    Stock height

    Hello I searched the site and could not find the stock height for a 98 ex. I was hoping that someone could measure from the ground to the top of the wheel well. This way I will have a starting measurement to know if the previous owner adjusted the torsion bar. Thanks a lot.

    New plug wires

    Went to replace the plugs and wires. The old set had all the wires same length on each side(3 wires the exact same size on both sides), but the new ones are all different lengths. Does anyone know where each wire goes? Smallest to longest maybe. Thanks

    Rim question

    Hello, did search and could not find the answer, so I will ask. I picked up a set of rims from a 95 x but the tires on it are 225/70 R15. On my 98 x the tires are 235/75 R15. So the question is are the rims the same size? And if so what should I do with the tires (desert dogs)?

    Just learning

    Hello again; Just trying to learn. When talking about the 2nd generation (95- 01). Does that mean most parts are interchangeable. Are the frames exactly the same? Or what would be the differences? Maybe a big question but would help when looking at used parts. Thanks

    Used explorer check list

    Hello I was wondering if anyone has a list of everything they would do to a explorer that they just purchased used. Like flush rad, transmission, plugs, filters etc. Thanks for any list. I have no records with this x so I do not know how recent anything was done or not done.
