to the frame. Why is this? The 3 other Explorers I've owned didn't have this...? Is this a positive thing to...

Sounds good eh? Yeah it's my RC rockcrawker, haha. I don't know where to post something like this, but you'll all love this haha. Sorry for the poor pics, cameras flash stopped working so indoors I have to use night mode or everything is all black, but with night mode the...

K. My reverse gear finally cacked. Have to rev it to 5000 RPM before it barely even budges, so moneys on the band is screwed. i'm going to try out the extension pin, but that only buys a small amount of time. Being how a rebuild is $1500-$2500, and I also don't like other people working on...

Can this pin be purchased at any stores in Canada? Or can this only be purchased online and shipped to Canada? Also, I read that if too long, it could cause the band to drag. What could possibly happen if the band dragging enough to cause it to engage, in the opposite gear? (If that even...

My dad's trucks transmission won't go into reverse. It goes into drive and shifts from 1-3 perfectly(hasnt shifted into 4th for a long time.) When you put it in reverse theres a light (LIGHT!) bang in the floor, so I know something is happening down there. I got stuck in a snowbank and...

The tires on my truck sucked very badly in the snow, so I put on a set of my 31" tires. Question is: With an A4LD thats already showing signs of weakness, are these tires going to do a lot(if any) long term damage/wear to the transmission? The truck has 3.08 gears, which is why im asking...

K I put 2 tow hooks on my truck. Now I need to put 2 onot my dads. I had to take the bumper off, which did nothing. I remember there being things inside the frame which kept the nuts and/or bolts from being put in easily. I had to cut a hole in the frame on both sides. I don't want to...

First of all, snow is here, and it's really cold. First question: My manual hubs are freezing...why? I have to put thme into the lock position then hit them with something hard to convince them to lock. Second: Ever since it got cold, the 4x4 computer has been wierd. When it was warm and...

Ok I read that a speed sensor can cause the truck to not shift into fourth gear. I'm willing to change it now. But I'm confused. I've read that on 91-94's the speed sensor is in the rear diff, but I know theres one on the transfer case... Which is true?

What happens when you get an O2 sensor wet? When I flooded my truck the entire exhaust was under water. When I got it starter 2 days later it blew water out for hours. Could getting an O2 sensor wet cause an engine to run roughly?

A while back I flooded the engine, and it's never ran the same since. It started out as a misfire, then turned into stumbling, then a stall here or there... There were times it would run perfect until it was shut off, then start it back up and sputter and misfire... Now...it never runs...

One time going down the highway I noticed that at 100km/h(60 MPH) that the RPM was sitting at around 3100RPM. Before this point, I could have sworn that it was never that high. Should the RPM seriously be that high? That's with OD on, and I know it works. If you take OD off, the RPM jumps to...

SOA (Roughly 5" correct?) and 4" Springs and drop down brackets in the front? Would the pitman arm need to be changed?
