Hey all. My name is Tammy Smith. I am from Kuna, Idaho. I bought my '91 Explorer just around a month or so ago and am loving it. It needed alot of fixin' up, still does, but I really am enjoying doing so on my own. I joined this club right after I bought it, and am glad I found this site! Sooo much to offer in way of helping with fixing up and such....
My X is a '91, 4.0L V6, XLT. 5 Speed Tranny, Red/Black with grey cloth interior. Its a bit beat up both in and out, but overall in fairly decent shape. I've had to replace ALL the fluids in it, obviously as I had NO clue what had been done to it as the guy I bought it from got it at an auction so he didn't have the history of it. Had to have shocks done, front wheel bearings, rear axle seals, rear brakes. STILL needs fuel filter change, coil spring isolators, radius arm bushings for the front, TIRES TIRES TIRES LOL! The tires on him now are old de-studded snow tires....that leak air slowly and most of the tread is gone.
On the way is a rear cargo cover (Thanks Joe!).
I've replaced: left rear window regulator/motor, power mirror switch, cigarette lighter, turn signal switch, rear wiper motor, both front headlight bulbs, both rear license plate bulbs (which both need new housings bleh). I would like to do some more fixin' up, but right now can't afford it. He can really use a carpet shampoo, some new headlights, foglights, NEW STEREO for sure lol (has stock stereo). Those are the major things that I can think of right now.
Anyways, thanks for the welcome everyone I hope to be a big part of this board when I get my $$ to join the elite club
hehe.
