Many posts on this '92 4X EB and '91 4X XLT site have been great sources of information, but pictures are worth thousands of words. I wanted to put something up for people to point others to when they have 4X4 problems. So here am going to list some key 2 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 Join Date: Jun 2004 words to help the searchers: Posts: 915 Transfer Case Electric Shift Motor 4X4 4x4 4WD 4wd 4X Borg Warner 13-54 BW1354 BW13-54 First thing is where is that 4X4 shift motor ? You have to crawl underneath and look at the back of the transfer case (which is behind the transmission). Looking at it from behind it will look something like this: It has been said that tapping or hitting the shift motor will sometimes get it to engage if it is stuck in a position. This may work (it's probably worth a try), but don'tt hit it too hard or you might be looking at $300 to get a replacement. To straight out replace the motor with an OEM or aftermarket one, eight bolts are all that is needed to remove 3 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 the motor. Four bolts hold on the weight that is used as a vibration dampener (not shown, but locations are marked in blue), and four bolts hold on the shift motor (locations marked in red are 10mm). Two of these bolts attach a bracket that secures the electrical connector as well as holding a sensor in place (it has an o-ring and just needs to be kept from popping out of the case). There is silicone sealant used between the shift motor and the t-case body, so a little gentle prying might be in order (and don'tt forget to seal it back up and make it weatherproof when you are replacing it). For those of us who don't have $300 just sitting around doing nothing, you might be tempted to fix the motor yourself. Well good for you! I hate seeing good parts end up in the trash because of a stupid little plastic piece (which is one of the main culprits of these failures as will be shown in a bit). To see how these things work I'm going to start at the end and work towards the beginning, which might sound counter-intuitive, but explaining 4 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 the "how" requires the understanding of the "why" Showing the build-up seems to show why better than a tear-down. If you want to see a tear-down just read from bottom to top ; ) That being said, let me say up front MAKE A MATCHMARK BETWEEN THE GEAR HOUSING AND THE HOUSING COVER SO YOU CAN GET IT REALIGNED PROPERLY!! I'll say this again later in the post, but some people like to dive into something without reading the entire post, and it will keep you from spending hours of frustrating button pushing trying to get all the positions to work again. A sharpie works well if you rub a small area clean. Here is a picture of the transfer case without the shift motor in place and a close-up shot. Notice the marked positions on the transfer case (2H, 4H, 4L) that the selector shaft points towards with the tip. That order is the order of selection as well. In these shots it is pointing towards 2H (2 wheel drive high gear). If worse comes to worse and you are in a tight spot, you can turn this selector with pliers as you can feel the stops (it sets into place with a springy clunk). 5 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 6 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 It takes a bit of torque to move this selector from one position to the next so Ford had two options: put a huge honking high-torque motor on it or put a smaller low-torque motor on it with geared reduction to get the torque necessary. The second option is best because it weighs less, requires less power to run it, and costs less. This particular geared combination is called a worm-gear drive. There is a large gear that goes on the end of the selector shaft (shown here on the shaft without the gear housing). The teeth are on the edges of the gear and are angled. Notice on the end of the gear there is a pattern. This serves to allow the computer to sense the position of the gear and therefore the selector shaft. 7 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 There are six finger-like contacts on the cover that are stationary, and by a series of open/closed circuits, the computer can tell where the selector shaft is pointing. This is pretty important because of the computer has to tell the motor when to start and stop. If the computer doesn‘t know what position it is in, it will default to a fail-safe mode of doing nothing except blinking the lights to let you know it is confused and lost. The six contacts might be a little corroded (mine were), so I took a piece of super-fine sandpaper (600 grit) and cleaned off the corrosion on the ends where they ride against the large gear. I also gave them a slight bend up so that they would have even more spring force pushing them against the gear. 8 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 The gear housing serves in a couple of different functions. It is part of the electric motor (contains the brushes and sleeve bearings), it holds the two meshed gears together, and it has a reœstopto keep the large gear from rotating too far in either direction. The next picture shows this housing and the beginning/end stop wedge. 9 de 31 3/11/2008 16:47 4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts Serious Explorations http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123542 The back of the large gear has a stud with a plastic bushing (cushion) over it that hits the stop.

    Volume 19 Issue 6 June 1, 2019 The 1958 - 1960 Lincolns, Interesting Automobiles A totally different Lincoln from the ones who came before it. Experiencing a shortage of articles from our members, we went back into the archives of Continental Comments for an interesting article; which you might enjoy. Lincoln models 1958 through 1960 were both interesting from a mechanical and stylistic standpoint. A lot of folks were not quite sure if the new look of these models was something that they would really like over a period of time. Compared to the 1956 and 1957 models, they really were quite different. Boxier and somewhat larger by most measurements. Now some 60 years later, they are sort of coming into their own. Nice examples will bring a lot of money today, especially if they are convertibles. We have several of these models owned by North Star club members, and they do speak quite highly of them. This article was written by Tim Howley and appeared in the July August 2002 issue of Conti- nental Comments. It is an interesting story, and it looks at these models in a fairly object fashion. Welcome to the We hope you enjoy reading it. Northstar News, the The late Fifties is a fascinating era in automobile styling. It produced the ultimate in ba- roque automobile architecture, especially in the biggest American cars. We think of the 1959 monthly publication of Cadillac and 1957-59 Imperial as being the most interesting examples. But when you set the Northstar Region them alongside the 1958 Lincoln, and to a degree the 1959 and 1960 versions, they don't even of the Lincoln and begin to compare in terms of uniqueness of design.

As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

  • Cars and Trucks 13-Apr-12
    Year/Model Interchange List -- All Makes -- Cars and Trucks 13-Apr-12 PLEASE OTE: This will be the last year for free distribution of the list in this form. Starting late spring 2012, the database will be searchable on the Scalia Safety Engineering website at http://www.scaliaanderson.com/clones with a subscription fee of $50/year. Suggestions for using the YEAR/MODEL ITERCHAGE LIST (Clones/Sisters List): This list is created for researching primarily frontal impact tests. The first year produced may contain a reference to which vehicle the subject vehicle was based on, if applicable, or Whether the subject vehicle was a restyle of an existing vehicle. This may be of assistance in trying to find a greater sample of similar vehicles. This information will generally be listed OLY in the first year of production. Remember that if you are concerned with yaw inertia or side impact, watch out for different wheelbases on the same model. These lists were produced with frontal crush data in mind. Body=Type of construction. f=frame/body, u=unitized Drive=Drive wheels. f=front, r=rear, 4 or a=all Body Styles: 2d=2door,3d=2door Hatchback,4d=4door,5d=4door Hatchback,SW=Station Wagon WB=Wheelbase. When more than one is listed, they correspond to the order of body style listing. Please also allow me the standard disclaimer that I do not in any way guarantee the accuracy of these lists. Some similarities represent my own estimates, and some of the older years are by memory. Most are pulled from specifications tables which may contain inaccuracies all their own.

The Ford Ford Explorer Explorer went on to become one of the most popular sport utility vehicles on the road. The model years through 2010 were traditional body-on-frame, mid-size SUVs.
