Egan,
your truck looks fantastic, amazing what a slight lift and new set of tires can do, huh. did u have any probs fitting the tires/any trimming?

Final lift was almost 2" in the rear with the WP153 Shackles and about 1.5-1.75" up front via the torsion lift.

No problems with the tires fitting, but they are VERY close up front at full turn. I may trim that plastic piece inside the bumper and fender. I don't want it hitting during 4 wheeling!

Any more plans? Let's see... Manik Grill Guard, Hella Black Magics, Serious stereo upgrade, ... I'm sure I'm forgetting some. I don't really acre for body lifts, so I'll have to wait for the 4" Superlift kit for the Sport Trac due out in March.

Look foward to seeing it after you do the mods you listed! It looks awesome and it will just get better.

Best looking Sport Trac I have seen so far. Ford should offer a version just like this . Maybe a hardtop/campershell for the back, and then forget about the 2002 Explorer.

Egan, could you give us some general information regarding the 4-wheeldrive system of the Sport Trac? It seams Ford sales reps have no clue!

Same as the Explorer and earlier model explorers. Electricly engaged with 2wd, 4wd and 4wd low modes.

Damn, it looks like everyone is getting the same rims as me. Oh well I still think they look great, plus mine are different because they're 17x8 silver pythons not the chrome pythons.

I like the stock rims on the sport track. Are you selling those? Do they fit on 1997 explorer sports?

You know what? When the Sport Trac first came out, I was undecided whether or not I liked it. But after seeing yours, I love it. Of course, I like it with the modifications that you have done. Great job and keep up the good work.
