I am trying to locate where they are to make sure that I have one. I see lines but nothing that looks like a mini radiator on the tranny. I want...

    Off-roading help

    Dont go heavy off roading if its your daily driver. It is not worth it being broken. Giving it that off road look is always cool. Go ahead and buy a jeep for like 500$ and beat the s%^&t out of it.

    In dash DVD / navigation

    Looking at getting a new head unit but I was curious as to which will fit in the 2006 X. If anyone has one with some pics that would be great. Looking for something that is affordable. I really want iPhone connectivity and touch screen. Navigation would be great but not a must. DVD is a must.

    Parking Sensors

    Hey I was just wondering if there is any way to turn the volume up on the parking sensors. I hear them but I would like them to be louder. It seems recently they have been kind of soft. My friends 03 explorer is much louder. Just wondering if anyone has heard of how or if it is possible.

    Advise on tires

    Bottom line is everyone has there preferences. Go online or to your local shop and check out what kind of tread pattern you like and what fits your driving style whether it be off road or highway or both.

    Tires

    just curious. What is the biggest tire size that can fit in a 2006 explorer without a lift and without rubbing. i want to switch over to the micky thomspon baja atz tires. Is the biggest tire size that can fit a 265 70 17?

    What I want to do!!!

    both wear pretty slow. Pretty sure the grabber has a 60,000 mile tread warranty.

    What I want to do!!!

    it depends on what kind of driving you do. If you go off road a lot and need that traction go with the mud KM2. If you just want a mean look go with an all terrain - a general grabber at2 or a bfg all terrain. The mud terrain wear out very fast on the road but they look awsome.

    What I want to do!!!

    I did some veriations for you aswell. What the truck might look like - NO LIFT - 265 Mud Terrain KM2 LIFT - FRONT - Just some more previews i came up with.

    BF Goodrich or Goodyear

    If you do more highway miles like myself but hit the trails on the weekend or whatever it may be you might want to look into the Nitto Terra Grapplers. Great on and off the road and much cheaper than both of those tires.
