    headlight assembly question

    what parts store are you looking at? Advance and Autozone only have one set on the website. Same exact one that should be on your BII now. Advance has them for ~$10 cheaper than autozone though, but you can find them on ebay for a lil cheaper than those.

    4.0 SOHC plastic thermostat housing

    When i did mine i popped the bushings out of the upper, then the upper fits on lower perfectly. I guess it really wouldn't matter though. I used a small socket and a hammer to push mine out.

    01+ engine in '98

    Hello, I have searched the forums but can not get a clear answer. I have a '98 4.0L SOHC 4x4 explorer and it seems like its going to be cheaper to drop another engine in than fix all the issues with it (timing chain, guides, thermostat housing, etc).

    +1 I just did this today, and taking the wheel off and removing that flap makes it a whole lot easlier. I didn't use any swivels or anything, just some small extentions.
