hey guys, i could really use your help on this one. i have been struggling lately trying to get my 1991 explorer running right for a couple months now. the problem started a while back and was it running perfectly until it started missfiring intermittently. one second the power would be...

Already thought of the same thing, I even pulled everything apart and reinstalled it, even after that I still had the same problem. I think I'm just gonna run it, I got everything to line up enough to get it put back together.

I'm looking for some info on how to remove a Detroit locker in my rear end. I figured out how to remove the cross pin shaft, but cannot seem to get the axles pushed in far enough to remove the c clips. I even put 3 clamps on the brake drum to keep the axles in. I only need like another...

I need some advice on putting my front diff back in place. I just rebuilt the diff with all new bearings/seals/races and installed a set of 5:13gears and a Detroit truetrac LSD. After I bolted the front pumpkin up to the beam, I went to go slide in the driverside axle. It fits in there just fine...

you used to live in crystal lake? you used to see me driving around or what? haha

hey guys, as some of you may remember a few years back i was wondering how long my dana 35 ttb was going to last on my 38.5" boggers. I recently purchased some 5:13 nitro gears after tearing into my front diff last night to replace what i thought was just going to be bearings and install a...

So what do you guys think? Will the truetrac work, will it not work? I read about a guy on therangerstation that he was running one up front unmodified for years and it worked flawlessly, but then other guys saying the gears have to be switched around. Ugh, so much info, I never know who to...

Heres the link to 4wheelparts... It says that the truetrack LSD is for rear axle applications only.. Is that true? http://www.4wheelparts.com/Drivetrain-Differentials/Dana-35-TrueTrac.aspx?t_c=12&t_s=237&t_pt=101501&t_pl=5459&t_pn=EAT912A569

Alright, thanks guys for all the responses. I was leaning toward an LSD anyway, looks like that will be the choice I go with. It's cheaper anyway.

here are some more pics

Hey guys, im thinking of trying to take my explorer to the next level (without going any bigger just yet) and was wondering what everyones opinions were on what type of carrier to go with. My front diff is currently open and my rear has a detroit ez locker, and i absolutely love it. Would...

HAHA! yes sir, that was me! I totally forgot how much i missed driving this thing! Here's what ive been driving as a daily for the past few years.... 1986 saab 900s manual, with almost 300k on the odometer

Sorry i havent posted anything in a while, my explorer has been sitting for over 2 years now and i just got her running yesterday! She fired right up with no issues! It is time however for a front end re-build. It needs new pinion bearings in the front diff and some new wheel bearings for sure...

Honestly t doesnt rub that bad on the radius arms, it does a litte bit on the sway bar though. but it really depends on what offset your wheels are, mine are -44. the further you push the tires out, the less problems you should have. Are you planning to run 38.5s on a dana 35, or do you have a sas?

Just wanted everyone to know that the ttb dana 35 is still running strong! No problems whatsoever!

Just wanted everybody to know that the ttb dana 35 is still running strong! no problems what so ever!

now i did, but it was like 2 inches tall before. but now its all the way up by the ac compressor.

..... anyway, im very happy i get to keep telling everbody that im running those tires on stock axles!

Finally tore it apart! Suprizing rezults!! Alright guys, Im sorry its been a long time since my last post... just been workin a lot and very busy with things. Plus I diddnt really know what to say. Anyway, about a week ago I finally got a chance to open up the differential to see what I broke...

unless.... Depending on what broke inside the diff cover, I might try and re-build it!

I should have knocked on wood Well guys, I had a feeling that as soon as I posted a coment on how well my stock dana 35 was doing, something would go wrong and sure enough............ it did. earlier today I went to go shift her into 4wd and as i rolled forward i felt a lot of resistance and...

Just wondering why you want a 1st gen explorer so bad. Im just curious to how everyone else sees the 1st gens.

Yes, the tires rub when the suspension flexes out, more so in the back than in the front. Not to mention that I still have not tackled the 3in body lift yet and am still only on a 5.5in suspension lift, guess Im just lazy:D. But Ill get around to it, Ill need to if Im gonna try to fit 39.5's...

LOL, thats pretty much what I was thinking. But nevertheless... Im still shocked. And yes, on the same terrain, at the same spot. But its not like Im takin her easy, I probably get her muddy 2-3 times a week!

sill holdin up! Alright guys, its been about 3 months or so since i put the 38.5in boggers on my stock dana 35, and I am elated to report that the little axle who could has not faultered in even the littlest way! Absolutley nothing has broken, and i must say Ive beat the crap out of it! Ive had...
