Driving on highway and heard banging/bumping noise coming from rear of vehicle. Initially thought that jack had came loose from holder located in fender well compartment. Upon inspection jack was found to be tight in holder. Noticed that you could hear the banging noise when rocking the vehicle up and down. Carried vehicle to a local mechanic who inspected it and found that the right rear body insulator had deteriorated and fell out allowing the explorer's body to ride directly on the frame. Mechanic stated that he felt it would be safe to drive vehicle but advised too, that it could damage the body because it was riding directly on frame. Cost to repair = $325 ($110 labor + $167 for new chassis body insulator purchased from a local Ford dealer + 40 for used body mount supports purchased at a local salvage yard + 8 in taxes). Mechanic had to also tighten bolts on hinges holding rear lift gate on. Mileage on vehicle was 108,000.
