New to the Forum, need some help

[Blivot3]

Hey, I wanted to do a big project on my Ford Explorer and being my first car and all.... I have no idea what I am doing..

thinkin about:
putting a lift kit, sound system, and a new exhaust

possibly repainting it..
this whole idea is still up in the air for me.. so if anyone out there can help me.. that would be greatly appreciated!

My vote is for remote trans fluid filter kit, trans cooler, and synthetics in the front & rear diff. Then stereo, paint, chrome tips, etc...

Make sure you post some before and after pics

Yeah.. Def all the tune up stuff, fluid stuff, then the mod stuff.

And remote trans fluid filter kit??

Ok, wow! thank you all for the great info!

I called some mechanics in my area.. and one of them said that Ford 97 explorer models do not any lift kits made for them because of the torsion bar is welded on rather than bolted on. any more info on that?
