    Tranny fixed for under $200

    I have a 2001 Trac that has been suffering from the 1-2 slip for the past 6 months. I finally brought it in to a very honest shop for their evaluation. The shop owner Kenny (Kenny's transmission, Baton Rouge, LA) said there were no codes stored and suggested that he service the tranny (fluid...

    towing shocks

    We just got back from a trip to the beach and pulled our pop-up. Although the pop-up is small it has a lot of tongue weight because of the front storage. My '01 squats more than it should so I'm going to put new shocks on it. I've read several mesages about this and I've decided to use new...

    rear diff. leak

    We just made a 4 hour trip to the beach pulling our pop up and when we got there I found out that the rear diff. has been leaking. It seems to be leaking from the front seal. It has been slinging around underneath. I noticed that it looks like it had been leaking for a little while and all of a...

    Loading scooter in bed

    I just recently bought a scooter and plan to carry it in the bed of my '01 Trac. I bought a ramp that was wide enough for me to walk the bike up into the bed. I was wandering if anyone has done this before or maybe rode their bike or ATV up on the ramps of their Trac. I weight around 250# and...

    power steering shudder

    My '01 ST has been doing the shuddering bit when I'm at low speeds and when turning the wheel at a stand still. I looked up the TSB on this subject and it gives a long proceedure on replacing the power steering pump, cooler and a check valve. Then it said you may still have the shudder with the...

    Buying advise

    My parents are going to look at a one owner '02 Sport Trac today with 67k for $11,500. I have an '01 but I've only had it 3 months. I've had a few minor issues with mine but I love it. Are there any things about the '02 that they need to look for in the way of problems.

    Painting center console

    I bought carpet to put in my '01 Trac and I was thinking about spray painting the siver part of my center console while I have it out (it's pretty scratched up). Has anyone done this (painting console) and maybe have any pointers or advice. Thanks

    Call me stupid

    I'm probably not the first one to do this, but I feel like an idiot. I was changing the coolant in my Trac and after flushing the system twice I was tightening the drain cock and the head of it broke off. Now I'm going to have to stick something into the drain to back out the part with the...

    Muddy Waters

    I just recently bought an '01 Sport Trac that obviously has been driven a lot off road. The underside was full of dirt and all the places the detailers missed are dirt stained. My question is this. The antifreeze has a lot of sediment almost like mud in the reservior and what I can see in the...

    Dying Sport Trac II

    I had recently sent in a forum concerning my '01 Sport Trac acting like it was going to die when I would shift from drive into park. The rpm's would drop and the truck would kind of sputter and then rpm's would come back up. I replaced the IAC valve and it did not help at all. Any suggestions on...

    Dying Sport Trac

    Sometimes on my '01 Sport Trac it seems to almost want to die when I shift into neutral or park. The RPM's drop then come back up. Been doing this about a week now. Any ideas as to what it is?

    Growling!!!!

    I've noticed on my '01 sport trac that sometimes when the truck has sat up that it makes a growling noise when I first crank it. It sounds like a diesel truck starting. Any idea what this might be?

    Air conditioning Burning smell

    I just recently bought a used '01 Sport Trac and I've noticed a plastic burning smell when I first use the A/C. It is not the "musty" smell. It goes away after a minute and doesn't do it until the next time I use the A/C again. The dealership did tell me they replaced the drive belt and...
