Re: 97 Ford Explorer Control Trak

Nope, No tidbits left out...I wish you were right, trust me...
We called them during the repair and they told us they had to "Re-wire the
transfer case to the engine because they could not get the 4wd lights to
stop flashing".
Suspecting they might have made an error, I called them back to see if they
would look at their wiring and the Technician claimed rudly they did not
re-wire anything on it and the transfer case was the problem.

So in summary, they just wanted to rape my wallet and send me on my way.

About the hubs, I can't find any for my year of EXPLODER, the only go up to
94.
