All About 1992 Ford Explorer Drivetrain Service

Your Explorer drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Ford, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Explorer’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 1992 Ford Explorer to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Ford's recommendations.

Ford Explorer Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 1992 Ford Explorer drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Ford could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Ford Explorer doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 1992 Ford Explorer drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

Ford Explorer Drivetrain Q&A

Got drivetrain problems? Then you’ve got driving problems. Get answers to everyday 1992 Ford Explorer drivetrain questions, and stop by your neighborhood Firestone Complete Auto Care today.

  •  Can Ford drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are signs my Ford drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Ford Explorer, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Ford Explorer differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Explorer? A multitude of problems can activate your Explorer’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.
  • Can my Explorer malfunction warning light be reset at home? It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Explorer, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your Explorer to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Explorer? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Explorer. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Explorer.
  • Is my Explorer’s transmission part of the drivetrain? Yes, the drivetrain system in your Explorer includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your Explorer forward.
