98 XLT 5.0 (3.73LS), factory tow package, with 112K. The top end was done with a new comp cam and retuned at 102K.
Blew the top off of #1 piston about 3 months ago. The engine just went to the shop last week and is coming back as a 331 with Eagle rotating assembly and a set of TMH on hand and ready to install.
Previously owned an 06 EB 4.6 AWD, Sold with 235K Mi
Currently have an 06 Limited 4.6 AWD with 136K
Sold the EB due to driveline issues. Made weird noises around 65-70, vibrated the vehicle so asked a friend that owns a dealer to locate me a new one and I got my new one on a deal. Still see the EB running around though, looks rough compared to when I owned it.
2008 ford explorer xlt 4 x 4 ,4.0l v6, 145,500 miles tranny replace at 145,350 due to old radiator leaking antifreeze into my trans. Causing the gears to get burnt out. But before the rebuild never had a problem no kicks or slips. I'm running a 30" led light bar, halo fog lights, smoked tail lights and interior red dome lights, soon to be 2 12" subs powered by a 1500 watt amp.
2010 EB 4x4 4.0 83k. 1 front hub replaced under warranty. Excellent vehicle which my wife drives daily. I have a very high opinion of it and strong attachment to it. The sound system shames the 460 in the Cobra and the Bose in my 12' CTS. It also cake walked the ice storm a couple of years ago.
Had a 1997 Eddie Bauer 4.0 had 170 when I sold it did a ton of work to it. Saved it from the junkyard bought it with a snapped transmission the transmission was in 2 pieces reason found out 3 months after burning 2 t cases because the original owner totaled the front and put the wrong ratio front diff it was a 4.10 rear with 3.73 front in auto 4x4 not good lol I disabled 4x4 till I found out why after the second t case. I miss that truck it was a Frankenstein truck had a 99 5r55e in it and a 96 t case with a 98 engine that I didn't know until I put the right t case in and had to make a custom harness. But any way now I have a 2008 explorer Eddie Bauer 4.0 has 102500 on it now has had the transmission rebuilt, the rear rebuilt, ac condensor replaced, repainted a few panels to make it pretty again and did minor repairs to make it back to original.
