My wife has a 2001 Explorer.I pulled a front wheel off and rotated the hub and the front drive shaft spins even though its in 2 wheel drive. Is it supposed to rotate in 2 wheel??

Replying to: astanton (Sep 01, 2008 1:19 pm) the brown wire mod.. will bypass the auto function ..which is better for most people..your 4 wheel drive will still work only when you select high or low..the auto funtion will no longer work................I think is safer ...........
#61 of 88 4WD problems??? by jcar8 Sep 19, 2008 (12:21 pm)
Hi All, I have a 2003 Explorer and it has been doing strange sounds when driving at more than 30mph, sounds like the 4WD may be partially engaged, specially when turning to the left. Any advice??? Replies to this message: fillr68 (Sep 20, 2008 12:39 pm) jcar8 (Sep 22, 2008 4:54 am)

Replying to: jcar8 (Sep 19, 2008 12:21 pm) you did not mention how many miles you have on your Explorer...there could also be a bearing hub that maybe going bad...on the left side.... Replies to this message: jcar8 (Sep 22, 2008 4:54 am)

Replying to: fillr68 (Sep 20, 2008 12:39 pm) It has almost 58,000 miles on it, the sound is persistant while driving, but more intense when turning to the left, and less intense when turning to the right, it also feels like something is preventing the wheels from moving smoothly. Thanks

did you check you bearing hub...you would need to raise the explorer...turning the left wheel by hand may give you a rubbing noise..a rough sounding noise...check that first...... also check you tire ,,,air pressure ...wear pattern..if all of that is okay...you could remove the front drive shaft ...to see if the problem goes away...if it does it could be a shift motor located on the the transfer case...let me know what you come up with............Phil
