    I have the 2.75” spacers you front and 2.25” in the rear, And 33” 265/70/17 tires. My front sway bars are completely toast and they’re only about 40k miles old.

    Rear axle leaking....again.

    How bad is the leak? My front axle shaft and diff have been sealed back up twice since I’ve owned and they keep coming back to leaking but I honestly love and rely on the vehicle and the drip is so slow it can’t keep up with the amount of maintenance I do. I also beat the crap out of it at times...

    A/C vent or vents feel clogged.

    Much appreciated! Mushrooms thing is crazy I sure hope not for mine. After this hurricane I’ll take out the glovebox and inspect that flap and possibly install a cover as you did, because when I want outdoor air I just roll the windows and sunroof down. My grandpa has an 02 and he said after...

    A/C vent or vents feel clogged.

    I was just wondering anyone could put their two cents in I do not have an air filter or anything like that that is able to get clogged so it makes me believe something is clogged along the air duct system because I have a new blower motor my A/C system runs great it does blow cold air and on 4...

    Misfire

    Was it by chance a Cheap after market coil pack? I’ve seen those become a nightmare. Also motorcraft plugs are the best.

    Front quick strut

    A piece of wood on top of the jack underneath the bottom of the strut may help compress it alittle easier, if the shock absolutely will not compress for you it’s best not to try anything dangerous it could be an old defective strut or something else. Worst case scenario put the old one back on...

    Update on my build (who cares right)?

    New black Headlight housings accompanied with some LED bulbs really made her front end look the best it has in years. Ripped off my step bars for more clearance even with weathertech the inside gets pretty dirty now due to that. Oh yeah, and probably one of the few 3rd gens in my area with a...

    Sunroof deflector for 02-05 3rd gen Explorer ??

AVS is around 20-30 weathertech will be 100$+ but will come with the...

    So you have no idea the vehicle your grill was originally made for? Was it a custom fit only for our explorers. I’m comfortable trimming sanding and making it work but I’d find comfort in having an idea. The 04-08 F-150 grill is close as my buddy has one though yes they are larger. No offense...
