    Help with wheel offset please!!!

    Can somebody please try to help my semi retarded brain understand if the wheels my wife wants will fit on her explorer? It's a 2013 Explorer XLT. Came with factory 18's which I believe are 44mm offset. I'm looking at going to 20x8.5 with a 35mm offset. I'm leaning towards 275/45R20 tires. Will...

    Weekend Fab Project

    Decided to make a few mods to my 89 B2. Some time back I had gotten a tube front bumper from a member on another forum. I added a front receiver hitch for use with a Multi-mount winch and also for a hitch carrier. I decided that I didn't like the multi-mount setup and wanted to change it. First...

    I just did this on my 89 B2. I was able to order a complete hardware kit from www.dufftuff.com. Maybe you could check with them.

    1989 B2 Headliner project

    Fiberglass came from the local hardware store. No cloth used. Just poured the resin directly onto the headliner board. Used 3M spray for the foam and material.

    1989 B2 Headliner project

    The headliner in my B2 was in pretty bad shape. Decided it was time to fix it. Took the liner out, and had to fiberglass the whole thing to keep it from falling apart. After that was done, used a lightweight bondo to smooth the whole thing out to prep it for recovering. Then laid down new...

    Body bushing hardware

    I just received my body bushing kit from James Duff. I knew it didn't come with the required hardware. And none of my factory hardware will be reusable. I'm planning on getting all new 1/2" bolts, locknuts, and washers to install with. My question is go I need to put a sleeve inside the...

    Winch, bumper, and receiver mount ideas

    I thinking about ditching my receiver setup for my winch. I would like to hard mount the winch between the frame rails and move the bumper/ receiver mount out a little further. Is there anything special I need to do to strengthen the frame? I'm also on the fence as to weather I should bolt or...

    Wanted to say hello

    Not long after I got the truck, I got a 8000lb Warn winch. I figured that a multi mount setup was what I wanted to do. So I added a front mount hitch. Wasn't really happy with it, but I figured that it would do. At the same time, found a member on a different forum that was selling a...

    Wanted to say hello

    Actually, some of those ideas I like, but probably won't ever happen. The truck is mostly used as my hunting rig so I don't tear up my big truck. It will have 31's on it by the end of the summer. After she gets re-geared. I'm also working on an winch mount behind the front bumper, a roof rack...

    Wanted to say hello

    It has a 4" lift (not sure of brand) on it. Right now it's sitting on 29x12.5x15 Super Swampers on it. The previous owner had done the axle swaps before I got it. It's got a Dana 35 front axle and an 8.8 out back. Right now it has 3.55 gears. I'm about to swap out the gears for some 4.56's. I...

    Wanted to say hello

    Found this forum a couple of months ago when I bought my bride a 2013 Explorer. As I looked around on here I found the B2 forum. Since I have one that I am currently slowly getting exactly how I want it, I figured I stop in and say hello. Here she is the day I got her home and off the...
