Ok, so I really really wanted a '97 TLC but as it happened I got a kinda free (going to have to get married for it but I'm ok with that cuz I really really lover her ) Explorer 2000 XLT going to make it an Expo truck. So anyway need some help with some questions I have developed while researching the differences and similarities.
1. Both are approximately the same size yet the Explorer is nearly a ton lighter?
2. Both have the same size tires and wheels yet the TLC has 11.4" Ground Clearance and the X has just 6.7" how can this be and is there anything that can be done about this?
3. I know you can only get about 2" from the TT and rear shackles but is there anything I can take off the bottom of the truck that will improve this more?
4. When I start adding all my Expo stuff on how do I increase carrying capacity of my X suspension?
Thanks guys
