Denver UPAP
I was up at the Denver UPAP on Saturday and saw 3-4 really complete Explorer 5.0's in case anyone is in the market. Two of which were '96/early '97 with the non-P heads. One motor I noticed was super clean (can't remember if it was a '96 or not).
Wilma - 71 1/2 Wagon; 3 1/2" WH lift, 1" BL, NP435, Chebby disc front, WH twin stick D20, EFI 302, Cool hood scoop, mucho cancer; purchased in 1990.

I would have bought a new one if I were you. They're ~$20 at the parts stores with Timken bearings....
There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"

I needed the bolt. The one I had on there was missing the washer that helped center the pulley. If I need to change it - I can easily swap on a new one.

Hey Eck,
I assume the Explorer was a V-8? and if so did you notice if the computer was still there??

It was the V8 and computer was there with all wiring. Whole engine was untouched.

Thanks Eck,
I'll try and hit up the yard after work, I seem to always forget to look for a extra computer when down there. Is it just me or is going to the junk yard like going to the record store (yea I'm that old) too many choices.
Thanks for the lead, that 96 engine is complete minus the computer now
