That's what i'm talking about ... before i became an Xtreme fanatic i drove a pontiac sunfire. all the lights on the dash, gauges... everything was bright red... at night it looked sick but it didnt drive your eyes nuts... which makes sense... military wise we use red lights during night...

Just wondering Well I haven't posted lately since i'm in Afghanistan but my mod bug is gonna hit hard when I get home. Considering I'm working a style for my X, I have yet to find a way to make my whole gage glow red. I dont want any blue or green or any other color. Any suggestions from the...

shocks Fellas, I have been pushing these shocks for awhile, they are top notch, used by by both NASCAR, stock and truck serries. Most all of them are adjustable and they have both chrome and red threaded bodies. Just check em out and the prices are very reasonable. QA1 Shocks...

4.0 Ohv GT... From what I have discoverd your best option is to get after market cats, primary and secondary to leave your exhaust in stock style fashion and simply use a 40-50 serries flowmaster or magnaflow to get the sound. From my understanding if you put straight pipes on a 4.0 ohv it may...

Figured something out ... Sending this to the top If are having these sorts of problems, check your solenoid the nuts on the wires going into your ignition solenoid could be loose. Just grab a 14mm wrench and tighten it. Dont tighten it to tight be cause parts of it are plastica and could...

hmmmm I have been researching but nothing is showing up for swappin my X axel for anything else or at least i havent found anything. I was thinking about different wheels and wider tires in the rear, but that would be a pain in the ass when it comes to rotations. I have been calling around...

ok here we go... round two to send this back to the top... I know some of ya'll dont like spacers but for what i want it seems like the only way. So I have some links for some spacers... any feed back on the ones ya'll think are the best please let me know. spacers 1 spacers 2...

ok so i hear Ok ... so what about this as quick fix... I hear that wheel spacers are bad .. but would they work well enough to elivate some of the problem... 2" wheel spacers on either side in the rear would cut the difference in the front and back down a little ... or even 1" spacer with a...

thanks for the info Thanks Guys, Ok good info. I guess what I'am trying to say is I want a solid rear axel that is a total of 8" wider to match the widened front end. Yet I also want to be able to have it already geared to 4.56, as well as have the regular 5x4.5 lug nut patern so I can put...

My question is this ... does anyone know the "track" or the width of the rear axel on a 97 expedition? The reason I ask. Well, getting deployed again and I'm gonna save up the money to get a Dixon Brother's fron suspension for my 95XLT 4X4. In doing some reading and research when doing so it...

thanks thanks for the info... what would you estimate the cost to repair the bad connection in the column or if i had to rewire or something and replace the ignition switch (yes where i put my key) since it is starting to get some real "play" in it... would this be something that pulls a code...

ok similar issue Ok 95 xlt.... try and crank and the electronic parts lights everything comes on ... the lights on the dash all come on... but it's like i gotta juggle the ignition switch to get it to actually crank... any ideas thoughts what this could possibly be. my buddy says cause i...

how bout this this only cost me about 45 bucks on line ... took some cutting easy with a dremel tool or a small hand hacksaw... course i added some extra time and paint to my grille too http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=187960

now fred are you saying that you can use the 4.30 ford 8.8 gears that are for a mustang on the X's 8.8 i thought i saw somewhere that they make 4.33 gears... am i wrong or was i seeing things...????

hmm what about these.... Any one see these. Ya'll think that these headers would work on my 95xlt, 4.0L OHV? http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=PSM%2D70%2D1170&N=700+4294908331+400091+4294839915+4294907830+115&autoview=sku

sizes Ok here is the website for QA1 shocks though, if you get them through the company they charge $200 per shock without the coil over mounts and stuff... you're better off going through a distributer. As you can see from their website in the PDF file they have 1 5/8'' shock 2.0, and 2.5...

Do I go unheard... I asked about QA1 shocks back on page 7 or 8 or something like that but no one ever responded to my interests. However I did some research and I did find this. QA1 is a prime supplier of shocks for NASCAR and NASCAR truck serries. I havent done my conversion yet but I...

31's ok, here is the link to my thread with my 31x10.5's... of course I have a TT and added warrior shackles (available at www.jackit.com yet I'm sure you can find them other places) and I had replaced my rear leaf springs with new ones from JCWhittney.

new pads Bendex... very low dust and a free set next time when you buy one set

bosch vs motorcraft Although you can run Bosch from my experience which is limited outside of my own X.... I have had ok performance from Bosch. Bosch are pretty much used primarily for foreign cars. The Motorcraft ones I have now work like a champ. I wont ever use any other kind in my X...

Oh I forgot.... One of the nice aspects of the QA1 shocks is that they can be mounted upside down... this is nice because the coilsprings would interfere at all with the CV's.... just FYI

Shock option Well fellas, As I had mentioned before, I was looking for a quality and dependable shock to do the coilover conversion and I think I found it. QA1 shocks are the answer for a stylish red chrome full threaded body and the coilover kit will cost me about $175 bucks... thats for...

I know my 95xlt is a gen2 vehicle as is all the way up to 2001 X's... just making sure on this one though... would taillights for a 98-01 X fit my 95XLT ? any opinions welcome

shocks Thats ok AMMO i know they dont come with the springs.... leaves me open to get the ones i want... im thinking 14" 800pounders....hopefully RED to go with the motif of my X... but just checking to see if anyone had heard anything about QA1.... i realize they are shorter collapsed but...

Ok ... money is in? Ok fellas the money came in and work is in progress with body lift new black wheels and all that jazz. Lucky for me i live near a summit racing super store... almost had an ****** walking around that place. Found some coil over shocks in there from QA1. Part number...
