transfer case

  1. E

    Just drove home my new (old) 1997 5.0L AWD - transfer case issue?

    Just picked up my new used Explorer with 100k. My previous was a 2002 Explorer 4.0L. So the 50 mile trip home was my first experience and it feels very different than the 2002. Its also my first experience with AWD. So - no I don't think I'm paranoid but I am trying to figure out what the new...

    Transfer case question

    Question. So I found out I have a bad transfer case on my 98 explorer. My mechanic told me that I can "deactivate" it by removing a rod and the truck will be a rear wheel drive truck.
