    Autozone Shackles

    I have had mine on for about 2.5 years. No problems what so ever. Mine is also driven mostly on the street with ocassional off roading, but nothing hard core.

    I like my Goodyear RT/S tires

    I will agree that they last a very long time. But when they wear down they a bit iffy in the rain and downright horrible in the snow. When the roads were dry they did a nice job and handled well.

    Exhaust Systems for an 02 Explorer

    I do not believe any companies make a dual exhaust for the ex. Most people who have them went to a exhaust shop and had them custom made. I would suggest you check some of teh local shops to see who does custom exhaust work and have them give you a price.

    I have been using the cal water blade for the last 7 years and it is still working great. And like spindle cone said, you will still need a small towel, for the mirrors and other small areas.

    Ford Racing EGR spacer

    If I am correct it is to adapt the throttle body on a 87-93 mustang to the intake manifold. I had to get one for my 93 when I put a bigger throttle body on it.

    Whats the point of AutoZone?

    The autozone by my house is good. Most of the guys who work night and weekends also work at real auto repair or body shops during the day, so they are knowledgable. I have always like Advance Auto, they seem a lot nicer and they all know there stuff.

    Getting Ground Effects, Underglows, ETC.

    Street Glow is a good buy. They are very nice quality and show off a good amount of light. The gold series are the brightest, but the blue series is a little less money.

    Need a little lift help

    I have had a tt for almost 2 years and have no problem, what so ever. There are no lines that need to be extended with a tt and shackles. I am not sure about the bodylift, but there are numerous threads about detailed installation of a bodylift. One of those should be able to explain if any...

    Is your throttle body clean?

    I used the gumout stuff, it says it is safe for the special coating.When I clean mine, I use an old toothbrush. I open the butterfly fully and scrub the inside part, as well as the outside. I use a flashlight to check and this way seems to get the crud off the inside as well.

    Bendix Brake pads, Any better

    I have been using bendix on my ex fror the last 75k miles. I am very heavy on the braking and they have held up and never faded on me, even when I tried puposely to make them fade. I have also found they do not make any kind of screeching and my fronts have lasted almost 37k and they are still good.
