Joe's Money Pit! 97 Explorer XLT

97' XLT 2x4 4.0 OHV from Saint Augustine Florida.


Things you cant see are Pace setter headers, delete 1 of 2 cats, Flowmaster 40 series and 2 1/4" pipe. I cut the air box off and put an open cone filter on the MAF sensor, Electric fan and did the "zip tie" mod found in the forums. Blue LEDs under the dash and in the cupholders.

I love getting comments and answering questions so lets have 'em! I will post pics as things get changed!

I put the bumper and rocker panels from a 99 on it and lowered it 2"inches

After I got the aftermarket headlights I wanted to add a twist to them, so I seperated the lenses and added LED strips in them.

My 1st Post has been updated :D

Im trying to find rims that look similar to these. The only thing I dont like about them is they are 9 inches wide.

That picture looks awesome. I especially like how it appears to have suttle 2 tone fading of gray and white.
