    Cracked Bed ?

    btw a v8 will not change the material that the bed is made of he'd still have the same problem no matter what size his engine, i think you're referring to towing capacity not the amount that can be hauled inside the bed

    Help needed here.

    do you need one or are you pulling yours off? i need to pull mine off to put in some dynamat... i'm pretty sure the 1st thing you remove is the pull handle; take out the phillips-head screw then remove the handle. i would think it would then come off like a regular door panel if i'm correct on...

    6x9s in a 98 4 door explorer

    you will have to use some kind of spacer or cut the hole larger, i'm not 100% sure but i think you will have to custom make the spacer because all the adapters i've herd of only allow smaller speakers to fit
