Did you reinforce the bumper? I like how it looks. Giving me ideas for my tire carrier.

That would be called your Sway Bar. It helps with the Body roll when going around corners.

Looks AWESOME! And it did help with the ride height and raised the rear? Like the look of your Montaineer

Sorry about that :-D I am gonna be building this one this time. It will take less work getting the 96 out on to the trail. As for the 93 it would take an arm and a leg to get it out there onto the trail. Tired of not being on the trail. Miss it to much.

Here is my 97 Explorer 5.0 AWD. I bought her for $250. has been a great vehicle for the times that I have driven her. Have not had a chance to take her off road yet. but soon I am hoping to. Just got to get her Registered. :) Here are my plans for her. Right now - Remove side Steps TT Add a...

no problem..

Thank you sir. I will look into getting the codes and report back as soon as I can. :-)

WOW I missed another part in my beginning. LOL. Also a 4.0 sohc. :-) I am not sure if I need to replace trans or what I need to do. The OD light blinks and it will not shift into over drive. It shifts fine from 1st to 3rd but that is all. I also have no Speedo. But not a big deal right now for...

My Trans does not go into 4th gear. I will be getting a trans from the Pull and Pay. Was wondering if it mattered what year I need to stay with when getting another Auto or does any 2nd gen Trans work in my 96? Thanks for letting me know. :) EDIT :-) It is an Automatic.

Do you have a picture of them mounted?

Look here sir http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/index.php?forums/explorer-ranger-solid-axle-swap-registry.63/

Look in the Solid Axle registry here in the forum. Has TONS on info for Solid axle swaps. From 1st gen to 2nd gen to many others.

I just started my Elite last night. Really liking this forum a lot so far. So much Knowledge up in here. :-) Here is my EX. its a 96 and a lot of plans for her.

Well things change a lot at my house. LOL I was able to get my hands on a 98 Sport. Picked her up for free. CAN NOT beat that at all. Here is what she looks like when I first got pics of her. Here is her Interior a little messy now but other then that it is almost perfect. Here she is...

Have you ever looked into doing a solid axle swap? That there would get you a lot more lift and a lot more flexibility. Cheaper in the long run also.

Looks like a great looking EX. Look forward to seeing what you do with yours. I also have a 96. Mine have the running boards on it though that are gonna come off. When I get a chance I will be doing the TT and the AAL or Shackles this will do till I get all the parts I need for my Solid Axle swap.

Well Change that I have got to get my 96 registered then I am good. Should be next month if money comes together :) Will let you all know as soon as I am able to. :) Maybe do a rainbow falls or China Wall. :-)

Very nice build sir. How is it holding up so far? Like how you did the brake lines.

Well its a change of plans. The 93 is not gonna get built. I will be building the 96 instead. The 96 has a lot less work to get trail ready then the 93. Also I need to get one of the running and registered soon so I can get out on the trails. Even if it is the easy ones that I run. Just need to...

Well hopefully someday you will be able to get thru S&L with out a miss hap.

This is a nice looking EX. Did you take gen one and put it on a 2nd gen EX?

Congrats sir.

I really like what you did here. Gave me idea's for mine when I get it up and running.

Looks great.

That's pretty awesome sir!

Looked like you all had a lot of fun

I work for a Trucking Company and I have a driver out that way. Hope you all stay safe out there.

Here is mine. I also have one on the back of it. This is my old EX And Here is my New EX.

Did you ever get this done.

OUCH!

I gotta get my 93 running and registered :-) Hopefully soon to get some wheeling in this summer.

Well dang it. :-(

Thank you sir.

I do not see how you can look up the links. Do you copy and past them?

Would a 1st gen Trans and transfer work in a 2nd gen? I have a 93 and motor is bad and I also have a 96 and the motor is good. Would like to keep the 96 Better condition. Thank you all for the help.

Can't wait to see the write up of your 1st gen.

Congrats @davidk

can't wait to get mine out here on the trails.

Looks really good.
