    Finally Got Some 32’s

    We’ll 31.6” technically. I’ve wanted some since I got the truck in 2011 and I finally did it. I like how it came out. I had to do some trimming in the front but nothing too bad. So far the 3.55 gears are ok. I’m driving it for a while before I decide if I want to spend more on 4.10’s.

    My 2000 Explorer Sport 4.0 SOVH Died

    My Exploder died on me the other day when I was pulling out of a parking lot. She started up fine, then misfired and flatlined. She cranks like a champ, fuel pump works, runs for a few seconds when I spray starting fluid in the intake and I just replaced the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Any ideas???
