Just got my EF license plate frames, modified them slightly. ST style.

I ordered four EF license plate frames from Turdle (Jon). I only have one plate on my ST but I'm going to add my USA-1 plate to a custom made plate bracket I'm making so I can have the frame more visible, the rear frame is kinda hard to see with the swing out tire carrier.

As soon as I got them out of the envelope I started the modification to change the Explorer climbing the mountians to a "My" Sport Trac. It's the only ST in the world with a swing out tire carrier fabricated to it.

Here's a couple pictures of the Ex frame and "My" Sport Trac frame. I'll add more picture's when I get the front plate mounted up.

Nice. I like quick, easy projects. On tomorrow's to-do list.

Btw, Gay-briel used to (still does?) have a rear swing out tire carrier. Not custom, though. I wonder where he's been?

That doesn't count, it's not part of the truck, it goes into the tow hitch (it's an accessery, like a vanity plate, LOL). I haven't heard or seen anything from him on either site in a long time. Maybe he sold his Trac like most of the older members are doing now.
