Hate to dig up an old thread but I am having the same problem on my 95 Ranger that has a 5.0 conversion out of a 97 Explorer AWD. Same thing, my CV boots keep tearing and slinging grease all over the bottom of the truck. To me it looks like the angle of the shaft where it comes out of the CV...

Answered your PM. Just so everyone knows, I painted the stock chrome piece using etching primer and black paint.

2003 XLT 4x4 4.0V6 198,000 miles. Exterior highlights: 2006-up side mirros, 2007 Sport Trac Limited wheels, 2006-up taillight conversion, clear turn signals.

Those are OEM Mountaineer gauges. They swap right over.

Please watch this video and tell me what my problem is. Im thinking either tires or hub bearings?? But the tires are almost new Kenda Klever A/T's and they are supposed to have low road noise so Im thinking I have some kind of bearing issue. I cant really isolate the noise to either side, but...

Great job

Or you could just do this for like $100 dollars. eBay.

Looks good. I figured they wouldn't fit as good with the aftermarket ones. I'm just curious as to what those would look like on a colored explored other than black.

Looks good. The ford oval just looks a tad high to me. Mine was the same way at first. I had to remove and reinstall it a little lower.

Here ya go. Here is what I did a while back. Looks even cleaner to me than the cap method. http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=308880

SO does anyone know of any tuner who has actually been able to provide a tune that modifies the transmission as well?? I contacted my local SCT tuner and he said SCT doesnt have anything yet for our transmission. He could give me a tune for the engine only. This blows my mind since the 6...

What are you going to go with? I would have maybe ditched mine as well but my wife likes it and she's not annoyed by the quirks like I was. Im just enjoying the oem style nav. myself.

I used all duplicolor paint from Advance Auto Parts. You have to sand / scruff up the chrome enough to take off the shine. Then you use a fine sand to smooth it out. Then you use a good ETCHING primer, this is the key step. Use a couple of coats. Let dry according to instructions and then sand...

I've noticed a slight miss or rough running when the truck is idling in park. Ive also noticed that during cold starts it has been idling a little rough. Nothing bad, just barely shakes enough to not be smooth. I definitely know its not normal. Stats: 2007 Sport Trac 4.6 3V V8, auto...

It may be different for you, but the lockpick was interfering with the CAN-BUS system in my Sport Trac. By using the switched feed in the sunroof circuit, it provided the correct delayed accessory circuit. If you just hook the lockpick up to the switched circuit at the radio, it will turn off...

What do you mean you're CD player doesnt work? Is it a 6 disc unit?

nice

Just an update.. Everything is fixed and working properly now. I figured it out on my own, but later on when coastal tech support finally called me back, they confirmed that what I did was "a" correct way to fix the problem. I cut the 2 pink CAN BUS wires coming from the lockpick to the 16 pin...

OK, new problem. I started the truck to go to work today and noticed the sat radio function was gone. I realized that when the truck is in the on or run position and the engine is off, it will see the sat radio box and work, but when the truck is actually on and the engine is running, it does...

I'm still not satisfied because I've had to do way more wiring and changing than you should have to do when you spend close to 300 dollars on something. As far as the door covering the back of the screen you mention, I had to actually break the plastic. There was no way those screws were...

FYI, you are a genius!! I got to reading that post and thought, hey wait a minute, let me go try something. My wifes 08 Explorer has Sirius, but we dont use it and it wouldnt even work with the aftermarket radio in her car. I went out and within 5 minutes was in business. I just removed the...

Nope
