Not today, but in the past 2 weeks, I've - replaced the starter on my '04 Sport Trac (so much fun - NOT!) - replaced the upper control arm and ball joint on the passenger side of my '02 ST, and installed camber bolts in preparation for new front tires and alignment Thursday. The current tires...

That looks the same as what I got, but mine included the lower hose, 2 clamps, and new bolts for the same price.

Two weeks ago, I replaced the passenger side valve cover gasket on my 2002 ST. Wasn't as bad as I expected. I had done the driver's side in the fall, and the passenger side was just beginning to noticeably leak. It went to smoking a lot in a short time. Last week, I replaced the thermostat...

2nd Gen Explorer ('95-'01 and '01-02 2 dr Sports) seats bolt right in, but the fabric is different. The seats with adjustable headrests are specific to the Sport Tracs and '01 to '03 Sports, I think. I think Explorer seats all the way back to the '89 Bronco II will bolt in. Most all Ford seats...

I'm about to replace the housing on my '04, so I'm glad to run across this! I replaced the one on my '02 ST over a year ago with an aluminum one from Parts Geek. I had read the link above at that time, but forgot about it. As I recall, you can push the clips for the sensors in instead of pulling...

2nd Gen Explorers use a nearly identical jack. The difference is they lack the holes in the base that the hooks in the ST go into to keep it from moving around.

To follow up on my post of Oct, 26, we took our 1357 mile round trip to Worthington (Columbus), Ohio via I-80, I-74, and I-70 2 weeks ago in my '02 ST. The truck did great, but didn't get the mpg I'd hoped. Wind was a factor. There was a 25-30 mph NNW wind hitting the left rear quarter for the...

Motivated by a 1300 mile round trip coming next week, I finally replaced the original spark plugs and wires in my 2002 ST at 127,555 miles a few weeks ago. I've had the plugs for several years knowing it needed to be done. The gaps on plugs 1-3 were around .072, while 5 & 6 were .092 and .096...

The leather on the steering wheel in my '01 would twist, but the glue never leaked out or caused a mess. I swapped it 6 years ago with one from an '02 that has held up well. The '01 died last fall, and I recently put the original wheel back in it. After 6 years in the basement, the glue set...

You'll need a steering wheel from a 2001-2005 Sport Trac or '01-03 2dr Explorer Sport. Explorer steering wheels probably physically fit, but the air bags and electrical connectors to the air bag are different.

I don't know much about '03s, but my '01 has a sunroof and cloth seats. That was before the XLT was a designated package, though.

I think I was referring to the clips in the bed extender. The bed I took off my '01 still has the striker bolts in it, but they aren't coming out. Assuming the striker bolts are the same for both generations of Sport Tracs, you can use door striker bolts, but I don't know the #. For my '02, I...

I'll have to look. I'm not sure if I was referring to bolts or the clips above.

A little late, but my '02 has gold coolant. I think the '02s can use either green or gold.

My '02 Sport Trac developed a coolant leak over the summer, and I had trouble determining where the leak was. It finally became evident the back side of the thermostat housing was leaking and the coolant was going under the intake. Never could see the leak from the front. By this time, it was...

I started to post this on my phone last week, but didn't have my log in info available, and forgot to post from the computer later. I have the 3 piece Curt hitch on both of my Sport Tracs. I installed the first one on my '02 by myself in the warehouse at work on a slow day. Installation went...

I have an '01 and an '02. The '01 has fog lights, and the switch is in the lower right corner of the radio bezel. Neither have auto headlights.

I can relate to the smoke problem! The valve cover gaskets on my '01 are practically non-existent, especially the driver's side. I stopped driving it to work - where I parked in a parking ramp - last year out of concern somebody would freak out. I retired in Nov, so that's not a problem now. I...

I got it off and got the brackets I wanted. They wanted too much for the cover, especially since it was only good for parts after I previously got the front lock covers. To pull the cables, you have to reach in through the side of the latch and grab the bare cable with needle nose pliers, or...

I have a pair I can sell.
