After many years of my 1996 XLT sitting in storage it is time to start collecting parts for the explorer build..
My set up will be a full width Dana 44\9", Wild Horses 5.5" springs 5:13 gears and locked front and rear. Seems to me thats what most people have done on here and seems to work great
Let the prosess begin
Here is my XLT With the basic torsion twist, shackles and body lift
Here is the 9" that i will be running (been sitting outside)
ahh much better
HP 44
My steering witch i will be running with a first gen box..i also have a James Duff drop pitman arm for a first gen made for a 5.5" lift
Other parts that i have are: Bronco 5.5" coil springs,Bronco coil buckets from Bronco Graveyard. Bronco shock towers, 7 Degree C-bushings. All i need now is to gear an lock my axles witch will be happening in a few weeks and find a set of solid axle radius arms and brackets...im sure im missing a bunch but it will all be purchaced or made during the build..I will keep you guys updated..like i said im going to buy mu gears,install kits etc in a few weeks as soon as the moneys there..enjoy!
