    it has fender flairs (some cheapos) with 30 inch tires and white wagon wheels on white paint. Ill post a pic soon. I think it might stay mostly stock for a while. I plan on getting back into offroading a little bit but mostly it will handle my hunting, fishing and winter needs.

    2001 Explorer Sport Road Noise

    and you are right. Plain and simple you need to figure it out by taking the weight off from the tire. If you can use a hoist simply put it in the air and put it in 4 wheel drive and use a stethescope to pinpoint the noisy corner.

    2001 Explorer Sport Road Noise

    drive it and pay attention to when the noise goes away when you turn. If it goes away while turning left it will be the left side and if it goes away while turning right it will be the right side. Then just pay attention to front and rear
