How Capable???
Do you have a 2dr or 4dr? It may be pretty capable, but that's not comparable at all really. The explorer is much heavier than the sami and not geared even close, and has a lot less ground clearance.- FROADER

Winch mount is done!
Go IZ style and get rid of the grill all together!! :p: It doesn't seem too bad at the bottom of the frame like that. For the bumper, I say make a bolt on like IZ did. That's my plan.- FROADER

Gears not low enough!!!
You won't be able to fix this unless you gear WAAAY down, get a new transfer case at least 4:1 or lower or get a different trans. The automatic trans' first gear is not even close to low enough.- FROADER

Front locker choices?
A lot of people are really happy with their Aussies. I had a Tru-trac in my old one with 35s and it did great. I also have one in my current one. Love it.- FROADER

need help getting explorer running
I would say, see if you can find a complete engine (running of course) to just swap. That would make life a lot easier IMO. They can be found for $300-$700 on craigslist or check a junk yard. Welcome to the site. :thumbsup: EDIT: check race-dezert.com too...- FROADER

FROADER's '04 E-350
I found an air horn in the shed... I mounted the compressor where the stock single horn was. Then I found two holes in the bumper to mount the horns. This was one of the easier installs of air horns for me. It took about 20 minutes from taking the grill off to putting the grill back on.- FROADER

New FJ bodys are ripping after 4 wheeling!
I'll have to ask my uncle (service writer for toyota) and see if he has heard anything about this. That's crazy! Like ld50 (it's an L) said, 107 so far. I wonder how many haven't seen that thread yet and posted. :eek:- FROADER
