    Tranny Problem

    Andrew check this site, just found it searching... looks like the tranny can stay. Perhaps the seal on the reverse portion has "dried" out due to not much usage? http://www.atcdg.com/TechBulletins/bull_122.htm Chad

    Here we go again (pic)

    Hey Cory, love the new project and I am thinking on doing something similar with the back of mine. I have a question though... How sturdy is the front cab portion with the rest of the body cut away? I am thinking I would like to tube the X but I really want to have a semi-sealed from...

    FAKRWEE Navajo 44 swap

    At first it was really bad but I am using the Early Bronco setup and I had Way Too Much positive camber. Once I changed my bushings to a 7degree it lessened the problem. I would think that they considered caster before they welded the links and you will not have the hunting/darting effect...

    FAKRWEE Navajo 44 swap

    Fakrwee All that I can say is... amazing. You have done a great job of giving the rest of us something to aim for on the perfect truck. I commend you for using excellent components while keeping in mind the daily/cost factor that limits us all. If I were to invision the correct way to...

    HD shocks question...

    If it is on a street truck, I would think that you should not have much problem. If it is for offroad the compression cycle will be too short and you will limit your uptravel and at worst break a shock mount, ask me how I know.

    4-6" lift coils - what else works?

    PS Oh, and I have been told that you can adapt your upper coil mount without switching to an EB style. Bend out all of the coil retainer tabs and use a J hook to retain the spring.

    4-6" lift coils - what else works?

    Springs Well I will be switching to a set of Early Bronco springs soon due to the flex/ride issue that I have currently. But take in account that a 2.5 inch EB spring will give you about 4.5-5 inch on your X. I am going with a 5.5 inch spring on mine for roughly 8 inch lift.

    4"- 6" on 91 Explorer EB

    Lift Well having seen many drop brackets crack from the stress that they are put under I would say yes and no. I feel that if you go with a large suspension lift, with brackets, I would not go more than 4 inches and if you did... go with the SkyJacker if you can find it. I had a James Duff...

    4.0 Upper engine mods

    4.0 Performance Doug, WOW thanks for the info. I have done a few of the bolt ons and I am really wanting just a bit more from the engine. I have a feeling that the pushrods are mushroomed or the lifters are going cause I have some lifter noise. Most fords that I have had, have that same...

    Well stock injectors were 70-85 EACH and they sold an entire set of matched high flow for 220 for all six. That price I liked! Have you bought any of their products?

    Stuffed 35" - Perfectly Trimmed Fender

    I had heard the same thing about the sidewall strength and since I only want one set of tires I really like the MTR or I might try TSL radials or siped TSLs not totally sold on any of the ideas yet. Did you have any problems with the BFGs? Some of the guys in my club like them but kept...

    4.0 Upper engine mods

    Has anyone rebuit their 91-94, 4.0 with performance parts. I am interested in doing some upper engine mods like, roller rockers, cam, perhaps some head work and was wondering if anyone knew of a source to use for parts. Since the 4.0 has been around for a while I would think there is stuff out...

    Add a leaf being to stiff

    add a leaf Well I would say that it depends on what you are using the truck for. I have had two sets of add-a-leafs in my truck and I have not liked either one. The first set was James Duff and they were stiff and did not add any height. The second are Black Diamond they are stiffer and dont...

    Leaf Springs

    So does anyone know the specs on a set of rear springs for a 1992 4 door X? My truck is in the shop so I dont have access to it. I need to know the leaf count, width, and overall length. Thanks for any help, I am thinking of going with a set of custom springs and they need a starting point...

    Extended brake lines - Explorer pro comp vs james duff??

    I have had a couple of sets of the pro comp and I was and am still not very happy with them. The first set that they sent me leaked! I called 4 Wheel Parts and they sent me another set for free but it was a scary ride home I can tell you!! The second set were ok but from my experience I would...

    Revolver type shackles

    What is going on? Yea, what has happened? I think that we should contact someone else to find out if this is possible. Perhaps Spidertrax or Avalanche or someone? I would love to have something like this and I think it would be easier than a buggy spring. Although that too is an option...

    Any one have a 2" lift for sale??

    I have the entire front kit and I upgraded to the long radius arms as well. I liked the kit gave a better ride and looks. But I wanted/needed bigger. I also went with a straight axle conversion on the front and different axle in the rear. I have not totally decided to take off the rear add a...

    8.8" verses EB 9"

    I have an X with a Dana 44 in the front and a 9" in the back for sheer ease of use and not haveing to purchase more parts for the 8.8 I swaped in the 9". The biggest advantages of the 9" are... one, the parts availability and price, everything under the sun is available for the 9" cheaper than...
