Hey, so you are here!

You told me you couldn`t figure out how to post pictures and I see two on a single post!
I don`t even know how to do that..

Welcome! Soon the girls will be hanging all over you, and everyone will want to be your friend just to be near such an elite individual. I heard someone won the lottery three times in a row after joining, and two people were instantaniously cured of terminal illnesses within minutes of the posting of their avatars!

I haven't posted here for a while, I've done a couple of more mods. I needed some tow hooks so I went to the wrecker and bought some f150 hooks. James and I figured out how to attach them, I like the look of them. I removed the air dam not sure if I'm going to cut holes in it or not. Here's a picture right before I blew a hub and had to actually use the tow hook. I also bought a receiver hitch shackle for a rear tow point.

Other most recent mod, ld50 and I did the manual hub conversion last night on my Ex. I blew one of the auto hubs so decided to go with Warn manual hubs. I don't have a pic but James you can put it up for me if you like . I can't wait to hit the trails and try them out.

[ld50]

-we also replaced the front brakes and repacked the wheel bearings with some new grease..

Good looking ride, man.

Man, I wish I was an Elite already. I'm planning to move and buy a house pretty soon, once that is done I will get the high speed internet and then be an Elite.

Newest mod Detroit E-Z locker in the rear. Check out the great write-up done my ld50 (aka James) http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=98865
