    2001 Sport trac interior driver side floor is soaked

    I'm pretty sure the A/C drain is outside of the cab; have you checked the sunroof drain lines? This thread should help (for an older model X but still applies: leaking sunroof

    Just Found Out I Won a $75,000 Lincoln Aviator!

    My dad won a 2007 Mustang acing a hole in a local golf tournament, Uncle Sam got his cut come tax time as it was viewed as "income." Little known fact however, if you win a prize (cash or otherwise) valued over a certain amount (I'm sure number has gone up since then) you are recognized by the...

    Brake line question

    It should work, I can't imagine the fittings or length would be different. That said, when I had to redo mine on my Ranger, I just reused the fittings and used that NiCop line to replace the rotted section.

    Slowly Going Away

    I'm just trying to find one that already has it first, unless I find the right one that's in too good of shape to pass up then I'll go that route.

    Help Please: Parts difference from Gen 1 and Gen 2 sport

    I think the list provided is about all that will work between the two trucks without a significant amount of fabrication, wiring, etc to make the engine/transmission work. Probably your best bet is to either replace/rebuild the transmission in the 97 or part it out to offset the purchase of...

    Help Please: Parts difference from Gen 1 and Gen 2 sport

    You didn't mention whether your 97 (by your sig) is 2wd or 4wd or if either truck has an automatic or manual; those issues aside, the disc brake rear end in the 97 should bolt in the 94. Other items that may swap: -If its a 4.0l OHV the long-block should swap over -Seats -Speakers -Rims/tires...

    2020 Ford Bronco!!

    Wasn’t aware there would be two broncos, most of what I’ve read leads me to believe the “baby bronco” was to compete with the Jeep renegade and the like if so, snooooore.

    My "Modified" Stock 97 Explorer

    To add to this, a higher trim level XLT would have the lower front bumper with fog lights, I'm sure you could find one in your local junk yard. Either swap the hole bumper or just take the lower section and it appears your truck is already wired for it, so plug-n-play.

    Undecided repair

    Sounds like the compressor is toast, one of two options, replace it or don't. I'm at a similar place with my 02 XLT, once I sort out my ABS light; my non-functioning A/C will be next. Its paid for, and gets me to work faithfully everyday so, I'm not adverse to spending a little on it.

    My First Explorer, 2000 EB

    While I see you upgraded to a 7 Pin connector, if you remove that red cover you'll see its an 8 pin connector with 4-pins in use. Check in your factory jack storage area and you'll likely find the other section of that harness...

    My First Explorer, 2000 EB

    If that's under the rear bumper that should be your plug for the stock trailer harness.

    98 ranger took a beating, trying to revive

    Are you sure the front of the frame isn't tweaked? I'd imagine being sandwiched liked that could've compromised the front cross member the rack mounts to and probably the control arms as well.

    97 Rear Bumper Reflectors

    Does anyone know the dimensions of the reflectors in the rear bumper of a 97 mounty? I don't have access one at the moment and I'd like to get some LED spot lights to throw in their place.

    My '07 Limited V8 'Garage Thread'

    I think the correct fix would be a new radiator, but it seems to be an inherent issue with aluminum radiators with plastic tanks. IMHO the best fix would be an all-aluminum radiator but those would have to be custom-made or find a universal piece and adapt it to fit.

    Interceptor Owner's Vanity Plates

    While not an Ex but related to the topic, in the area I grew up in years ago a guy picked up a former sheriff's deputies UC car...a brown mid 90's Caprice with steel wheels. His plate: NOTACOP.

    How to: 2wd to 4wd conversion

    No worries @Dan Whitaker I just happen to catch his truck was a 97 and thought I'd chime in. I'm with you on the look of the site, still trying to get used to it myself.

    How to: 2wd to 4wd conversion

    @Dan Whitaker AWD would have to be 5.0. But to answer @Tony b 5.0 question, use the search function and look for "BW 4406 swap" there is tons of good information in those threads to get you from AWD to a true 4WD.

    '99 Ed.Bau.-Swapped power seat for manual NOW airbag light on

    You'll need to transfer the old seat belt buckle from your old powered seat to the new manual one. The old one should have a wiring pigtail attached to it. Plug it back in and the airbag light will go away.

    96 ford explorer sport 4x4
