    Explorer Sport 4.0 to 5.0 Swap

    Nice looking Ex. It is the same color as mine. Is your Interior Blueish? I hope you are able to get what you want on your Ex. You can get the 1354 hooked up and it will get a little more power as then you will be true 2wheel drive. Also you can hook up the Front Disco to be Manually...

    WEEELLLLLLL My Ex died this weekend. :( Was getting ready to move her back to the Parking spot and she did not want to start. 1st thing I checked was the Fuel trip switch.

    How much lift to mount 32 x 10.5 x 15 Super Swamper tires?

    After getting the Add a leaf installed the ride did not really stiffen to much. I still like the ride of my truck. Once adding the add a leaf I have not flexed it yet. Here is what the spring pack looks like. Mine is the sport so just a 2 door. Normal rear leaf is a mono leaf. So I took a 4...

    Betty's "I want to be a mule" progress log thread

    Looks like you are gonna have your hands full. My 4.0 is leaking a bit also and not looking forward to getting the gaskets and things needed to make her not leak anymore. But in due time. She is not leaking so bad right now to be a huge threat.

    Brian1 91 XLT 4x4

    That is awesome Brian. I have often thought about having a donor motor to go over with to put in once this one goes. But for now she is a strong motor. Love seeing things like this. I might have to once I am settled again. In the process of moving again. :-D

    Well I did a little modifying on my hood. It is now like the 98 hood latch so I can have the grill insert. I like how it turned out. Drilled 2 holes and a little cutting on the grill turned out really nice.

    Well it is not possible to get to the river by a vehicle. They have blocked it off with a fence. Actually there is only one way down to the river and one way back from the river. To Club did an awesome job getting the fence up for it. The trail is very different now. At Poser rock there is only...

    I have been on this trail many times. I've been on it with a Stock height 92 with 30's and been on it with a 78 Blazer and with a 92 Bronco (Full Size). With the 92 the rear was a limited slip so that helped a lot. This on here is totally open. I am debating what to do. I have a limited slip...

    I have heard bad things about doing that also. I want to so bad. Just not sure about the CV joints just because of what you see there. They would be stretched out over this obstacle. I will have to do it then and get limit straps.
