So after losing 2 cars within a week and a half back in October , we are finally a two vehicle household again! Sent the Explorer to a trans shop last Monday and got it back today! Only 650 miles away from 200k

Is your rear plastic trim piece cracked in the usual spot? I feel like almost all of that generation of Exploder have bit the dust.

Hahaha yes it is! Need to comb a junkyard for an intact piece. I also need new front control arms and new tires but at least she runs and drives again

I saw someone made one out of aluminum once, I wonder if you can buy them online to replace it *permanently*

Thatd be pretty sweet. I know you can buy new panels but they're over 100 bucks on Rock Auto and I'm not about to pay that kind of money
