    I had high hopes of doing loads this weekend, but I've torn my rotator cuff again and can't move my right arm, so had to enlist the help of my nephew.

    Made some progress today, installed all new driveshafts, new lower ballpoint, and almost have the passenger side all finished.

    Torsion bar relocation brackets are in after slight modification. My Explorer uses a different style of damper, so I had to cut the RC bracket to fit. Si

    How to: RC lift install help? 97 UK spec

    So, finally getting around to installing the RC lift on my UK 97 Ran into a slight issue when mounting the rear torsion bar brackets. Mine has earlier style torsion bar damper and this uses later style. Would you lop off the metal that's getting in the way? Si
