After much reading and head scratching:scratch:, I have decided I need some help. I am installing two KC driving lights on my 03 X. I would like hook them to my High Beams, but the instructions say this. Most 2000 and later vehicles. If you choose to activate your lights through your...

So I have decided how I want to mount my spare tire. I will be talking to a local welder about making some type mount out of tube steel that will hold my tire in this position. . . . Does anyone have a picture of this area without the carpet? What would be a good idea for how to...

I am mounting a Westin Bull Bar on the front of my X. I am looking for some lights for it. I was going to get 2 HID KC1660. I thought I was getting 2 for my $350. I guess that buys just one. Now I need to find something for that price or less. My explorer has just the standard high/low...

Has any Sports Track owner out there compared their front end to a regular X? I am trying to find out if the front end lift for the sports track will work on the same year regular 4 door. I stopped by the dealership after work today, but the technician was gone. I'll try again tomorrow.

I need an opinion on this matter. I have been experiencing bad vibrations in the steering wheel when driving at highway speeds. I took it to the shop this morning and I was told I had a bad ball joint. This is pretty common on lifted/oversize wheeled vehicle. The technician recommend I...

I received my wheels today. I was a little shocked to see them just sitting there waiting for any passerby to walk off with them.:eek: Anyhow, I opened one box to see how they look. They look great but in my opinion the middle is missing. They are the exact same wheel RoadBully put on his...

I hope I am not repeating another thread, but I didn't turn up much in a search. I would like something that mounts in the vehicle that would mainly be used to navigate the Denver area. I do like exploring the back roads of Colorado and I am starting to think a GPS unit is a must there also...

Now that I am debt free I was thinking about getting a spare that matched my 265/75R16s. I was going to get a used one at that size, and throw it on the spare rim that came with the truck, but the tire salesman told me unless it was almost exactly the same size as the tires on the truck it...

This is just a curiosity, but has any one put the retractable running gear from a Mountaineer on an Explorer? My buddy just bought one and I liked how it retracted. It would be nice to have something that would protect the paint from the rocks that my bigger tires pick up, but also would...

I only have two more weekends left in Colorado. I was thinking of taking Medano Pass road to Sand Dunes National Monument this weekend. Has anyone taken that trail in a mostly stock Explorer? It is rated a 4 out of 10 in the trail guide I have. I have been on a 3 so I am not to worried, but...

I was wondering if I just made a mistake buying my new tires. Has anyone towed anything using 265/75R16 tires on their Explorer? I am looking at moving twice in the next 6 months. Am I going to ruin my new tires by pulling a Uhaul trailer for 12hrs?:mad:

I just though I would show what possessed me to go back to an Explorer even with rising gas prices. I was driving 80 mph on Interstate right after sunset when a deer ran right into the side of the vehicle. I guess there wasn't much left of the deer. I wouldn't know because i was to busy...

I hope I am not repeating a topic but I find the forum search almost useless. Has any one had any luck finding skid plates for a 3rd Gen Explorer? I recently got my first taste of off-roading in Colorado. Boy am I hooked. That very next day I started looking online for lift kits for my...
