Not8taxi - Is your Ex lowered? If so which springs. And what size Cobra rims are those? 17s or 18s?

Sweet ride!!

I have a 3rd and 4th Gen. Mounty. I love the look of the 4th mirrors but the 3rd are much more user friendly. They 4ths have worse blind spot. I cut over on a car on the interstate a while back because of it. Not really a close call but still I cut them off a bit. I have thought about some of the square "blindspot" mirrors to put in the bottom corner of them. Not really stylish but functional.

How do you like the shock/spring setup?

Also, if you haven't already, I'd get a clear bra put on the front to protect that new paint job. Ride looks great and keep it up!

B-Rob, how did you mount the fogs in the tow hook space? I want to do that but haven't figured out how do go about it. Nice looking Ex, by the way.

Running boards

My 02 Explorer XLT… nothing too special about it & the pictures aren’t all that great either…

Things I’ve done to the exterior:

* Installed a set of OEM 17” chrome rims (originals pretty chipped & oxidized)
* Installed a set of Cooper Discoverer ATR 265-70’s (they replaced a set of 245’s)
* Removed OEM step-bars (starting to rust & never used them anyways)
* Removed OEM roof-rack (never use it & was curious about the look)
* Covered the cracked lift gate with a color matching plastic panel I made
* Added a bug-guard
* Added vent-shades

Things I’ve done that don’t show:

* K&N cold air kit
* Flowmaster 40 series
* Removed all 3 CATs (main one was shot anyways)
* Brown Wire Mod (BWM)
* Alpine head unit (have an iPod to plug in)
* Rockford Fosgate amp
* Memphis 12” sub (1 in a custom box… running OEM door speakers with most of their bass turned off)

And here she is:

.

Did you have to modify anything when removing the running boards?

Or did you just unbolt and remove? Please let me know as to I need to do this to my x to make it look better and have better ground clearance. I heard somewhere that you have to plug up the holes that are left from where the running boards used to be.

looks good wbrudi. sometimes I wish i didnt have fender flares, but i don like the mud flap lookin thing in the back

 

[wbrudi28]

yeah thanks man! i used your advice to get the rack off so props to you

and i'm not sure why i have no fender flares...not that i care because i like it without them as its more of a street look but i have the hood deflector, window guards and leather interior?
