Taken from my add:

These 2 items are the bump stop extensions since I did the coilover conversion I tossed these in the trash. You will need to buy these from Superlift.
55-09-9630.compression stop bracket driver side (bump stop)
55-10-9630.compression stop bracket passenger side (bump stop)


This item was welded to my frame when I did the coilover conversion, and had to be cut off when I did the SAS. So this part will need to be purchased as well.
55-08-9630.differential lateral support bracket

Sh'es a bit of a pavement queen for the next week or so till the BL gets here. And as you can see I started, all the trim/bumpers are going to be black.



The little horns in front grill are as a joke....the real train horns are the set of Nathan K5L's and shockers in the back


what did you use to paint the trim/bumpers?

9 Years ago I bought this new to the scene truck. The 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. My first 4x4 truck.

Keeping the same vehicle for 9 years is a real achievement for me. Before buying the Sport Trac I had never kept a vehicle more than 2 or 3 years. Always staying in vehicle debt. Always upside down on the loans. Owning my 2000 Explorer Limited is also breaking records for me. In August, I will have had the Limited for 5 years.

Someday I will have to sell these trucks that I love. But, for now I celebrate my anniversary for owning them.

Here's some pictures from the first weekend I took out my Sport Trac. It was 4th of July weekend year 2000. Me, my daughter, and my girlfriend went camping in Big Bend National Park. It was hot, but it was fun.

Right on! I can totally relate to your new vehicle every 2-3 years and being upside down on loans and what not.(8 vehicles in 12 years of driving) I'm thinking it won't be a problem to have my sport trac for a loooooong time to come. They're great vehicles!

That is a really great first picture, the last one needs to be deleted. We can't have that kind of stuff getting around. I have a similar picture but my old 2dr Explorer was pulling the heep out of the mudhole and back to the trail head.

Did my TT/shackle lift last weekend. Threw on some 265/75/16 tires yesterday, next will be a body lift so I have more space for the tires, even though it has some decent space, I want more.

small crack in the bumper on passengers side, don't know how, there when I bought it. 2001, 51,000 miles, uncommon color, free lights for the roof, K&N airflow soon to be TT'd and shackled. Reminds me of jurassic park.
