Maintenance intervals, '04 Explorer

Greetings, all...

Long time, no talk. I have a question about what service(s) are required at what intervals for my wife's 2004 Explorer (XLT, 2WD, 4.0L). She's at 43,700 miles now and I've been doing the "shade tree mechanic" maintenance (oil and filter every 3K, air filter, rotate tires every 10K). She has misplaced her Owner's Manual, so I thought I'd ask here if anyone could tell me what services are recommended and which are "mandatory" at the 40K interval (or thereabouts).

Thanks much!
Daryl

check the Ford download site, you can download the owner's manual and scheduled maintance guide from there.

Because it is an https:// site the link does not work from here... so you can cut and paste this into your browser

try the cut and paste... after the edit I did... the link that was active does not work because of the way the redirector from this site works.

Worked for me. I copied and pasted it into my browser's address bar. If you tried clicking on it, I don't see how you got anything.

I edited it after I found that it did not work right... the cut and paste method should work (as you found).
