I have a 02 Explorer engine that I bought a flywheel for from EBAY.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FORD...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

After talking to the manufacturer it sounds like it may not work. They gave me some engineer jargin that I can't get. This was there response to me.

"If the rotate element was balanced with neutral balanced flywheel before, you can just put on the 0 balanced flywheel. If the rotate element was balanced with OEM flywheel for external balanced, you must make dynamic balance again with 0 weight flywheel."

It was my understanding that all 4.6 were internally balanced and therefore this 0 balance flywheel would work.

Can someone tell me for sure?

I think it will work but im not sure. Wait for someone else to chime in. Also make sure it is the same amount of bolts, either six or eight, cause the crank is different on some 4.6's.
