    Explorer 94 on 37, help!

    Lucky for me our 94 Explorer is already set up perfect for a solid axle swap. However, I will wait till my 33" Red letters die, then adjust the TTB to handle 35's then if needed I'll do a SAS. In the mean time I can search for the perfect Solid axle for it. be it D44 or D60. tim

    traded the Ranger

    Since we got number 9. we didn't need two midsize 4x4s. We needed a hauler. So today we traded our 2020 Ranger FX4 on a 2023 Ford Expedition XLT. HD towing package, room for the grandkids. The ranger was a great truck. Hope it goes to a good home. Tim
