10 days ago, my wife's 2016 XLT 3.5L Ti-VCT stalled approximately 5 minutes into driving after she went to dinner and would not start again. She described trying to restart it like it had a dead battery, and said somebody tried to help her by jumping it, but it wouldn't start. She was 175...

Greetings all, and thank you in advance. A week ago my wife's 2016 XLT 3.5L N/A stalled on her in at an intersection and is still fighting me, which has prompted me to start going through a lot of systems on the car, but that is for another thread. Today, while working on it, I located this...

255/70R17 is about a 31x10 and 265/70R17 is about 31.6x10.4

Taylor makes both a 8mm Spiro Pro and a Thunder Volt 8.2 mm for the 4.0L. They can be found on page 8 of http://www.taylorvertex.com/PDFS/ApplicationGuide.pdf. I'm looking at installing the TV 8.2mm on mine sometime in the future. I had a set of their 409 Spriro Pro's on my 92 civic and they...

15 MPG on these is even very fair. 20 MPG is awesome. I would like to get 20 out of mine some day. Average after tires (not the best driving conditions either) is 15.7 or so. I lost about .5-.6 after tire install, but went up to 265/75R16 from the stock 235/70R16, so only loosing a half MPG...

Thanks. I'm probably going to pull the plugs tomorrow and check them...if I have my tools with me. I don't know if I am in 4x4 or not. I haven't put it in 4x4 for a few weeks and I know that it came out just fine, but I'm wondering if my auto may have kicked in and not kicked out like it was...

To remove the trim around the radio, you need to basically pry it off...you can do it by hand, but most suggest using something like a butter knife to get it loose. Once you get it coming out, disconnect anything you can on it to gain some space. Two screws at the bottom of the radio and it...

I know this is a dumb question, but have you double checked the settings on the stereo to make sure that the bass is at least midline if not up all the way? On basic radio, my stereo doesn't put out a ton of bass even with it turned all the way up...on disc though, bass is pretty good. If...

Don't know if I am experiencing a problem or not, but here goes the situation. 2004 4.0L 4x4 just so you know. For the past almost two months now, the only real time my X gets out is on the weekends, driving from work to home and back. I have to travel over the mountains and through the...

Independent Rear Suspension Explorer aka 3rd & 4th Generation Explorers.

The electric fan would reduce drag/resistance on the engine, freeing up available HP and possibly freeing some MPG.

Yank the idea of a TB spacer as they serve no functional purpose other then psychological hype. All claims have been scientifically destroyed...other then that, you could be looking at: Exhaust - 10 hp 10 tq Intake - 7 hp ? tq Tune - 11 hp ? tq Wires/Plugs - No Idea, but I would do a...

Go to http://tirefactory.com/virtualwheels.cfm. This application will allow you to put different wheels on your virtual vehicle and see how they look.

Install looks great. I have a 400W Black and Decker (no perm install yet) that hides on the floor behind my center console. I also carry a surge protector and that is where most items will get plugged in to as I can run 4 to 6 plugs at once vs. 2 (cell charger, laptop, printer, etc.). I just...

2. 265/75R16 or 70R17 stock with no problems. 3. Lifts are available from a few different places, but to my knowledge, none are available in stores. 3.1. RoadBully Off Road offers spacers...mount to the top of the strut to increase ride height/ground clearance/wheel well clearance. $250...

What about mounting them inside the center counsel? Close and concealed.

Does your X have the factory Sub? I've been curious about mounting an MP3 Changer in mine, but am not sure if the wiring would be the same.

Monroe shock selector app says Monroe Sensa-trac 71398 front and 71322 rear for stock (not saying that I'm right), but those are the numbers and SS2's. I don't know what they would go on. I know there are ways to find out, but don't remember off the top of my head. First let me say that...

Ben, Thanks for the quick reply, and to answer the question, yes both "replacements" that I listed there are the same type and whatnot as the "stock". I used data from the Monroe Sensa-Trac struts. Stock is listed as a "SS2" type, so I filtered my data to only contain "SS2" type then did...

JCUZ, Thanks for the link...I really wish that I could have one of those. Only a few things that I would change about it, but I want one...I may end up having to go to a fab shop and have something built in the future. Also, I do understand the :us: vs :australia language barrier. Years...

So this topic has been brought up time and time again, but this time I am running data on it. We have been looking for longer travel suspension components and based on what I am looking at for "stock replacements" from Monroe, one limiting component is the struts (yes, I am aware of the...

You aren't used to "Yank" language yet??? Just messin' with you...First pic you posted is a "Bumper" and the second one is a "Bull Bar". I wish we could get those "Bumpers" here or at a decent price if they do have them over here. EDITED: Does anybody...even from an overseas country make...

With my 265's, the ride height is about 1.35" higher then stock and it feels like more then that. If it is high enough, it is all up to you as it is your vehicle. I personally think that these rigs 7.5" taller then stock is a bit too much. I'm looking to add around 2" more (springs and struts...

Math is just a bit off...if stocks are 29" and you go to 33", you gain 4" of tire, but only 2" of lift...so 5.5+2 is 7.5"

Isn't that program sweet? My parents own one of the stores up here in Oregon and I use that program all of the time. I've even done a few runs for people on here so they could see what theirs would look like.
