    Help Need info on best lift for my 96 explorer

    actually there is only 1 lift available for the 2wd explorer in that year. That would be the Bullseye spindles, unless you want to go w/ a body lift. The Bullseye spindles are great, because they don't change the ride of the truck but give you tire clearance and ground clearance w/o changing the...

    Are Explorer and Ranger front suspensions the same?

    The only part in the front suspension that is the same, are the front coil springs. The I-Beams are different on a ranger and the explorer. The explorer I-Beam are longer, the explorer has a wider front end. See Ya Rick

    Suspension Lift

    GEORGE, The Skyjacker class 2 kit is awesome. The Superlift kit is good also, but i think the coils from skyjacker are better. They are a true 6" of lift and there dont sag over time.

    Monroe Sensormatics

    I have sold Monroes, Edelbrock, KYB's, and bilstein's. If you are looking for a high quality shock that performs well on and off road, go with Bilstein. KYB is another good quality shock. I have had better luck with Bilstein and KYB, than Edelbrock and Monroe. Bilsteins are the best shock on the...

    What do you think of Sears shocks?

    For your Explorer there are 2 good sets of shocks for it. Either KYB's or BILSTEIN's are what I would run. Why? they are both gas pressurized, not hydraulic. They will not faid when under extreme or everyday use. KYB's are a japenies version of the bilstein. The bilstein is still a better...

    Shocks

    If I am not mistaken there is only a 3" spindle lift available for the 97 explorer. If you are getting the spindle lift you do not need to replace the shocks. If you want to replace the shocks because their warn out, I would get BILSTEINS all the way. They are the best shock on the market, when...
