sorry foot print

Maybe cause it's giving a slightly bigger fitprint now?

Are they really noisy on the road?

Anyone have experience with these tires? Debating wether I should go with these or the Goodyear Mt/r's.

I have a box for shipping that was used for my running boards. If you need them to ship something first come first serve I am in the chicago area just email me.

I like that, it's very cool!

Pictures....ahhhh send them my way!:D

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's 95 through I forget what year but I asked my salesman which he didn't know jack but the service department took care of it while I was having something else done. Good luck and let us know how it goes at the dealer.

Hmmm.......well my truck has 97k I think I'm still on the original shocks judging by the rust. My truck really rides nasty but it sure doesn't sway over bumps. But then again it always rode a bit stiff cause it's on a truck frame. Did you know that there was a recall also on the endlinks...

Most certainly! I would definately raise a big stink at the service department start off calm......then if they don't listen start blowing steam out of your ears and let them know your not joking lol.

By the way what type of horrible ride are you feeling is it like a pulsating, vibration? And how many miles does your truck have that you had to have the shocks replaced?? Usually stocks are good maybe I'd say depending on driving habits for at least 60k.

Are you certain that they aren't trying to pull something over your head? I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything but I don't run into many honest mechanics anymore. For all you know your shocks might be perfect and it could be something in your front end, or maybe your tires aren't balanced...

Good idea. I think if I do end up doing it it'll have it behind the wheel, I'm getting nerf bars on the sides too so I don't want to have to go under them and have possible clearance issues if I ever go off roading.

Good point about the discoloration. Wasn't there some kind of recall with the F series pickup trucks when they came stock with side exhaust?

Sure why not??? They are so cheap these days.

Cool! Do you have a picture of it?

Before it. Isn't there an emission law that it has to clear the cabin?

Side Exhaust on 95 Explorer 4 Dr Anyone ever put side exhaust on there 4 door explorer? I'm thinking about it for my 95 XLT with some twin borla tips.

Also how much do 2" lift kits start off at? I seen this one on Ebay for sale dunno how safe it is: http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1829227627&r=0&t=0

I was also reading about it somewhere.....but can't you get it calibrated at the dealer to match your tire size I think I read an article on here about "pcm"? I'm not sure if that's right??

One more thing I forgot to add.......how much will this effect my speedometer accuracy by also?

I'm just wondering if the goodyear mt/r 31x10.5x15 will fit my 95 4 dr explorer 4wd with stock ride height no mods???

That's good to hear.....that is also one of my main reasons to switch to a bigger tire for handling also, we get a lot of snow in chicago and I want to be on top of things. You wouldn't happen to have a picture of your new tires mounted on the truck would ya? I am just curious to see how much...

That's an awsome deal.....!!! Now having a 31 inch tire do you notice a difference in acceleration(sluggish?) or any other differences after installing the mt/r's?

I am planning on purchasing Goodyear mt/r's in the near future and I was wondering if I could fit the 31x10.5's on my stock 15" rims. I have a 1995 Ford explorer 4.0 stock height and no modifications. If not I was planning on going with the 30x9.5's just to upgrade the size a little from the...

anyone out there know what has to be done as for regular maintenance on a diesel truck?

Oh hey one more thing 95XLT I just wanted to ask you if you spoke with your dad yet about the maintenance on a diesel engine, you said he was a diesel tech?

I'm learning more towards a 4wd truck because I live in chicago I don't have too much tolerance for getting stuck in the snow. Yes, that's what I was debating on also a diesel or a 460 either way is nice hell if I had the 460 and it blew up I can always rebuild it and drop it in a mustang lol.

I'm pretty sure if it was a 460 block it would definately be a C6 I don't think they even make one that fits a big block. Maybe a C4 with a 351.

Anywhere from an 82-93, believe it or not I've found plenty of diesels for under 3k, there was one that caught my eye but it was all the way in nebraska scratch that thought. Well if I do end up with an auto as long as it has over drive I won't complain. I also remember reading something about...

Hey leen we replied to that paragraph at the same time, jinx!! haha Anyway....I just remembered something else I know I don't see to many F350's and other heavy duty trucks with manual's as much as I do the autos could that be for a reason perhaps? Speaking of crappy transmissions on explorers...

I was hopefully finding something good running for 3k or less, I'm not to cocerned about looks just as long as the door isn't falling off. Hmmm don't get an auto eh? I brought that subject up in a conversation with my buddy he was talking about how auto is better to tow with because it's not...

Boat & trailer total weight I'd say about 3000lbs. I'd rather go with a heavier duty truck 3/4 ton, I also plan on towing a mustang and trailer whenever the project is complete.

Heck ya! It's a 1.50 out here in the city.

Michigander....I'm not sure yet depends on what kind of deal I can find, actually I was looking for something used it's not gonna be an everyday truck. I was also looking at the older 6.9 diesels as an option how different is that compared to the new powerstroke? I mean I know the powerstroke...

Hello all, I'm trying to get some pros & cons about getting a powerstroke or the 6.9 diesel F250 as my towing vehicle because the 4.0 explorer just isn't cutting it. Is a diesel more maintenance, what do you have to do, and is there a site I can refer to? My other option is going for the...

I notice this recently since the weather has been turning colder. The only thing that I can think of is the grade of engine oil I use. Back when I used to get 270 on my trip meter with my 95 exp with an 18 gallon tank during the summer when I was milking it to the bare bottom and that's when I...

Hey all....just wanted to let everyone know about the results after I swapped out the thermostat. I replaced it with a stock replacement 195 and it runs a lot warmer now! The guage actually went up to half way today on my 95, it does get cooler when I take off from a stop but once again it...

Try "lucas" oil additive they also make it for the differential, and trans. It's really good stuff you'll notice the engine running quieter, it's also known to stop leaks, and burn less oil.

What is the best way I can clean the MAF can I just spray it with carb cleaner and let it air dry, also can I clean it a bit with a cotton swab? And the idle air.....is that the sensor that has a sampling tube right before the throttle body?
