#1 of 5 2002 explorer rear coil springs by lieut Jul 08, 2009 (4:20 pm)
I have an 02 exp with 42000 miles. I have never towed or hauled anything heavy. i got the oil changed a few weeks ago and they told me both rear coils springs were broke. Has anybody else seen this?

Replying to: lieut (Jul 08, 2009 4:20 pm) i have an '02 also,and just had the rear springs replaced at 88k because they were broken. there were several opportunities for that. the back end had a sag before i got them and the shocks replaced. not a cheap repair.

Replying to: lieut (Jul 08, 2009 4:20 pm) hi, yes, i had the same thing. apparently its a common thing in 02s. had the trans rebuilt, and the springs replaced this last summer. both sides had cracks in them. i have never taken the thing off road or done anything to make that happen. when i found out about it, the guy at the shop said it was common in 02s.
