    Black Astro Cap for 2001-2005 ST

    I am selling a black Astro CR1800 cap for a 2001-2005 sport trac. It has the third brake light and deep tinted black sliding side windows. Double t-handle locks on the rear door. It also has the sliding front window so you can pass items from inside the cab, into the pickup bed. Cap has...

    Slow transmission engagement

    Help! I've had a Ranger (2001) with the same ( I think) 5R55E in the 2002 Sport Trac. When I test drove the truck last winter it shifted immediatly when taken out of park and in between Rev and Drive. My Ranger always had a delay and would not manually downshift to first. So I was...

    Rear window sticking

    Has anyone had their rear window stick and keep rolling back down. It used to be I could hold the knob and it would force itself up, but last time I had to do it about 5 times before it went. What should I be looking for when I tear into it?

    6CD in place of Single

    Is it possible to purchase a 6 disc CD changer out of an explorer or sport trac and have it plug into the wiring for a factory single disk player? If so, will it retain the rear audio controls?

    Still not wanting to start

    Hey all... I bit the bullet and replaced the IAC ($50) because the truck would randomly not start until a few cranks. All was well for about 2 weeks, and the wife told me the other day it took two tries to start? I want to think it's her not holding the key long enough, but the Ford...

    Rumbling in 4WD

    As most of you know I just bought the trac in December. In 2WD there is no noise. In 4WD it sounds like a bad bearing? I know in 2WD the front drivetrain always spins. So therefore wouldn't the guts of the Transfercase also be spinning? What locks in and turns in 4WD that is not...

    Removed Baffle

    I did as mentioned in the projects section and removed the air baffle in the airbox. No biggie. I've never noticed this before but do now. When I shut the truck off, right as the engine stops it sounds like someone hitting a drum once, not a bang, a thud. Then when I turn the key...

    Fuel Mileage!!!!

    This truck is horrible! I just filled up from 1/4 a tank and only went 120 miles. Seriously 3/4 of a tank used for a lowsy 120 miles! I did the math, I got 10.1 mpg!! What the hell is wrong with this thing? I got 20mpg once on a all highway trip. Then the next tank (city) it went...

    Engine will not start, then runs rough

    I posted about this a while back. I just bought the ST last month. Within a week of owning it, it refused to start until the third try, and then ran VERY rough until I gave it gas. It only did it once. Fast forward 3 weeks, wife calls me today. She is at work, tried starting the truck...

    Aftermarket Radio with Rear Audio

    I have a MP3/HD Radio/CD player I had installed in the 1999 Ranger. I would like to put it in the new ST, but am afraid of losing my rear seat audio. I read in the projects section it's possible, but there was WAY too much going on in the writeup for me to comprehend. Is there a special...

    Did not want to start

    I had an issue... It's only happened once, but I've not forgotten about it. A few days after I picked up the ST, I had to back it out of the driveway so I could get the other truck out of the garage. Temperature is around 20 degrees. Started it, immediatly shifted to reverse, backed up...

    How to remove door panel

    I found out the reason the driversdoor will not lock is because the rivor/nut came loose on the actuator so it is not hanging in the door. I need to get the door panel off to reattach it. I took out the two screws on the very bottom and the two under the armrest. I took loose the window...

    Power lock issue

    I noticed the power lock on the driverside door does not lock. If I manually push the lock button down, it will pop back up when unlocking, but neither the keyfob, or the interior lock buttons will pull the lock down to lock. Any ideas?

    New Sport Trac Questions

    I just purchased a 2002 Sport Trac. It has 65K on it with the 4.0L and and Automatic 4wd. The first half tank of gas I got 14.3mpg. Is this normal? It has 4.10 gears. I was hoping for a little closer to 16-18ish. Most of the tank was highway. What should I look for or is this normal?
