Welcome to the forum.Hello, does anyone know where I could get a 6-8inch lift for a 2006 explorer? I've been looking everywhere but cant seem to find anything.
I figured that out lolThe reason you can't find one is because there isn't one.
So does any ranger body lift work for an explorer?Welcome to the forum.
As stated, there are no lift kits made for your explorer. On my 3rd Generation I used strut spacers for 2” of lift, a 3” body lift made for the Ranger (see link in my signature) and went to 265/75/16 (32” x 10.50”) tires for about 6 inches of total lift.
Your CV joints and ball joints are the deciding factor in how much strut lift you can use, as well as the fact that your rear axles pass through the frame.
Here are a couple of pics, second one shows the truck compared to a stock X.

I think you might be referring to the bull bar.is your front bumper different than the sport trac front bumper? i cracked mine and yours looks dope.
When someone puts ‘front bumper’ and ‘cracked’ in the same sentence it’s usually in reference to the plastic bumper cover, unless they cracked a bull bar somehow .........I think you might be referring to the bull bar.
