Turning 20 this year, the 2002 Ford Explorer may be ready for a few replacement parts. Luckily, you can find everything you need at the Ford Parts BC online store.
This full-size SUV was produced in four trim levels including the XLS, XLT, Eddie Bauer, and Limited. The most popular version was the XLT, but the Limited was the premium model. Featuring luxury elements such as leather upholstery and heated seats, this vehicle offers comfort and sophisticated style. It even includes automatic climate control which is something that didn’t catch on with other brands until much later in the game.
As for entertainment, the Limited comes with a six-disc CD changer - which is ideal for people who enjoy an old-school way of listening to music. Standard safety enhancements include ABS and the Securilock passive anti-theft system.
With a 4.0-litre V6 rumbling under the hood, the Explorer generates 210 hp. Paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, it can tow up to 3,311 kg (7,300 lbs) with the appropriate equipment. A trailer hitch ball mount (pictured) is recommended to reach this maximum capability.
As the entry-level trim, the 2014 Ford Explorer Base comes with some great features that you might not expect such as a powerful V6 engine and cruise control. The outside is pretty impressive as well, and you can add extra accessories to make it even better.
Rolling on 17-inch steel wheels, it uses a set of all-season tires for enhanced grip throughout the year. These have anti-hydroplaning capabilities, and they last longer than summer, performance, or off-roading sets.
Automatic headlights come on by themselves for your convenience and safety. Meanwhile, integrated blind-spot mirrors allow you to see any sneaky vehicles that come up beside you on the highway. Other outside components you will love include rear privacy glass to prevent passersby from peeking inside and roof rails for extra storage.
If you want to keep your full-size SUV looking young and new, then you might want to consider investing in a hood deflector. Easy to install, this smoked piece serves as a guard against flying debris and rogue rocks. It protects the hood of the vehicle from dents, dings, and scratches.

Aside from lots of seating, most families choose the Ford Explorer due to its large cargo compartment and versatility. Even specific models such as the 2013 Sport trim level are designed to carry all of your things.
Behind the third row is 594 litres (21 cubic feet) of storage room. If you fold that bench down, you will be left with 1,240 litres (43.8 cubic feet) of space. By laying down both back rows, you can gain access to the maximum cargo area measured at 2,285 litres (80.7 cubic feet).
Covered in carpet, the floor can be protected by a liner or tray made from rubber. Water-repellent and heavy-duty, this will prevent dirt, moisture, and stains from ruining the material below. You can also opt for collapsible organizers that can hold various loose items or grocery bags.
Another nifty piece you can add is the envelope-style cargo net. Made from a soft braided cord that won’t scratch the surface of the objects being held, this component stretches from one side of the SUV to the other. It doesn’t require any tools, and it can be installed quickly.
If you are an adventurous person who must have a vehicle that can keep up with your lifestyle, then the 2012 Ford Explorer XLT is a great option. Not only is it fitted with some great basic elements, but it can also be customized with enhancements to make every trip memorable.
Riding on 18-inch cast-aluminum wheels, the XLT is a mid-level trim that comes with automatic headlights and fog lamps. These provided optimized visibility at night and during inclement weather. Projecting beams at a downward angle to illuminate the path beneath the mist, you won’t have to worry about hitting a pothole on a rugged trail.
If your SUV is equipped with any of the Rapid Spec options, it will also come with a review camera. While this feature is standard in new models, it was a luxury in 2012. Other exterior possibilities can include a dual-pane sunroof, a power liftgate, and even a tow package to make hauling easier.
For people who like to explore rivers, a kayak carrier may be just what you need. This folding-style unit fits with factory-installed roof rails or crossbars. The kit is all-inclusive, and the mount itself can be folded away when it’s not in use.
If you own a 2011 Ford Explorer Limited, then you may be ready to add a few exterior accessories into the mix. Available at Ford Parts BC, you can find OEM pieces that are designed to fit this model precisely.
Rolling on larger 20-inch wheels, this top-tier trim level comes with all of the bells and whistles from its day. These include remote engine start technology and keyless ignition/entry. If your SUV happens to have the Rapid Spec 301A package installed, it will also include a power liftgate that grants quick access to the cargo compartment. Also, the Rapid Spec 302A suite adds other outside aspects such as xenon headlights and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
However, something may be missing for families who enjoy heading off on adventures. That could be crossbars for the roof rack. Mounted to the top of the vehicle, this luggage rack kit provides extra points to secure large or oddly shaped items. Easy installation is guaranteed, and it takes under an hour to complete the process. Other compatible models include the Ford Explorer from 2011 to 2015 of all trims.
When it comes to older vehicles - such as the 2000 Ford Explorer XLS - protecting the exterior is key to prolonging the look of the exterior. As one of the few remaining truck-like SUVs still in production today, this model is worth preserving.
Rumbling under the hood is most likely a 4.0-litre V6 that offers responsive acceleration and a comfortable ride experience. Generating 210 hp, it uses RWD to deliver a stellar performance in the city. With seating for five people, it is ideal for small families on a budget.
Originally produced in eight unique paint colours, many of these exterior shades are no longer available on new models. That is one of the reasons why you should get certain add-ons to prevent damage. One of the things you can get is a stone deflector. This guards against rogue rocks and other flying debris that you might encounter at any time on the highway. As a side note, this particular piece is compatible with many different trim levels produced between 1991 and 2001. You can install it yourself, and it comes with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty.

If you own a 2018 Ford Explorer Platinum, then you have the top-tier trim level from that production year. However, you can always add interior enhancements to customize the vehicle further to your liking. Ford Parts BC has OEM components that you can order online today!
As the premium model, the Platinum is designed with luxury in mind. Featuring full leather upholstery throughout the cabin, it is perfect for families with style. The panoramic sunroof can be opened with the simple push of a button to ventilate the interior or to bring the outside in. An upgraded audio system is also provided for a fully immersive experience with your music. As for safety, the automated parking system will make getting into a parallel spot much easier.
With three rows of seating, up to eight passengers can fit inside. In the back, the cargo area is measured at 594 litres (21 cubic feet). However, this space can be expanded. By folding down the third row, you can grow this area to 1,243 litres (43.9 cubic feet). A cargo area protector (pictured) can also be put in to guard against spills and stains. Made in black, it fits perfectly to the contours of the SUV.
If you are lucky enough to own a 2010 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer, then you have a special edition trim level that not many people have the luxury to enjoy. But don’t let its rarity fool you into thinking that you can’t find accessories for it. At Ford Parts BC, you can find OEM components that are made especially for this particular model.
Riding on 17-inch alloy wheels, the Explorer Eddie Bauer can be spotted by its two-tone exterior paint job. On the inside, it offers three rows of seating allowing space for seven people instead of just five. It also includes leather upholstery, heated/power-adjustability for the front chairs, and upgraded technology.
As for infotainment, the coveted Sync interface is provided along with satellite radio and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. It really is well-equipped for a vehicle that is now twelve years old.
Behind the last row is a cargo area that measure 382 litres. By folding that bench down, you can expand this space to 1,277 litres. The maximum cargo capacity is capped at 2,429 litres with both back rows down. You can add a cargo security shade (pictured) to prevent passersby from peeking at your items.
As a full-size SUV with three rows of seating for up to eight riders, the 2016 Ford Explorer Base is a fantastic model for families who enjoy travelling. It can also be customized with many different exterior elements to personalize it exactly to your liking.
Rolling on 18-inch alloy wheels, the Base trim comes with full LED lighting for the head and tail lamps. These provide enhanced visibility at night and during inclement weather. They are also more energy-efficient than conventional halogen bulbs, which means that they don’t need to be replaced too often.
Rear privacy glass prevents passersby from peeking inside the cargo compartment, and roof rails have been added to the top to store extra luggage or large items such as bicycles or kayaks.
This version of the Explorer does not include running boards. However, you can add a set to the outside. These parts help passengers climb into the cabin, and they are ideal for young, elderly, and disabled people. You can find everything you need - including the mount bolts - at Ford Parts BC. Other components you may want to get can be crossbars, side steps, splash guards, and more.
If you own a Ford Mustang that was produced between 2015 and 2020, then you may want to get a new expansion reservoir. Compatible with all trim released during this time, this engine coolant tank serves as an overflow space for the radiator. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
