Elite Explorer Registry

Well at last, I'm working on my X again. My aunt gave it to me for my 17th b-day in '99 with only 45k miles on it. I remember when I first got into it and felt like I was in a damn 18wheeler-I'd never driven anything besides a car or my dad's little toyota pickup which was like 4 inches off the ground. I found this site and not too long after that, I bought a Flowmaster 50series with fabbed 2.5 pipes from the cat and a chrome tip on the end. Couldn't believe how badass it sounded, I still have people ask me if I swapped in a V8. For graduation I bought the 1.5" rough country coils, 2" warrior shackles, and rancho 5000's. My parents bought me all new tires, 31x10.5's and that was the end of my mods until now. After wasting time...

I recently picked up a 1996 XLT to use as a DD. And like always Bandit Customs came thru!! NICE59FORDF100 had already named the vehicle "Layla Bandit", the name will remain Layla Bandit. It started when Russel was here in Hamilton working on The Green Buffalo with easymc and myself. He mentioned that he and Kris Guilbeaux were having a 96X coming to Bandit Customs that was going to be used as a resale. We spoke on this subject for a bit and the asking price with coming from Bandit Customs were too good to pass. I had a 99 Tahoe as a dd that was nothing more than a money pit and I was not even driving it since it seemed I was lucky just to make it to town and back without a malfunction occurring. Kris notified me when the...

For sale!!! PM me for dtails!!! I finally signed up for my Elite membership a while ago. Now I have a little time to type a little about myself and my truck. Me: My name is Billy. I'm 22 years old and I'm attending NC State University majoring in Business Management concentrating in Human Resources. I will graduate from there in December of 2004.

I have a girlfriend of 2 1/2 years and I love her very very...

Here is my 1997 Mercury Mountaineer AWD 5.0. Picked her up on 5/12/10 for $1000 with 179,710 on the clock. She is fully loaded, but does need some work. I'm gonna use this page as a diary/build page. What needs to be fixed: New Blower Motor Resistor New Blend Door Actuator New Multifunction Switch New Front Rotors & Pads What I want to do to it: MAC Intake Remove rear cats Flowmaster 40 Series Headers (When the stock manifolds crack) Tune (After headers) New Head unit New rims Here she is sitting in the guys backyard, with a year worth of dirt, pollen, sap, and grime. Here she is after a wash and wax. Here's what I left after doing a front driveshaft-less little burnout

Thank You! :D

This is the Registry for my 2000 Mountaineer 5.0 AWD There are so many plans for this rig and being a newbie to automotive I'm hoping to learn alot, build alot and play alot. Welcome To The Lab 12/22/09 This was the rig the day I got it: 01/27/10 Tint, Removed Running Boards, Painted OEM plastics/Bumpers Big Wheel Dreamin

I finally splurged and signed up. After being lazy, procrastinating, and being lazy some more I paid a measly 30 dollars and became an Elite Explorer. I highly encourage everyone to sign up. My Explorer is pretty much stock. No lift, ...yet. I've just bought some Superlift parts for the front and will get the rest soon. It sits on 31x10.5 Bridgestone Dueler Mud Terrain Tires. The first mod I did was to replace the auto hubs with Warn manual ones. It will always be in a stage of being upgraded. But here it is now. Hope you like it. Because that's the only reason I'm spending all this money on it in the first place. :D (This is with the sway bars still connected) Dead Link Removed Dead Link Removed Happy...
