To change the Transmission Fluid in a 1998 Ford Explorer, start by warming up the vehicle, then lift it and secure it on jack stands. Remove the transmission pan bolts and gently lower the pan to drain the old fluid. Replace the filter, clean the pan, and reinstall it with a new gasket. Finally, refill the transmission with the appropriate type and amount of new fluid, checking the level with the dipstick as you go.
