I am looking at a 1994 explorer as a second vehicle, the one I am looking at has 155,000 miles on it and the body and vehicle look ok. 2 things that stick out as problems are the clucth is very stiff (compared to most cars, I do have a 1989 bronco 2 that is not as stiff) and the front end is loose. the looseness (sp) seems to be wheel bearings not ball joints althought its hard to tell in a driveway. The truck has auto locking hubs so I am not sure if it is a quick fix. The clutch just seems very hard. Any input would be great. also how well do these hold up in the higher miles? I will pull a 2000 pound boat from time to time but not much. I have pulled the same boat with my bronco 2. Any help would be great.
