Just bought a 2003 Explorer XLS. The engine was running roughly so I took it to the local garage. They say the #5 cylinder is a little down on compression but we can hear a popping out of the exhaust. What should we be looking for, are these things known for head or valve problems? FYI, all...

Yup yup, love your BII! FYI, I did this mod with canvas, not clear plastic, and it worked out great.

You say you want to do the 5x5.5 axle conversion? I bought a set of 31 spline Explorer 8.8 axles from Dutchman axles. Unfortunately I got the wrong lengths. These axles are new in the box been sitting in my shop for about 3 years. They are for a 98-01 Explorer/Navajo or a 97-01 Mountaineer. They...

I've looked into this setup as well and one would need adapters, spacers on the front to match the rear width. Any ideas on where to get these spacers?

Could I make a suggestion? Make this thing searchable and go back and reload the pictures, there are a bunch missing.

I know this is an old thread but FYI I just ordered another set of front and rear fenders from Perrys and the shipping was only $160 to a business address. The fenders were 300 front/ 400 rear.

Parts stores have a spray product called OZIUM. Shake well, spray in the air copiously and close your truck up for a day. Repeat as necessary. I had a truck that went thru a forest fire with the windows down. It only took a couple of days to de-stink it.

Nice little truck

remove the inspection plates located on the engine side of the firewall. Water drains thru the vents below the window and, after some rusting, leaks into the interior to funk it all up. about 1/2 of my BII's had this affliction.

+1 for McNeil's fenders, good stuff!

What size are the spindle bolts for the d35? I've misplaced my old ones.

Any updates on your rig? My own project is pretty close to yours except mine has D35 and 8.8 with 4.88's. I also have an EB D44/9" that I've rebuilt with 4.88's. I just picked up another straight BII with no engine or tranny, perfect fro these axles to sit in. I also went with Perry's 6"...
