For the T-Stat housing, what band is preferred? Thank you -

2002 Trac, 190K. Is it ever advised to replace some things proactively? Truck runs great, but wondering if I should be replacing things like idler pulley, tensioner pulley, water pump, thermostat, thermostat housing, radiator, etc. Have done things like plugs, wires, brakes, shocks, ball...

Silly question: Is it in Park?

Kevin - Sorry to hear about your father also. No question is a dumb question!!

I had good luck with the Firestone Destination LE3

Replaced original/sealed tie rod ends at 90K. Truck now has 180K. Have replaced tie rod ends twice (Moog/greaseable), and now another one is wore out and needs replacement. Have always greased them every 3K with oil change and tire rotation. What am I doing wrong? Should I get the...

Awesome!! I ordered this and will report back after I am done. Many thanks - Bill

Recently, I noticed that the driver's side door on my '02 Sport Trac is not closing easily. Upon further inspection, the hinge pins are wore, causing considerable movement. New upper and lower hinges are over $250 each! Can the hinge pins be replaced on this vehicle?

Thank you, Todd. I didn't think of any of those. What would you check first? This truck has about 160K, and I have records from PO that front hubs were replaced by the dealer around 70K.

'02 Sport Trac, 4wd. Brakes grind when applied in reverse. Pads looked great, but I replaced anyway. Still the same thing. What am I missing? Many thanks - Bill

2002 Sport Trac. ABS works great in the snow and ice here in WI. Problem is when it rains, ABS activates on the slow stop when wheels are not slipping. Problem will continue for a day or two after rain goes away. No ABS light. Bite the bullet and replace the sensors?

Surprise! Original OP checking back in - And I like your Galaxie too!

Hello All - I have heard about front swaybar link replacement many times, and have replaced them on a number of our vehicles. Do the rears ever need replacing? I am noticing a knocking sound from the rear of my 2002 Sport Trac 4WD. If replaced, would you go for Moog, Motorcraft, or ?

After all of my angst, it ended up being a small leak in the lower radiator hose. What a PITA to access!

Got under our Sport Trac (4.0) to change the oil today and noticed a bunch of coolant all over the lower cross member and on the floor in front of the truck. Reservoir is still relatively full. Can't see exactly where it is leaking. Where should I start?
