    I will, i miss having a 4x4 but right now couldn't afford to drive it. I already have two v8 cars and it is killing me having to drive 70miles a day round trip with both the cars. I might have to get a 4x4 for this winter though. Maybe a 4cyl 4x4 ranger if I can find one or a 4x4 yota.

    Back in the game........

    well I got rid of the 4guage wire and fuse that was between the alt and the battery and hooked up the factory alt wire hooked up. I also hooked up one of the auxilery lights in the rear to the reverse lights. I was able to fix the rear hatch so it opens and closes properly. The next thing to do...

    Do i need lower gears?

    I ran 4.56's in my last explorer with 32's and it was great. I have 4.10's in the ex I have now and it doesn't accelerate nearly as fast as I want it to and I don't know how it does offroad yet. I will find out soon.

    Back in the game........

    installed the left radius arm bushing. Looked at the ones the PO gave me and they were not what they were supposed to be so I went and baught a cheap rubber one for now and it took the clunk away. It drives a lot better now too. I also noticed that none of the tires are balanced and that is...

    Back in the game........

    no red bumper this time but probably going to modify it to be closer to what I had. Maybe build a stinger off the front of the bumper and cut off that bull nose it has now. I want to cut it off to put the grill back on and make it look more like an ex again.

    I like black because it is just more classy. LoL. I am going to be doing a few drastick changes to the front bumper and I am going to make a basket for the roof instead of buying one. I am thinking about either making a better lift for the truck or buying one once I have the money to do so.

    Back in the game........

    Well I have been driving the truck for two days now and the engine light has stayed off so I guess the MAF sensor was throwing the cel light the whole time. It has been running pretty good today while I was out driving around running errands.:thumbsup:

    Back in the game........

    just got done working on the ex and found that someone installed an amp fuse between the battery and the alt. And it had fallen apart. I put it back together and the battery started charging. I am going to keep working on the stuff. Lots of little things.

    Back in the game........

    Back in the game........

    well I got the breaks and wheel bearings fixed and now I need to fix the stalling problem and the radius arm bushings. After that I need to fix the pass front door hindge. It drives pretty good and has power but does burn a little oil.

    I will have pics up soon. I am going to the title place to transfer my plates from my s10. I need to take the front wheels off and greese the front bearings because it is growling and I don't think he greased the front bearings after he was out in 3ft of water. I have already gotten the drivers...

    Back in the game........

    Well after a LONG and crazy night I finally got home at 5am central time with Jman689's '92 X on a trailor behind my wifes Grand Cherokee. Everything went great until the binder for the chain holding the front broke a mile from his house. So I wrapped the chain around the front axle and drove...
