looks good , i liked it when i seen it for sale , would you consider selling that front bumper by chance ?

 

[projectBlack]

no sorry i didnt like it at first but it has grew on me it gives it that off road look seeing its got 8's on it. i was stoked when i got it the whole reason i never had explorer before is i hate automatics and finally found a 5 speed 4wd

Do I understand you are getting rid of your old wheels and they are 16"?

I'm looking to get a second set of wheels for the m/t tires and I want 16s for the tire options.

 

[projectBlack]

i am not sure yet i like them and i would like to keep them as a back up set

went and bought shackles today hopefully get them installed this weekend

If your bolts aren't stuck from rust, doing shackles should take about 15 minutes.

i had the leafs out last weekend doing the soa then switched it back due to rear sitting up too high cant go to the shop til tomorrow night and we got lifts there so thinking it will be easier there thank all yall for the advice this forum is awesome

 

[projectBlack]

is the drop pitman arm off a f150 same on explorer? i got one for a 6 inch lift off a 1991 f150. i was thinking i might wanna keep it if it will fit

 

[jd4242]

Im pretty sure they use the same gear box.

 

[projectBlack]

awesome. so if i get the axle pivot brakets, and do a soa, and bigger coils i would have around 6 inches right?

 

[jd4242]

Depending of spring sag,yea your be close

 

[Bruces expo]

i have 3" body and only 2.5" susp lift but it gave me almost 3" in front , i have auto zone shackles and air shocks in rear , should be the same height as mine if you do 6" up front and soa in rear

 

[projectBlack]

and if i have sag then i could do add a laef right?

bruce'sexpo: i might wait a little while to do my lift, i just bought some 31's and might run them for awhile before i lift hope to post pics of explorer with shackles tomorrow

 

[projectBlack]

shackles installed it looks very close to level now, this was before i re-adjusted the shackles

this is final height for now, just need to find some 15x10's
