Just wondering if anyone has seen/used them on 2nd gen X's? I was checking them out at truckperformance.com because they are on sale. It says you have to do some cutting of the old grill, i wonder how hard these are to install and how they look? One other question, I was reading a thread...

Does anyone know the dimensions of the air filter that comes with the kit? Also, the diameter of the tube? I want to get a second one so that I have one clean and ready to drop in with no down time. I'll probably get a K&N or some other brand just so i can compare them to what came with the MAC...

FYI: I just ordered a Powermaster H.O. alternator from www.truckperformance.com It is a 200amp/125amp@idle heat resitant blackfinish unit with the smaller pulley. Powermaster wanted $499.99 for it when I called them yesterday, and truckperformance.com gave it to me for $369.99 including...

I've been searching for a amp to run my single 12W7 for about a week now. I don't have room for the 1000/1 from JL or that is what I would have got already. I finally decided on a 500/1 since my audio shop has one in stock and it fits perfectly where I want to mount it, but now i'm thinking I...

Ok, as some of you may remember, I've had my mids and highs installed now for over a year and I finally went a got a sub and amp about a month ago. Link to original post with pics Anyway, I added a JL Audio 12W3v2 sub and a JL Audio 300/2 amp. Now the first couple of days I was very...

I'm going to Sears tomorrow morning to get a new battery for my X. I just got off the phone with them and they said they have the yellow top for $169.99 with 10% off if I get there before 10a.m. My question is, will it fit in my 1999 XLT without the mounting kit that I've heard about? and if...

My buddy just got this X from his sister who REALLY neglicts her vehicles. Just to give you an example, we had to rip the rear carpet out of it because it smelled like puke and we couldn't get it to come out. Also, and this is the honest truth, the truck has over 100k miles on it and the oil...

I have been sub-less for over a year now since i started putting my system in. I started out with the intentions of installing a system without a sub because at that time i could not afford EVERYTHING right away so i decided to do the mids and highs right the first time and then when i had the...

I can either get the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo's mounted, balanced, tax included for $498 (from Firestone shop) OR I can get the BFG A/T KO's mounted, balanced, tax included for $460 (from Sam's club) Both are 235/75-15's MY QUESTION IS: Which of these is better in snow? and are...

Hey guys, lately my truck has been acting up and i'm not sure what the problem is. my friend said it could be my fuel pump because i ran my tank completely empty a couple of times and that is bad for the fuel pump. anyway, tell me what you think it could be. every once in a while maybe...

I thought it was about time to contribute to the site and I'm proud to be a member here. Thank you all for putting up with me and my dumb questions. A little bit about myself: My name is Josh and i'm 23 years old. I live just south of Pittsburgh, PA in a town called Washington. I am...

i'm going tomorrow morning for inspection and alignment so i figured tonight would be the best time to lower the front end by adjusting the torsion bolts. After lowering i got all four sides of the truck to sit at 32.5 inches high. that is measuring fromt the ground up to the middle of the...

My X is listed in my sig. I need to know how big of a boat I can tow. I'm looking at maybe buying one, but I want to make sure the X can tow it. Mostly short distances, but it would be nice to take a trip once or twice a year pulling the boat. So far I found one that is 23ft. long with a...

Just thought I would let everyone know that www.truckperformance.com is having a sale right now on suspension parts including the Edelbrock shocks. They are going for $63.89 for 2nd gen explorers. Not much of a discount, but i guess every little bit helps.

how many ft./lbs should i torpue down the lugs on my cobra r rims?

when lowering the front end of my x to get it even one torsion adjust bolt is out alot further than the other....is this normal? thanks.

i thought i would start a new thread on this so the people who are not interested in the group buy could see this and see what they are missing. i just installed my EE rear sway bar, a set of edelbrock shocks, and a Gibson stainless cat-back exhaust. I took everything to my local Mienike who...

thought I would share my defeat. I pulled up next to a new GMC Envoy last night at a two lane stop light. Light turned green and somehow we both took off at the exact same time. We were dead even until my X shifted into 3rd gear than he pulled on me to where his rear bumper was at my front...

Sorry for beating this to death. I've been searching the forums for over 2 hours now and can't find the answers i was hoping to get, even though I remember reading a thread like this about a year ago, i couldn't find it. Anyway, i'm looking for the best stock size replacement tire for my...

i found this article on the internet and thought you all might like to read it. Dead Link Removed

I've decided to cancel my MAC exhaust order and go with the Gibson setup as I don't want a noisy exhaust. I'm not sure which one i'll get whether it be the stainless or aluminized, but that's not my question. My question is that I called Gibson to find out the part number because they have 4...

I was just wondering if anyone with the 5.0 V8 is running the MAC cat-back exhaust from Explorer Express. I think EE calls it the "X-spec" exhaust but it's made by MAC Performance. It's the 3'' pipe with 4'' tip, and the muffler is the two into one style. Can anyone give me feedback on this...

I had my x at the dealer today to have the front end alignment done. I got to talking with the tech and told him about the rear ride height problem i've been having. The back end on one side of my x is lower than the other. He said that it probably was a weak spring since i've been towing...

WOW!!!!! I got all my system installed today, and only took me 15 hours total. What a pain in the ASS! Anyway, the sound is so good it is unbelievable!!!!! The highs and mids are so tight and crisp, yet i can turn it up so loud without distortion it could make your ears bleed. I LOVE IT...

i plan to run the power wire down the drivers side somehow because the battery is on the drivers side and that is the easiest way but what about rca's, and remote wire? i'll be running 2 sets of rca's back to the trunk along with a remote turn on wire. is there enough room under the plastic...
