Yesterday my transmission on my 1992 2WD Ford Explorer XLT laid a stripe of transmission fluid out my drive way (200 feet) and the car kept slipping out of gears. I took it into the Firestone and they said it was 5 quarts low on tranny fluid (dah!). They said they couldn't find evidence of an exterior leak. I convinced then to keep the car another day and test drive it again.
My questions are: (1) anyone know how much a rebuilt/new transmission for a 1992 2WD For Explorer XLT cost installed; and (2) and I guess I really don't have a second question; unless you know an awesome garage that is fair priced.
Don't know about the auto tranny's (no pun intended) in the Explorers as I have the 5sp version of the same thing, but in truck from (the Ranger, same year too) so can't help you directly, but if you are laying a stipe of tranny fluid, you DO have an external leak somewhere, possibly a line is broken for how can you NOT have a leak and yet leave a streak of fluid?
Hilltop Service Station is an awesome garage that is fair priced. They were highly rated on Car Talk's site (cars.com) and I personally have used them.
