Here are few pictures of my last Explorer after a head on with a drunk driver. The combined speed of impact was over 120mph. My ex-wife and I walked away with only a few bumps and bruises as well as me having a minor cervical fracture. Can't say that for the driver or passenger of the other...

Now that I have my lift complete its time to complete the project so I'd like your opinions on how to complete the "look" of my X. Basically the only differnce in the way the truck looks in this pic and it's present state is the 31s being replaced by 33s. My questions are: Should I remove my...

This is a pic of my 96 XLT 4x4 with 3" body and 2" TT/AAL/Shackle lift. And a recent one of me.

I just got my new wheels mounted. Actual pictures will be coming soon but till then these will have to do. Demensions: 15x8 w/ 3.5 BS

I just finished the istall of my 3" body lift and have a problem, my !@@!#$@!$ front bumper is crooked!!! By this I mean it is lower at the back than it is in the front, there is about a quarter inch of clearance under the headlights but a little over an inch at the rear. Have any of you had...

HELP 2nd gen body lift question I ordered my PA-853 body lift earlier this week and should be seeing anytime now. My question is this, do I need to get any bolts other than those included in the kit? The "Useful Thread" on this subject doesn't mention them but it seems like I have read...

If any of you have been debating on buying a set of Metrinches Wal-Mart is now carrying the full 62 piece set at half of normal retail! I picked mine up last night and couldn't be happier, getting a $150 set of tools for less than $80. These things also have a lifetime replacement warantee...

I'm getting ready to order a few things for my Explorer from 4WP and have a couple of questions. I currently am running a 2" TT and Warrior shackles, this leaves my rear sagging a bit so I'm going to install an add-a-leaf. Should I go with a single or double AAL to get it riding even to just...

Well my transmission has pretty much lived it's life to the end and its time for a rebuild. I've done some pricing and it seems that Cottman, AAMCO, and the Ford Delership are gonna give me the best price $1500 to $1600 unless there is "hard part" damage and all have the same 12/12 warrantee...

OK, I've been having a problem with my X's tranny not wanting to go into drive from neutral and hesitating/ slipping as it shifts into 3rd gear. I finally broke down and took it in for diagnostics and it showed a bad gear ratio possibly from an open circuit in the harness, selenoid trouble, or...

Now everyone makes at least one don't they? So what's your resolution??? Myself, I resolved to start back lifting weights regularly and begin working my way back to my target body size, I also resolved to try to be more efficient in my business, procrastinate less, and squander less money. I...

There is a new SUV coming onto the market that makes even the baddest X look like a panty-waisted ricer! I just put the for sale signs on my '96, hopefully I can get enough for a down payment. Wondering what I'm talking about? Take a look at the Dead Link Removed , I'm gonna order the...

I know that 2" is the highest that most of you recommend for lifting a 4x4 with a TT, but how high have you seen one go without damage? I installed my Warrior shackles yesterday and they gave me a little over 2" of lift, I then cranked up the torsion bars to level it out, since it was in a nose...

I'm getting ready to add a TT/ shackle lift to my X. Should I lose the running boards or leave them? If I loose them I plan to fiberglass the holes then Rhino line the rockers. What do you guys and gals think? Any better ideas of how to spiffy up the rockers if I pull the boards?

Does anyone have any before and after pics of a second generation with a TT/ Warrior lift? Or even just a pic of a second generation that only has 31s and the TT/ shackle, I know how mine looks now even though it does sit oddly short. I am pretty much sold on the set up but would like to see...

Well I know its a little late to be asking but I'd like to know what I've gotten myself into. I just ordered myself a set of four Maxxis MA-751s (Bravos) in 31x10.50 for my Explorer 4x4. Has anyone had any experience with these tires? It was either them or the Buckshot Mudders and I chose the...
