    Reason A4LD is bad?

    Engine Swap

    Im going to stick with the 4.0 i got, i found a vortec for 2,900 but if i can find something a bit cheaper id probably go with that. the only concern i have for all that power is my A4LD, nuff said.

    Help, getting new muffler for '97 5.0 Explorer

    I would think the easiest way to do it is just buy a cat back system, it may be a little bit more expensive but it cuts down on the amount of work. Bolt on is the way to go...
