    Is it 4wd or 2? If its 4wd, I'd run it in 4 Hi so traction isn't a concern and it will launch hard

    Modify seats

    I swapped in a set of Ford Freestyle seats in my 98 sport. I used the explorer power sliders but I had to build up a rear mount with some steel flat bar to catch the rear mounting holes on the seats. They are much more comfortable than the stockers and the right seat folds flat onto itself!

    How to: Convert V8 AWD to BW 4406 Manual Shift- A how to thread

    I made my linkage from a piece of 3/16 flat bar. I put the case and shifter in 4 high then just measured the distance from the center of the 2 posts. I drilled the 2 holes to fit tightly on the 2 posts then used a washer and a snap ring on each end to hold the flat bar on. It's been on there for...

    Cowl hoods

    I always loved them too. They looked great on the mustang as well

    Cowl hoods

    Is like to see some good options for our trucks also. I like cowl hoods but I haven't seen one yet that fits the lines of these trucks! I painted my grill 2 tone also because I thought it kinda set it off. Mine is a bright red 2 door with the mounty front end swap and I de-chromed the whole...

    Upgrading 1998 Explorer 4.0 to 2000 5.0 Issues

    You need the ignition key switch and key, the anti-theft module, and the computer from the same vehicle. They are all linked together and must match! If any one of these components is swapped the system will disable the injectors and it will not run

    Rhino line or plasti-dip? What do you guys think

    Did you rattle can it or buy one of the kits? They also sell the top coat for the dip that's supposed to keep it from fading and staining but I've never used it

    Rhino line or plasti-dip? What do you guys think

    Thank you sir! The paint has taken quite a beating over the years so I've been wanting to plasti dip it like yours. I'm torn between desert tan and the OD green

    Rhino line or plasti-dip? What do you guys think

    I'd leave that limited alone too. I just re-did the flares and rockers on mine. It was originally herculiner but it fades after a few years so I went over top of it with the duplicolor bed liner in the rattle cans and I love the way it turned out

    Want to make my 98 Eddie Bauer different then most. Need lift ideas PLZ!

    I'd start with cranking the torsion bars up (1.5-2" lift and free!) then do the add a leaf and warrior shackles in the rear. Rancho rs5000 shocks are really decent for the money and they list them for the explorer with 2 inches of lift. I got mine from amazon for 50$ each. You'll be able to...

    Second gen slider project

    Yeah I would never attach them to the rockers. One good hit and the rocker would meet the door!
