Hey guys, just a quick question. Can you take a 4R55E out of a 96 Ex. and put it into a 1991 in place of a A4LD? I am pretty sure you can't but I just wanted to make vere sure. If you can't, is there any way to modify either the tranny or engine to make it fit? My 1991 A4LD has been dead for...

So, I was just doing some light trails with a friend out on their property when I sunk into a hole and bottomed out. I started spinning tires like crazy trying to get but to no avail. About 15 minutes later we finally got my Ex. pulled out and it looked like she had been shot and bled to...

Well, I would like to change the fluids in both my differentials, tranny, and engine oil. Luckily engine oil is a no brainer and I think I am good there. But I need some help on the others. I searched them and got a lot of write ups about mostly 2nd gen ex's. I need to know if there is a...

Hey guys I know there are a lot of threads out there on mufflers and each ones performance but I was hoping to ask your opinion. I have no problem with installing a muffler from the cat backwards but I don't know which one to get. I have a '91 V6...obviously, and I want to get a louder...

Hey guys I have been reading around and I have been trying to find out about RPM's at certain speeds. Well the other day when I was on the Interstate it seemed that my RPM's were rather low. I don't really know so I was trying to get some opinions or comparisons to your rigs. Is this normal...

Ok so I have been asking questions on here for a while now and I have been reading a lot of threads. I have learned a lot too and think I have an idea for what I want to get. I want to get about 3-4 inches of lift, just enough to fit 33's without rubbing. I don't plan on doing any aggressive...

Well guys this is going to be a long one but that's just because I want to be clear and list all the symptoms. I just recently bought a '94 ex. off of a friend and fixed it up. Well I thought I did and now there is something new that I have noticed. I usually feel this particular shudder...

Hey guys I am really sitting with a dilemma. I already own a '91 Ex. and I recently bought a '94 Ex. from a friend. I originally thought about keeping the '94 but later decided that I liked the '91 better and so now I am going to sell the '94. They both had different wheels on them and I am...

Hey guys I think that this is going to be a really technical question. I just recently bought another Ex. except this is a '94 XLT. I bought it from a friend and I have been hearing this funny sound that sounds like plastic slipping gears. (I know your saying what the heck am I talking about...

I was in a junkyard today that had a lot of BroncoII's. Many of them had a swing gate that attaches to the truck about half way up the rear hatch. My question is can I take one of those off of the BII and put it on my 1st Gen. Ex? I don't know if the body is strong enough to hold a tire and a...

I have noticed that on the front bumper of all 1st Generation explorers there is a 4-5" wide piece of plastic that is screwed onto the bottom of the bumper. It pretty much just looks like it extends the bumper, but instead of it being metal like the rest it is just plastic. Is there any...

Does anyone know if there is a how-to thread to make the first Generation Explorers have 4x4 High. Also what are the benefits of having this opposed to regular 4x4? I have been looking but only found threads on 2nd Generations. If that thread works for the first Gen's. then please let me know...

I am looking to get about a 2 or 3 inch lift on my 1st Generation Ex. However I am weighing the options and I am not sure what to go with. I am only looking to get some bigger tires and I don't plan on doing any major trails. But I need to find out with spending $150-250 how I can get that...

Hey guys I am very confused and really hoping to get some advice to fix the problem. I recently fixed my shifter motor on the t-case and I can now finally move in and out of 2WD, 4WD, and 4low. So now when I put the truck in 4 WD I have both my driveshafts spinning out of the T-Case. Then the...

I am thinking of getting a body lift for my 91' 4WD Ex. I will be doing some minor off roading every now and then but nothing serious. I want to get a body lift because I don't think the amount of time that I actually get out there in the mud constitutes a suspension lift. I also only want to...

I am new to this site and am still learning. I tried to find as much as I could but got no real answer that applied to me. Maybe its out there and I just can't find it?! Anyway my 4 wheel drive is not working at all. I have an automatic transmission with auto 4x4 and Low. There are no...
