suspension

will a body lift for a 98 - 2000 ford Ranger fit in a 2wd 99 ford explorer???

I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. I just recently bought this explorer a couple days ago and did not notice the squeak while test driving it. I am sure that it is something that can be fixed with some lube or silicone spray but i'm not exactly sure what is making it squeak in the first place...

Does anybody know if the 3rd gen front spindles can be used on a 2nd gen explorer? (both 4x4) The reason I'm asking is that the later ones are aluminum, whereas the 2nd gens are heavy cast iron. I definitely don't do any off-roading, so strength isn't an issue. Mainly, is the geometery...

Hello, I have a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT, AWD. Both of my front sway bar end links have broke. The nut on the top seemed to have popped off as well as the bushings. What I have left is the bottom bushings and a nut. I tried loosening this nut but it keeps turning. I hosed it down with WD-40...

i have been thinking about installing a full size bronco front suspension on my 1992 explorer xlt 4wd. i was wondering if anyone has done this to their explorers or rangers. and if so on the coil buckets and radious arm bracket and arms did anyone use the fabtech mounts or make the bronco/ f150...

I have a '99 Explorer Sport and im wanting to put suspension blocks between the rear axle and leaf springs but the leaf springs are under the axle. Are there any relocation kits i could buy to move the leaf springs on top of the axle?

I just got a 92 2wd at auction. as far as I can tell, this baby was pampered. I am trying to research a few things about it though. Just got out of an old Japanese sub compact car, haven't owned a ford since the ranger in college, and there wasn't a desire to know how to fix anything at that...

I have a 98 5.0 XLT that I noticed quite the lean to the drivers side start about a year ago. I shrugged it off as a tilt in the driveway but finally noticed that it is getting worst. there is now a 2 inch height difference between the top of the front tires to the bottom of the fender. Is there...

Ok, been thinking! How effective is the fifth shock, I cant imagine it does much at all really, Does any one have any experiance of running without it at all? Would a modified mount system handle a full size shock and be more effective, also why is there just one and placed where it is? If...

Hi, I'm new to the Ford Explorer realm... I just bought new Explorer 2008, Eddie bower edition and I'm looking for lift kit (or suspension kit - I really do not know what is the right term) to lift it up for ~ 3-5 inch. I can not find kits fro 2008 in the web. I will appreciate if someone can...

Now my X sits level 38" to the wheel well with 31's

After installing my lift even with a new add a leaf from explorer pro comp my X still was not sitting level so I made my own shackle to level it out.
