    255/85r16 fit with torsion twist and shackle lift?

    Err... I just checked with my buddy who I sold my old tires to, and they were 256/70.

    255/85r16 fit with torsion twist and shackle lift?

    Welcome to the site! I ran 255/75 at stock height on stock wheels. Had a tiny amount of rub at full lock on the sway bar, but probably depends on the tire. I'm assuming with a couple inches of lift you would be fine to run 85r. I know it's pretty far but next Sunday (Jul 16) some friends any I...

    4wd high light won´t turn on? 2003 auto, xlt

    I'm probably misunderstanding your meaning here, but you should be stopped in neutral with your foot on the brake to engage or disengage 4Low. It usually makes a pretty noticeable "thunk" noise. Glad everything seems to be working!

    4wd high light won´t turn on? 2003 auto, xlt

    The 4Hi, 4Low and O/D Off lights were all burned out when I bought my 03'. I'm guessing that's all your problem is.

    Here is a thread that goes over several options. Clicky

    Looking for exterior led mounting ideas

    20" light bar in the grill. Also have a 44" curved bar mounted to the roof racks but don't have a good picture yet. I ran the wiring through one of the holes under the kick panel trim that is behind the B pillar.

    Installed Roof Light Bar

    Looks good! Will be doing the same thing. Have the brackets, just waiting for the light bar to arrive. What bar did you go with?

    And to keep on topic, I got high centered in a mud hole :D

    What did you do this weekend? Participation required

    I figured that since you said you were modifying them. I do like the design though, is it something you made for a different application?

    I need a set of those! They look much better and stronger. My OEM ones aren't holding up to the abuse I've put them through lately.

    Wheel and tire fitment

    Input your wheel/tire specs in this: http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp OEM wheel Specs: 16 X 7; 12MM OFFSET Looks like it will fit just fine. I ran 265/70 on the stock wheels before the body lift, just had to do a little trimming.

    THX for Help!!! (Pic)

    Thanks for the explanation. Yeah, it was super easy to figure out once I got the part, especially since I don't have the brush guard. Just need to pull the bumper cover off now so I can trim it and the crash bar to fit the GMC/chevy tow hooks I got.

    I like it too, think I'll have to steal the idea for use on mine :) What kind of modification did it take to fit the tow hook brackets?

    THX for Help!!! (Pic)

    Sweet truck! My only critique would be to get the exhaust tip cut and mounted up closer to the body.

    Looking for some 2 inch wheel spacers for an 05 Sport Trac

    The Supreme Suspensions ones I got off Amazon worked well for the month I had em on. A buddy has two of them on his 95' explorer with no problems.

    BackUp camera install

    There are several pass throughs that are sealed with rubber plugs that run the length of the cab floor on each side. Just pop out the plastic kick panels that run along the floor and you can find them under the OEM wiring. I just popped one of the plugs out and drilled a hole for my grommet when...

    Swapped out ST radio bezel for 2nd Gen Explorer to get extra factory foglight switch.

    Thanks for this idea! Decided to paint mine silver along with the cluster surround. Also I'm not a smoker so I took out the lighter and replaced it with the bass control for my amp, then used the power lead to run the light bar. The bonus is that the circuit is already fused in the OEM panel...

    With a lil help from my friends....

    Good luck, I hope you get it figured out. Post up what you find, and if you want anymore diagrams, let me know. I'm hoping my issue just has to due with where the previous owner put in the after market radio or trailer hookups. Much more interesting things I'd rather be doing to the truck...

    With a lil help from my friends....

    I'll be trying to track down the same problem on my 03 this weekend. Here is the diagram for the charging system. From the 03 manual but probably the same for yours. Seems like you could be right, may have a short. I'm assuming the dealer checked for parasitic draw when you took it in?

    Auto theft deterrent blinking fast, I can't crank the car

    My first thought is to make sure your battery isn't dead.
