Just listed my Chrome Cobra R's and Brand New Saleen Sway Bar in the Wanted/For Sale section of the site....just thought I'd let you sportsters know, I know the Saleen Sway bar is tough to come by...

I know you are probably all thinking "child lock"....but that is not the issue. My right rear door will not open from either side. The inside handle had been broken for a while, and it wouldn't open from the inside, now all of the sudden it won't open from the outside either. It may have to...

Anybody have either the Ford Racing FR500 wheels or the 10th anniversary Cobra wheel on their explorer? Don't even know if they would fit, just assuming they are similar to the Cobra R's. They are both here on this page...

I'll be graduating this may and moving on to the real world and I think it's time to think about getting rid of the good old explorer. I just passed 182,000 miles today and I think in the near future it will be more costly to own/repair my explorer than it would be to finance a new car. My...

My AC has stopped working lately and even after getting the system recharged it still doesn't work....where do I look to next?

I got some new lights the other day....click my link to check them out. I think it's the 3rd pic down the page. Let me know what you think!

I finally got new shocks put on....found out I still had the factory shocks on....and only 155,000 miles. I got monroe reflex shocks. I've only been a few miles on 'em so far but it already feels like a whole new truck.

I have my cobra r's off for the winter and am looking into a new set of tires. Last fall they were getting really noisy because of extremely uneven tire wear. Sucks because I've had em for 2 summers...probably 15-18,000 miles. I doubt there's anything to do besides get rid of them and get new...

I stopped by my local Ford Dealer today inquiring about the 2003 Explorer. None of the sales brochures are out yet but the salesman pulled out his own booklet about all the new models and let me take a look through it. There are many minor changes including an optional rear DVD entertainment...

My dad's looking to get a 2002 limited and also wants to get some custom wheels. (trying to be like his son ;) ). He put me in charge of finding some nice wheels for him to choose from. Anybody have any suggestions? Any good web sites to go to? Does anybody have a pic of a 2002 X with 17's...

Anybody know when the 2003 Explorer is due to be on the market? Also, are they changing anything from the 02 model?

I'm gonna be taking a road trip in a week and a half when school gets out. I'm heading from here (New Hampshire) down to visit my brother in Melbourne, Florida. My X has 142,000 miles on it and has never had any major problems. What should I get done to it before I take off? My brakes were...

Well, spring is here and it's time to get to work. I started by taking the bugshield off...it came factory so it has been on for the life of the truck. I'm still getting used to it but I think I'll like it better. I also lowered the front 1.5" via the torsion twist. Finally the front looks...

I was wondering if anybody had the turbo exhaust or the X-spec 3" exhaust on their V8. I'm trying to decide which way to go. The turbo exhaust is 2 1/4" and "barely louder than stock" ($310). The X-Spec is 3"with a 4" tip ($390). Anybody know anything about either?? Thanks

Well, I'm not one for putting stickers on my truck...I hate them. I'd much rather a clean look, but my brother had to buy me a sticker for x-mas and now I dunno whether I should put it on or not. It's one of the Calvin stickers - he's peeing on a Yankees logo :D The overlapped "NY". If I had...

I used the awesome instructions on this site to replace the lights behing the guages...very easy...nice job whoever posted them. Anyway, now the ones that I replaced are brighter than the other ones :( Guess I'm just gonna have ot replace them all!

I've been adding some pictures to my web site. So far I have a few new ones....and more are on the way! Here's the link: 96 Explorer Let me know what I should do next! I'm looking into a DVD player and monitors to make the long hauls to the mountains a little more enjoyable for...

I found a really nice Blaupunkt DVD/CD/MP3 player at this site... Dead Link Removed It's on sale for $289.00!!! I really want to get that and a $300 5-6" screen and mount them both in my center console. I'd probably put the monitor in the little cubby right below the AC controls and...

My dad's in the market for a new SUV and he's turning to me for advice. If he had to chose now he'd go with a '02 Limited Explorer loaded with everything. He needs his V8 power and sunroof/leather etc. My vote is for the X5 but he doesn't want to spend that much. He'd rather a loaded X than...

I finally got my Cobra's off today, tomorrow I give them a real nice cleaning then the'll go down in the basement till mid April. Anything I should know? Is there any protective stuff I could put on them like a wax or something? Also, should I store them flat or standing up...or does it even...

I came across a really sweet "Cow Bar" at this site...it's on an X-5 - the third picture down the page Cow Bar I always thought these were called bull bar's. Oh well. Anyway, does anyone know if they make one like this for explorers?? That may look real nice.

So I took my X to my local ford dealer for new rear brake pads and rotors. They called me and told me my emergency brake pads had rusted and basically disentegrated so I need to replace that too. Problem is it's an older style setup so they have to put on new springs, new this and that and a...

I need to get new rotors and I'm trying to find some slotted ones that will fit my AWD X. I only need rear ones. Anyone know where I can find these? Thanks!

Today I noticed an annoying scratching/squeaking noise from the left rear wheel. It isn't like it's every rotation or anything, it's just random....strange thing is it stops when I put the brakes on. Any idea what this may be? Thanks!

I picked up a VW magazine from the post office the other day that somebody had left behind...it's called "The Real Source" Inside it I found a few possible useful products. *Primer coat for plastics called "Flexible Bonding Clear" which can be used to prime plastic bumpers before painting...
