    Windshield Wipers not working at all... Please help

    My wipers simply do not come on, I've never had any problems in the past with the intermitten functions so I am assuming it may be the motor. The only thing that throws me off is that the washer function doesnt work either. Are the two associated with each other? All fuses check out fine, and...

    $2 billion lawsuit against Ford Re: Explorer

    another testimonial: My sister crashed her 95 Eddie Bauer XLT or the Garden State Parkway at 70 miles an hour into the median, across the highway and down an embankment. The truck was up on two wheels and came down back on all fours... Probably saved her life, and saved her from any serious...

    3.73's and 32's?

    32's and 3.73's are definately not ideal when off-road... I have trouble going up some hills while in 4-HI with that combo... Can't wait to do a gear swap!

    Truck shakes and vibrates at idle and on the road.. help!

    Hey guys.. My 95 4.0 has been having a problem lately... It is constantly shaking and shuddering, at any rpm.. while at idle, or at any speed on the road. Acceleration and power feel like I'm behind the wheel of a 3 ton golf cart. It also has a constant sputtering noise coming from the...

    Explorer Projector headlights?

    I think i single angel eye for each side would look cheesy... especially on an explorer... But I like the idea of retrofitting a projector into the DC headlights.. I think your best bet would be to take a trip to a junkyard, get a couple projectors, and cut up the stock headlights first...

    32-11.50-15 ?

    It all depends how much "trademark explorer buttsag" you have... I had 32's mounted at stock height in the rear with no butt sag at all, and they rubbed very badly inside the fenderwell during any sort of suspension compression... I would take your time, and put those add a leafs in, and...

    rims on an 03

    with every wheel diameter you go up... no matter what tires you use, the ride will be rougher and rougher... handling improved, yes, but its one hell of a stiff ride. My dad simply went from 16's to 17's on his 03, and was a little displeased at the ride.. he got over it :)

    Pro comp shocks?

    be careful of where you order your procomp shocks from... it took me well over a month to get mine from 4wheelparts.com ... They never even said they were on backorder or the fact that they had never even been produced until a month after they had been ordered. Once I received them, they were...

    CD Changer 6 disc Cartridge won't eject..help

    Tried posting this in the audio forum, but had no bites... I'm having trouble finding out why the CD changer on my sister's EB is not ejecting... the motor seems to be working, as there is a noise when you push the eject button... only nothing comes out. I ran a search and couldn't find...

    5.0 swap in second gen?

    After reading tons of useful information on swapping 5.0's in first gens using the handy search feature, I was dissapointed at the amount of info out there for 2nd gen 5.0 swaps. I was wondering if someone could possibly shed some light on it for me. With 130k on my 95 explorer, I can tell...

    possible hydrolock... help please..

    You guys freakin rock... Without the help of this website, I probably would have bought a new engine by now... after what appeared to be about a gallon of water (slight exxageration), and 3 oil changes (probably another one before I actually drive it again), My engine appears to be running just...
