My driveway is pretty steep. Noticed that when I pull up into my driveway, it almost feels like the brakes are on. I have to really rev it to get it to climb up, but when I let off the gas, it doesnt roll back at all, and feels like the brakes are still on. When I get back on the gas, I can...

on my 2002 4.0L 4x4 supercab, I have been having front end noise for a while, but havent been able to figure it out. Changed fluid, checked wheel bearings, and it still does it. Noticed this morning though that there was a puddle underneath my front diff in the driveway. Looks like it is coming...

Guys, I have a 2002 XLT 4x4 with 4.0L auto extended cab. When in 2wd, there is a loud hum, that almost sounds like tire noise, that increases in frequency as i accellerate. At about 40mph, it seems to disapear but that might just be because i cant hear it at that frequency anymore. Ive...

Does anyone have a vaccum diagram for a 2002 4.0L 4x4 auto? The Haynes manual isnt very complete, and doesnt include one. The vaccum system on this thing is like a maze! Having trouble identifying components and what they actually do. 2 related questions: There is a little valve type thing...

4.0L auto 4x4 supercab 2002. Had a noise that sounded kind of like tire noise from the front end that increased in frequency with speed up to about 40 miles per hour, where it somewhat disapeared. Noticed yesterday though that if I throw it into 4 wheel hi, that the noise goes away on...

Noticed a hissing noise, that is coming from the engine compartment right behind where the passenger airbag is. When I first start up and run the truck in park, the noise is almost unheard. When I put the engine into any gear from Nuetral or park, I can hear like a pop, then the idle drops...

I have a 2002 4x4 with 4.0L and automatic. Just had the fluid changed. For the most part it runs fine and shifts smooth, but Ive noticed 2 times in the past week after driving on the highway for a while and then stop, when I go again it doesnt grab and then bangs into gear. After that, no...

I had a clunk during accel and decel on my 2002 Supercab 4x4 4.0l auto. Removed the driveshaft to lube up the joint, and now the clunk is gone! However, when I had the driveshaft out, I noticed that there was quite a bit of play in the pinion (alot more than the GM 10bolt that I have sitting...

Guys, noticed some wheel noise on the front of the 2002 extended cab 4x4 I just bought. Just put on new 265/75/16 AT's, and had a full alignment. Not sure if it is just tire noise or something worse. Chiltons says the bearings on this are sealed and shouldnt need servicing. Did notice that...

Replaced the rack on my '02 supercab 4x4, and put fluid in. Cycled back and forth about 100 times to get the air out, but it still shakes when i come back left with the wheel. I assume that I need to bleed the system? Does this sound right? What is the best way to do this? Do I remove the...

My steering wheel is all messed up. Wondering what other wheels will fit. Found a few explorer wheels and mustang wheels. Are they the same as the ranger wheel? They look the same, but want to make sure they fit before I buy. Thanks!

Guys, I was installing a reman steering rack from advance auto in my 2002 4x4 supercab (4.0L auto). Managed to get it all in, but it seems that one of the quick connect fittings is loose. It is the lower one, which I believe is the pressured side coming from the cooler. The top one seems tight...

Just bought my 2002 4x4 supercab with 4.0L and automatic. Knew it had been in an accident, but took my chances and got a good deal. Regarldess, found out that right where the forward lower a-arm bolt goes through the crossmember, there is a crack in the crossmember. I am going to pull the...
