My 98 was backed into by an 18 wheeler and I now need a driver's front door as well as a front quarter. Any chance those are available?

Looks like my 98 Explorer is having a similar problem now. For the last year, my key has not worked in the drivers side door. So, I would unlock from the rear gate, then open the rear passenger drivers side door and reach up to open the drivers door. NOW…the drivers side door will not lock...

Hello, I own a 98 XLT SOHC with 4wd. She has 91,000 miles on her. The last 10,000 miles or so have sounded a little weird. When I accelerate from a dead stop it sounds like the 4wd is engaged (or trying to engage). The sound is very hard to describe. It basically sounds like it does when...

Does anyone have a clue as to why I would get better gas mileage once my check engine light has come on? I have been commuting to work the same way for a very long time, so the type of driving I do and the hwy/city mileage has not changed. I have been watching my gas mileage since I bought the...

Do you still have the diagram? If so, can i give you my email address?

Try this too. http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113217&page=1&pp=20

I think i know what is happening. I am actually in the same predicament as you. If you open the door and look inside the lock area on the actual door (not the frame) you should see a wire that is hanging loose. It is a very small, thin gage wire. As the lock mechanism moves up when you try...

UPDATE!!!! Thanks to all for your help with this. I wanted to let you know that replacing the lugs with new McGuard lugs did the trick. Since the switch, I have not had a single problem. Thank you all very much for your help.

Scotti, did you ever find that link regarding the install of new dash lights. My fuel light just went out and i am looking for some instruction as well. thanks, nate

i will second that!!!

sure does.

splash, whose rig is in your photo album from chubfest 2003 (the big, black X)?

Do you think it is normal for the pulley arm to move (actually, it almost looks like it is bouncing from side to side)?

Greetings, I have just replaced my serp belt because of a squeeling issue. The problem was imediately corrected and all was fine...until a month later when a chirp...chirp...chirp sound crept under my hood. Unlike the squeeling noise, the chirping does not go away after 5 to 10 seconds. It...

Any chance someone out there has a black 2nd generation X with black rims?

FYI, i took my X into my local dealer last week with 71,200 miles on her and the FORD guys took care of me. I had the "recall" work order done (M0012). It took them 2 full days, but she purrs like a kitten now. if it weren't for this site, i would have never known that i could get this...

Just wonderin' how many miles you all are getting on your BFG t/a k/o's before they have to go to the rubber graveyard.

well, since it is only Pro Comp tires, what do you all think of the PC all terrains? are they comparable to the BFG's?

sorry swak6287, but i am looking for 33's.

actually, while we are on the subject of tires...i have almost toasted my first set of pro comp X-terrains (33/12.5/15) and i think i may want to go another direction this time. while i dig the looks of the X-terrains, i really and truely do not go off road enough to warrant that kind if tire...

thanks a bunch!

Anyone know when 4wheelparts is going to have another "buy 3, get one free" sale???? cheers, nkrax

X'ers, i too have had this same problem for most of my trucks life (i have owned it since day one). My question is this...will any permanent/major damage occur if the problem is not fixed? in my case, the "pinging" only occurs for 10-30 seconds while at idle. once i drive it for a couple...

just thought i would bring this thing back from the dead. this guy is a riot. one day it's 31's. the next it's 35's. it is probably a guy with a jeep just messing with everyone here. comedy at its best.

The invoice on my 98 XLT 4x4 SOHC v6 says that i have the option "high altitude package" or something to that effect. Does anyone know what is different about an explorer that has this option? thanks, nate
