    Edelbrock or Bilstein

    I don't know if you guys have seen it, but skittles has a post on the Eddys for $54. It looks like a real deal to me!! Just go to her post and it'll take you to the web site. I've noted the page numbers for Explorers.

    Flip Rear Shock Mounts ?

    Paul, the main thing to keep in mind when doing shock mods is to keep shock travel greater than the suspension travel. So the shock is not the "limit" up or down. If you raise the lower mount and don't raise the upper you'll be using up a couple of inches of shock travel. When the axle moves up...

    Trailmaster kit for 95+ Explorers

    Jordan, look at the very back of your truck, underneath where the leaf spring attaches to the frame with a "shackle". If you make the shackle longer the truck and the spring (and therefore the tire) get farther apart. Since the tire can't go down (because of the earth) the truck has to go up...

    Replacing Shocks, PLEASE HELP!!

    OK Jodan, your turn. You're always raggin' on people about their posts. This guy knows about the Eddy's. He is asking about Rancho shocks. Pay attention!! I've riden in a '93 Ranger extended cab 4X4 that had the 9000's. The difference between hard and soft was amazing. You can dial up what ever...

    lifting rear of 97 sport

    Keith, my '97 Sport has the single spring also, but the spacers are under the spring. They are there to provide the proper spacing for the shock. You will not get any lift by removing them. An add-a-leave shouldn't give any drivline vibration, but it will make the already stiff ride worse! Mine...
