I have an annoying problem putting a child seat in the back of my 98 XLT.
Since the seat is split 1/3-2/3 and I put the seat in the center my kid will
lean to the left of the truck because the bottom of the seat has less
support on the edge of the 2/3 bench.

I just found out that I have a burnt out brake light and just tried to
change and was unsuccesful. There are 2 big screws on the top side of
the light but it seems that there are 2 more that I can not get to. Am
I missing something? Any advice would be appreciated.

Bought a used 93 without a radio.  I wanted to install a stock
am/fm/cass  that was given to me, I was told came from an explorer.
Now I'm having trouble with the connectors,
I have radio wires coming out of the radio slot. One set goes to a

Couldn't find a group for the Mountaineer, so I thought I'd try here.
I don't like the fact that the engineers didn't put a light in the
rear cargo area (at least mine doesn't have one). When I have the
rear hatch open, and am unloading or loading things in the back at

Anyone know if there is a back window fence available to install in my
93 explorer to prevent canines from jumping out with the rear window
open?  

I just got a new (to me) 2002 XLT.  The DRLs don't seem to be working properly.  Before I ask any dumb questions, are
they standard on this model?  If they're an option, how can I tell if I have them?
TIA.

I am about to replace the radius arm bushings for the second time on
my '91.   At about 91,000 I used NAPA poly bushings, and they are
needing replacement at about 140,000.
Any experience with the replacement rubber bushings vs Ford OEM

I have a 93 xlt that the driver side seat is just about gone. My backside is
getting a little sore riding on the metal. The fabric is decent shape but I
will need to rebuild everything underneath. Does anyone have and good
sources for supplies? Any hints? Thanks in advance.

A P1053 code just popped up on my '98 Explorer (V8, 94,000 miles). I know
that it means 'B2S1' oxygen sensor sluggish to respond. The manual lists
about 20 different reasons, before it gets to the obvious suggestion to
replace the sensor. The vehicle has been well maintained and I ...

I have been having a problem with rough idle in cold weather even after the
car is warmed up. I was wondering if it is a IAC valve problem.(I checked
it with a elec. meter and it is well with in limits at 10 ohms of
resistance) But I am wondering if it could be dirty or sticking. My ...

1996 Explorer XLT 5.0 AWD
In the past 6 months or so it's been difficult to unlock all the doors
from the inside using the unlock button on the driver's side door.  I
have to rock the switch between lock/unlock several times before the

A good friend of mine has a year 2000 VOLVO S70 AWD with a mere 35,000 miles
on it. I am posting this here because the VOLVO board is not very active and
the problem is probably something you folks know about.
My friends live here (Pittsburgh) but spent 6 months in Florida, hence ...

This is a recent problem, 2 days tops.  Sometimes when I start the car
it starts fine but then dies.  I have to keep my foot on the gas to
keep it going.  When I am driving and I slow down the rpm's drop fast
and the car can stall.  After driving a while it seems to be fine, but

I was thinking of adding a hitch to a 95 XLT.  Any idea what something
like this might cost?  I'm only looking to use it for a bike rack, or
cooler rack, so I really won't be needing the light wires, just the
hardware hitch piece.

I have a 95 Explorer and I'm trying to find out where I can buy the Kleenex
Travelers tissues for the console compartment. I used to be able to purchase
them at Walmart but I've checked the 2 stores near me and neither of them
carry them anymore. I know the vehicle is 10 years ...
