Great place for parts, especially the annoying ones :)

Considering that Ford recommends you only use ford parts etc, you can take everything with a grain of salt. Some people may use different oil in their rides for different reasons. IF it's a stock truck, use whatever is "stock" for it. If you've managed to do any mods to it, then you might...

Rancho, Pro-comp, etc make shocks for the Explorer that are 4-6" longer. Just have to look for them as Explorer shocks "lifted 4-6" " www.shockwarehouse.com is one of our vendors...

As it sits Sorry it took so long to add another pic. Well here she is, 31" tires, all the u-joints/wheel joints are done, and still have yet to do add-a-leafs (this weekend hopefully).. Not much to look at, but I'm loving it :biggthump I'll snap a couple more tonight to throw up...

I don't want to be designated to choose between liking and deeming a beater :) Mine's beaterish, but I like it :) Maybe "Hey, we are all about Explorers visit us at explorerforum.com" :)

Very nice vehicle sir. Congratulations on EFFT.

Mine's got 3.27's in it, but I've never heard lower ...

bring pliers, and tread carfully ... and welcome :)

Could be either seal on the diff, they'll both leak down and form the same puddle.

^^^ Make sure to do this in a crowded area, and don't tell people why you are doing it :) Sorry nothing crucial to add, just thought that might be fun to do in like, a grocery store in line ...

36, most of the time 12-13 when I hang out with my kids :)

Here's where everyone laughs at me and says shut up Paul ... I had a similar grinding "noise" that got louder when I turned left, but not right. When all was said and done, it ended up being my power steering pump. I got a rebuild kit from rockauto, and voila, no more noise :) Take it...

Sent payment :) Hope I made it before the other 100,000 did :D Thanks Mark, headed there now :)

Am I too late? How did I miss this? Who knew there was explorerforum swag ... I'm going to randomly blame someone for this, just not sure who yet :)

Unfortunately, there are also inherant<sp> security holes concerned with doing such. Not saying it's hard to do, just saying it's more time to keep on top of it :) as to the topic at hand, great vids!

Wernstrom! .... Oh my, can you show me some of the assorted lengths of wires you've used on your truck? All kidding aside, Nice ride :)

I'll take yes for 100 Alex. That's like asking, if you'll make the boston marathon :) If the truck is running well, then I would say yes. If you've noticed slipping of the trans, or you're towing it with bailing wire and a handkerchief, then I'd say no. :D:D:D

So, Pics to follow soon, I got my 31" tires installed (looks nice), and added 2 "aux lights" to replace the busted driving lights I had. Received my U-joints, wheel joints, and add-a-leafs. Which should go on shortly. And pics will be up soon :)

And here is one taped and ready for color: Here is a quick comparison, between the new drivers side doors colors and the passenger side colors: And finally back in the Truck:
