For Sale LIFTED 1999 5.0L Eddie Bauer Explorer 4x4 5" Superlift

Ok guys. editing the ad for changes. Just going to copy and paste my Craigslist ad.

Up for sale is my 1999 Eddie Bauer Ford Explorer with an overall 9" lift. Has all options, power everything, leather heated seats, full aftermarket audio system etc. It has the 5.0L V8 and has had quite a few modifications done listed below. It's in overall good condition with 159k miles; I would give the truck overall a 7 out of 10. Has typical explorer rocker rust with some minor scratches here and there, but all things considered it's in pretty nice condition in and out.

Factory wheels and Michelin tires have about 70% life, brakes were recently done, front hubs replaced, oil changed, transfer case fluid changed etc. The truck has $4000 in aftermarket parts alone. It would make a great off road or mud truck to run next to the lifted Jeep or even a fun daily driver. Truck also just passed NJ state inspection as of April 2015 so is good until April 2017. Currently sitting on the stock wheels/tires but I also have a set of 35x12.50 BFG All Terrains mounted on Cragar 15x8 wheels.

Price will include 1 of the two sets of tires/wheels of your choice, if you want both sets of wheels/tires add $400. The 35's have decent tread and would be good if you ever wanted to go off road, but they're cupped so really should be replaced to drive on the street.

Options:

Tan Leather (no rips or tears)
Sunroof
Power everything
Heated seats (yes they work)
3.73 Limited Slip rear
V8 AWD
Towing Package

Aftermarket:

Projector Headlights
HID's
Brush Guard
Superlift 4" suspension lift with brand new superlift front double cardan driveshaft
Warrior Rear shackles and front torsion twist (lifts another 1-1.5" over the Superlift)
Cold Air Intake
Side exit catback (truck has a really nice rumble)
Tinted Windows
Full Kenwood audio system, headunit and all speakers have been upgraded
35x12.50x15 BFG's on Cragar wheels.

Also included with the truck are some spare parts. Brand new Dorman cam sync, NOS Factory Ford oil dipstick tube and a new stock front driveshaft.

Bump. Just did an oil/filter change and truck just passed 2 year NJ state inspection. Good until April 2017.

Bump! Since no one wanted it as a 2wd needing a superlift driveshaft. I decided to just buy it myself. So the truck now has a brand new $500 superlift driveshaft and the AWD works flawless with the lift.

Nice looking truck.

Thanks. I hate to let it go but I need the cash. I'd love to sell my 96 and keep this one, but reality is my 96 isn't worth much.

Here's a link to some more pictures so long as it doesn't get flagged or I delete it to bump it to the top.

Can you post some pics of where the rust is and possibly the under side of the engine?

Sure I'll get some up later today. Basically your normal rust for a vehicle of this age, but the bad sports are the rockers (typical explorer). Frame and such looks great though, all brake lines and everything I believe were replaced at one point because they look great, both front hubs also replaced recently.

Eh why not, here's some pics now. I was going to wait until I got home and not do it on company time but I just ran out at work anyway; I could use a minute away from my desk.

$400 price drop. $4900 takes it with all the spare parts.

Bump!

Memorial Day weekend price drop $4500 takes it.

Just made a 4 hour round trip back and fourth to NY yesterday with no issues. Got 18 MPG in traffic.

Bump, taking reasonable offers.

Took the truck on a 9 hour trip this weekend without so much as a hiccup (it has 158k on it now). Come on guys I know this is the perfect truck for someone. No interest at all?

Quick bath this weekend.

Bump $4,300.

Ok guys I can't believe I'm going to give this truck away but $3,800 will take it. I need the cash it has to go soon.

BTW guys I'm willing to sell without the wheels and tires if you have your own set you want to put on and I can drop the price a bit more. This poor girl really deserves a set of 33's anyway.

Well I decided to pull the door panels today to see what was hiding as far as audio and found this. So looks like the PO didn't lie to me when he said it had aftermarket speakers too

I'm still amazed someone hasn't bought this, and if i had any cash i'd probably go for it.
