    A Few Gen1 Sport Trac Items

    Our '02 Sport Trac has been gone for two months now and I have a few items lying around with no home. All are shippable except for the exhaust (unless I cut it) but would prefer somewhat local pickup for the exhaust. +Right Rear Taillight- Stock assembly, no scratches +Factory running...

    Said Goodbye to our Gen 1

    With 241K miles on her and timing chain noise starting to rear its ugly head (and the A/C broken for about a year now) we finally signed up for car payments again, purchasing a private lease/one owner 2014 Fusion Titanium that we applied the Sport Trac to as trade equity. We had the truck...

    Testing Waters: 2002 Sport Trac Choice 2WD

    Been a while since I logged in, but have been a member here since 2002 when we bought our Sport Trac brand new. It's been a great truck with no major issues, but after 13 years (the longest my wife has EVER held onto a vehicle for, which shows how much she loved it!) she's wanting a smaller car...

    Double DIN Wiring Info For Future Gen 1 Installers

    I've been racking my brains trying to find a backup cam that we'd like for a decent price and finally, after the head unit sitting for three weeks, said the heck with it and installed the head unit anyway. I did wire everything so that when we get a cam it's a simple run of the video cable to...

    Anyone Replace Engine Cradle Gasket?

    Hey all, long time no post. Been a traveling fool for work and spent the last two years building a Cobra replica. Now building a '68 Mustang with my son. Anyway, the Trac is still going strong and believe it or not we've had the same rear bumper cover for almost two years! (long time...

    Upper Ball Joint Replacement Without Arm?

    While changing the oil on the wife's '02 last week I noticed a torn boot on the driver's upper ball joint. I checked it for play and there's certainly enough "clunk" in it to warrant replacement. The service manual (I have access to Ford manuals through work) only shows replacing the lower as an...

    Coil Pack & Livewires Install-Thumbs Up!

    I just wanted to add my comments here. I just installed the Performance Distributors Screamin' Demon coil pack and Livewires kit (directly from Performance Distributors as an early prototype before Zabteck had them) and it made so much of a difference even my wife noticed! [Broken External...

    Street Smart Design Cold Air W/ Pro-M 75mm Bullet MAF

    This is a Street Smart Design Cold Air kit intended for a 4.0 SOHC Ranger, but will work on the Sport Trac. We've had one installed on our '02 for going on three years with zero problems. Here's our installation, apologies for the dirty engine: [Broken External Image]: The kit...

    Need Your Old Plug Wires

    Hey peeps... One of the companies I deal with all the time, Performance Distributors, is working on a performance ignition kit for the Explorer Sport Trac, Ranger, and 4.0 Mustang ('05 and up)... They've got the coil pack already done, but they are looking for wire length measurements...

    Headlight Switch Bulb is Still Available (and cruise switch bulb info too)!

    It would seem we've had a rash of dash light failures recently. Dawn's got one dash light out behind the tach, then one behind the HVAC controls, then I noticed when applying the parking brake in my friend's steep driveway the BRAKE warning light on the dash is burnt out. We've also had the...

    Dash warning light bulb size

    I'm going to be tearing into the dash tomorrow to replace a few #194s that have burnt out in the dash and A/C controls and while I'm in there I want to replace the warning light for the brake system (red lamp for low fluid/parking brake) since it too has burned out. I'm not sure if the warning...

    She's all fixed (again!)

    As many long time MYST.com members will know, our Silver Birch '02 is some sort of moron magnet for poor drivers. From a T-bone that took out the whole left side of the cab at five months old to THREE different rear end accidents (none have been our fault!) Dawn's poor ST has really been through...

    WTB: Gauge Cluster PRNDL Indicator

    Hey everyone. Long time no type... :D The Trac has been great, but I've been super busy the last 18 months or so with a new job position and I've been building a Shelby Cobra replica the past year, so that's taken much of my time and money! Anyways, I replaced some dash bulbs in Dawn's...

    P1400- Replaced DPFE and still get the code?

    Hey everyone, had the cracked elbow a few months back and now my wife's ST had the CEL on again with P1400 in memory. I replaced the DPFE right off the bat since that's the general consensus, but three days later the CEL came back on. I checked for codes and got the same P1400. There's no...

    Lean Bank 2- Vacuum Elbow Finally Bit Me!

    With 62K on our '02 the wife came home from work Wed night saying the CEL was on, but the truck seemed to be running fine. I plugged in my scanner and got the typical lean running code, so I cleared the code, fired up the engine and opened the hood. I heard this nice sucking sound...

    Merry Christmas! Now Shoot those Reindeer!

    I have been swamped with work since I took a new position in April of this year and have had little time to swing by for chat room antics or to post, but I did want to stop and wish all of my extended family a Happy Holidays and the best in the New Year! The Trac is doing fine, though I...
