    Stumble on acceleration

    What could cause my ex to stumble right off the line fron about 10 -20 mph? It feels like I hit a patch of gravel for about 20 feet. I can feel the shake in the steering wheel. After about 20 mph it smooths out and runs fine. The idle is also fine. I've replaced the plugs and wires (autolite...

    What tools do I need?

    Hey guys, I'm going to a new do-it-yourself junk yard this weekend to get a set of four door rear leaf springs to do the conversion on my sport. I have to bring all the tools with me that I might need to do the job. The cars are all supported by the front and rear bumpers/frame, so the wheels...

    Door panel question

    I need to replace both of my interior door panels on my 98 Sport 2 door due to fading and bad armrests. I was wondering if you guys can tell me what years of door panels will fit? I found some on eBay that are from a 2000. They look different than mine, but he says they will fit a 95-01. Is this...

    Accel plugs - GOOD DEAL?

    Sorry, I originally posted this in the wrong year section... Anybody ever use these plugs? What do you think of them? If I'm reading this link correctly, it looks like one plug is $8.99, but right above it it says you can buy a set of 6 for $21.99. Sounds like a heck of a deal if I'm reading...

Sounds like a heck of a deal if I'm reading it right. The *Note* at the bottom says it's for a pack of 6 of...

    Off road lights on bumper?

    I train dogs for police and personal protection and I frequently find myself in low light conditions during training scenarios. It sure would be nice to have some extra lighting up front. I miss the spotlight on my old ex-police Crown Vic, but I don't think my Sport would look right with an...

    Ride quality after spring conversion?

    Hey guys I did a little searching and didn't find what I was looking for. I'm thinking about swapping my monoleaf in my 98 Sport to a 4 door spring pack. I'm wanting to cure the typical rear end sag and be able to put just a little more weight back there, but I don't want it to ride like a brick...

    Rear end clunk when stopping

    Hey guys, love the site. Now I need some advice. I have a '98 X Sport 4x4, 5 spd auto, 4.10 RAR. When I make a normal stop there is a clunk in the rear as soon as the vehicle stops. When I stop very slowly there is no noise. I can push down on the rear bumper and hear a similar clunking noise...

    Hey everybody!

    Hey guys/gals. I've been watching this forum for a while now, and I finally picked up a '98 Explorer Sport. It's going to need a few minor things, but nothing major. Hopefully it'll be a good daily driver for me. I drive about 100 miles every day, so we'll see... Just wanted to say hi!
