other car forums

just picked up an explorer while the e30 sits for the winter, thing needs a little work but I got it for a steal.

anyways, does anyone know any explorer forums? I found explorerforum.com but was wondering if there are any others worth checking out. e30's have at least 3 dedicated widely known forums, so a ford explorer has to right?

also does anyone know any parts lookup sites similar to realoem and bmwfans? I need a couple little bushings for my door latch but cant seem to find any sites like pelicanparts, bma, or realoem where I can look up parts and then check prices.

I checked out google, but I found two shitty forums and the part lookup sites I did find were garbage as well and had no exploded diagrams.

thanks!

I've found that most forums dealing with American cars, other than off roading/lifted trucks, have some pretty lame forums. I was a member of some Ford forums that covered every Ford model, a couple Jeep forums, and a Dodge forum. I don't think I got more than 10 posts on any of them..

figures... and the only one worth going to is down right now.....damn anything thats not an e30, cant wait till the weather warms up

Just looked at that explorerforum.com, it looks to be a well put together site. I've been on many other Amrican car forums as well. They all seemed to keep on topic and didnt have that much chit chat in the threads.

explorerforum.com has already saved me hundreds of dollars with my explorer. Tons and tons of info on that site..

What explorer did ya pick up?

not sure what world you live in... fuelslut.net, ls1tech, corral.net, yellowbullet, ls1gto.com, dodgetruckworld.com, dakotausa.com, svtperformance.com and many more are all very good/large websites...

not sure of any explorer specific forum, but try corral.net, alot of ford knowledge on there.


also, i googled my username the other day, i am registered and have posted on wayyyy to many sites lol.

Decent site, had a lot of good info with knowledgable guys when I first went there when I got my '04 F150.

i got a 99 XLT for 600 bux, need some new mirrors and explorerforum is great, was just hoping for something along the lines of realoem and/or pelicanparts for parts based on number, I cant find p/n for anything for these things

I remember when I was driving an MR2 around last year and decided to become a member on an mr2 forum. What an utter snoozefest that was.

I can't find any decent late 80's to early 90's Dodge Dakota forums. Really trying to find out how much, how hard and what all is needed for a newer engine in it would take.

I have a few friends on Ranger-forums and they really like it, knowledgeable people there.

The V6 mounts in your truck will bolt rite up to a 318 or 360 Magnum. It will drop straight in. You just have to cut the core support some to move the rad forward. As for keeping it fuel injected. I have no idea, i tossed that stuff in the trash and used a carb.
