But seriously, your rig looks really nice....maybe your next mod should be a taller garage so you can go even BIGGER! Those tires look like they could really tear up some dirt... olivesman 01-19-2001, 11:12 AM your truck looks pretty stout for 31's. do you have any kind of lift? i really like the set up. jcarter 01-19-2001, 11:55 AM HEY thanks guys, there is currently no lift, I was able to squeeze those tires under the truck without rub. Next Mod I do will likely be a KKM and I desperately need to install 4 new shocks. Oh ya,,,,I love big wheels too. yob_yeknom 01-19-2001, 01:16 PM Are you planning on doing a suspension lift any time in the future where you'd need longer shocks? If not, let me make a suggestion. Go with Monroe Reflex shocks. I'm not trying to advertise or anything, just relaying my experience with them. I put some on mine and the ride and handling improvement is great. In turns that I used to slow down to about 45-50mph I can now stay at speed and go 60-65mph no problem. The ride is also firmer (not harsher) and just feels more under control. They also didn't cost a lot. olivesman 01-19-2001, 02:08 PM where did you get them? how cheap is cheap? can you get them in longer lengths? jcarter 01-22-2001, 11:29 AM I'm not planning on lifting right away. Perhaps the monroe reflex would be a good option. I'll have to do some research...thanks guys yob_yeknom 01-22-2001, 11:51 AM I got them from NAPA. The prices for my '95 were: front $44.99, rear $45.49. Well worth the price. I don't know about being able to get them in longer lengths. Maybe you could e-mail Monroe and ask them. ilikedellcomputers 01-22-2001, 12:49 PM That's one good looking Explorer, and yes, those are some big damn tires!
