I bought her about 6 months ago the car (still stock) has about 165,000 everything is in good shape inside and out no leaks, front ends nice and tight. I recently ordered a 3 inch supension lift...

I'm sure we all know how top heavy the stock explorers are, and I was wondering if it is possible to lower the suspension a safe amount to counterract this, and/or lower the truck's center of gravity in any way. Any ideas are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Hi guys I would like some info from you experts. Im sorry if this is redundent but I havent seen this question posted in the threads. I recently bought a 1998 ex xlt 4x4 4.0 sohc on start up it has the timming chain rattle. From my research it seems I should try to get a 2002 sohc motor and...

Any suggestions? My caber was aligned "to spec" by Pep Boys, but the wheels sit like this when parked or after turning sharp. When I drive, they straighten out and are fine. I am not so much worried about the tires wearing as I am about having possible serious suspension issues. Also, my...

hey guys im planning on buying a spacer kit for my ex from btf and i know btf makes extended upper control arms but i dont feel like spending the money on them right away. how many of you are running the stock ones? any issues with ball joint life?

So I just finished putting the Warrior 153's on the back of my 1999 Mountaineer and it looks great but now the back sits higher than the front and I want to level it by using the Torsion Twist. I've soaked the bolts in PB an Deep Creep penetration lube and yanked on them with a breaker bar and...

I need a little help. I have a 02 Explorer XLT 4.6L. I've already taken off all connections to engine, and last things to do is remove engine from tranny and motor mounts, etc. My question is where should I lift the engine from? There are no lifting eyes on the block, and I don't want to...

Looking at tires I'm going back and forth between 31x10.5 and 32x11.5 could some of you running 32 inch tires put up some pictures. I've seen a few searching through the forums. Anybody that's run both have an opinoin on one versus the other. I'm going to be doing the Shackle/AAL/TT lift...

Yup, had these shackles (Warrior) and 2" springs (Rough Country) for a year or so, sitting around, gathering dust. Finally put them in today. The shackles took about 15 minutes, used a bottle jack between the spring and the frame to line up the bolts. Saw that in someone's thread and though it...

So I'm a new member and a long time Explorer owner. I recently bought a 1995 Explorer Sport and I want to make it more off road capable. It is my daily driver but eventually it will just be my hunting,fishing, wheeling vehicle. I did all of the normal things when I bought it. The tires were...
