    K&N Dyno sheet

    I was just on the K&N website looking at the FIPK for the 04/05 V8. They have a dyno sheet posted that says it's for the 4.6, but the numbers seem awfully low. I'm just hoping one of the more 'experienced' members could chime in. The dyno sheet shows 158.85 hp and 169.56 tq. With the start...

    4x4/RSC Trac control fail safe?

    Hey all. I've been having issues with my 4x4 self engaging on dry roads. I figure it's a rear speed/ABS/wheel sensor issue. I pulled fuses 17 & 18 from under the hood as suggested in other threads. I also went as far as pulling fuse 8 (4x4 shift motor) fuse as well. Its still engaging the front...

    A TPMS circumvention thought...

    I just put new 32" BFG's on a set of 2001 Ex Sport wheels. These wheels won't accomodate my valve stem sensors from the stock 17's. (One of the reasons I took them off before). I got to thinking as I was driving with my stock wheels in the hatch flat as my TPMS warning was going off. What if...

    Buyer BEWARE

    I bought my 05 EB in October of 2005. I paid extra for NEW tires. I had issues getting the rubber but I thought it was resolved. Fast forward 9 months. Auto 4x4 has been funky, constant pull to the left while braking, 4x4 over-engagement, except when I had my 32" DC's on. Back to stock...

    Does anybody know how hard it would be to install an NP242 transfer case into an Explorer? I know there are many threads about various BW cases but I was curious about the NP series.

    Not what I was expecting...

    So today I was going to do the BWM on my truck. I jacked it up to access the t-case to try and trace that brown wire to somewhere inside the cab. Thats when I discovered this: I think I may have figured out why my Auto 4x4 has been going crazy lately. BTW, that is the driver's side rear...

    After reading through page after page of threads, I can't find any really good pics/posts of 3 rd Gen CB installs. I pulled the radio out of my 2nd Gen and I'm hoping some of you will help me find a place to install it in my 05. So, if you have a CB in your 02 or newer, please post some...

    My new Ex...

    This is what I replaced my 98 Sport with. It's 1 2005 Eddie Bauer with a 4.6. As you can see it's stock at this point. I'm open to opinions and suggestions as to where to go from here. I'm undecided as to whether it's going to be lifted for off roading or start working on a street truck. It's a...

    Ex is sick...

    So this week I'm "stuck" ( ;) ) driving my wifes '03 XLT as my Sport decided to cough up both its steering and brakes. When it rains it pours. I'm waiting to hear from the shop what is wrong with her. Hopefully nothing too serious. I haven't even unpacked the wheels I bought from Donner yet!!!!
