How does the front and rear rotors remove on a 1997 4x4 explorer with
V-6? On the front rotors there is a large retaining nut on the axle,

professionally installed about a thousand miles ago or so.
While driving along at 55,  I spotted the temp gauge all the way up in the

    I think I have  front wheel bearings on one side going bad on my 95

Can anyone recommend fog lamps for my '02 XLT which really do cut
through pea soup rather than just look snazzy?  I'd like to mount the
lights nice and low where Ford would have put them had they been
