    200 Volts DC and me

    Wow, some of you guys are really lucky from some of these stories… Working in the electrical field, I’ve seen some guys get pretty f’ed up from some live hits… And I’ve been lifted and knocked-off a ladder too Spabula, no fun at all! :eek: BrooklynBay – Reading your post reminded me of an...

    Rear end noise under acceleration…

    BrooklynBay you were 100% right. The U joint felt “slighty” worn; had only a very small amount of play in the driveshaft… But once I removed it I found NO needle-bearings left under one of the caps! The rest looked adequate… but I couldn’t believe all I was having was a noise and not some...

    Exhaust/Muffler

    Yeah Jegs is just an “performance” parts selling company. I only went with them because the Super 40 was new and I had trouble tracking it down anywhere else without getting killed on a special order. I think I only paid around $60-70 for it, which was amazing. It cost me in the ballpark of...

    Rear end noise under acceleration…

    Thanks for the help. The mileage on the truck is about 110k, so I figured Ujoints weren’t far off from need replacement even if this wasn’t my problem. Most U joints Ive seen fail though make more noise under a coast, rather then an acceleration. Also I don’t really have any clunks when I...

    Realistic Gas Mileage Gains

    I went with just the cone-filter vs the entire intake (a lot cheaper…) because I didnt see much difference in the stock hose vs new tube... I don’t honestly know how much you would gain from the whole intake kit, but I know the cone did wonders compared to the highly restrictive airbox that...

    Rear end noise under acceleration…

    Alright guys first off I apologize if this has been addressed before, but I was unable to find it. I’m having a whole bunch of weird noises coming from the rear of my explorer under acceleration. Although it appears to be more frequent under “harder” accelerations it can make the noise under...

    Exhaust/Muffler

    I got the flowmaster super 40 installed at a Meineke. It was a duel in duel out that I had Y-ed into a single out the side. I had a larger pipe run and didn’t really have room for duels… Anyway I was really impressed with the sound. My girl thinks it’s a bit loud at times, but I love how...

    2” Body Lift ?

    I know there are tons of threads on body lifts… I’ve tried searching for this but I cant seem to find a part number for a 2” body lift to use on a 98 explorer. I understand using a ranger kit and possibly modifying the bumper brackets… but all the stores I’ve called lately seem to only have the...

    "Level Gauge?"

    I’m looking for a "level" gauge, but I can’t seem to find one. I’m looking for something to monitor the sideways tilt / lean of the vehicle. Just looking for something to spice up the dash a bit, I can probably tell when I’ve got it leaning to much ;) . Does anyone know a good place to buy...

    Advice from you Pro’s…

    First off, this site totally kicks ass. :cool: I have a 98 XLT 4WD, that just clearly needs to be lifted. I’m curious with what you guys would recommend. I plan to crank the torsion bars, add a leaf or change my shackles, for a couple inches in my suspension. Id like to get 33’s...
