~*The before/after shots of my '98 EB Explorer!!!*~ I removed most of the before pics off my website, so now I only have the after shots. I am sure you guys know what a '98 EB X looks like. I have one pic of the engine bay, that shows the front grill. So I will include that... I painted it one day because I hated the dull gray/black look of the grill... The only things I have done is added tinted windows to the front, window vents, bug deflector, small Western brush guard, and a set of Hella lights for the guard. Not much compared to you guys, but it is a start... As for the Hella Lights for the guard, I will post them as soon as I get pics. I did not want to get a huge brush guard, I thought it would ruin the look of...

Before: After: I had just bought the truck for 4k with just over 100k miles on it, was just going to be a daily driver but decided to make it a capable off road vehicle. Soon you will see the transformation of this truck into the ZAPV or Zombie Assault Preparedness Vehicle. This is how I got the truck. I decided to put bed liner on all of the plastic parts, and it looked good. At this point I thought I was done with the body (foolish me) I was going to settle for a good looking with minor capabilities truck. I soon grew tiered of all the plastic wrapped around the truck, and the fact that the bed liner wasn’t sticking to it, so I pulled all of the plastic off and started over. I filled all of the holes left by the...

Well I installed a 3.73 l/s rear end, 3.73 with lockrite frontend, Superlift Superrunner 5.5 lift. Extended the rear driveshaft 3/4". Replaced a ton of U-joints, front spindles, brakepads, etc. Extended superlift brakelines, Rancho RS5000's for the front, did a SOA with superlift brackets (gonna get them welded to the bottom perch so they don't move) and still on my 31" tires. Here is the finished result. Before: After: And the front suspension:

First off many thanks to Kodiak, Jeff Seal, and Dale Theissen for the parts I purchased from them, everything was in great condition. I have installed a six inch skyjacker class I lift up front, this also included drop swaybar brackets, and quick connects, new brake lines, and a skyjacker steering staybalizer. For the rear I went with 4 inch superlift springs, and warrior shackles, running 4 inch explorer pro comp shocks mounted to sway bar mount, this temp till I get the 6 inch shocks. Total lift was 6 inches upfront, and 6 1/2 in the rear, no driveshaft issues at all:p The camera was dead this weekend so next week I will get pics up. Next project, 3 inch body lift to fit those 35's:D Also thanks to Hank, all my bushing are...
finaly got her back after the eight day surgery at 4wheelparts memphis. 6in superlift with super runner steering, extended radius arms and SOA in the rear. Running stock wheel with 33x12.50 procomp mud terrrians . Only runs when I turn extremly hard one way or the other. Only played in it slightly the other day kinda waiting until i take it for the ten day checkup and all. Quick question..... How bad do i need to throw the auto hubs in the ditch and get some warn manual ones? Will the autos still work or are the ygonna break under anykinda 4wd load? Used them a little last night while testing her out and they seemed okay i guess. Oh well just asking. heres the link Dead Link Removed
