1997 explorer steering extension

[Phlat Tire]

I have a 1997 Mountaineer 4 door 2wd 5.0 v8 and I'm about to lift the front end 5" and was wondering where I could find a steering extension.. I've been looking everywhere but I can't seem to find one. Can someone please point me to a link where I can get one? That would be GREAT!

Get a stewarding shaft from a ranger they are longer than the explorer ones by 3-4 inches, I did a write up on it.

Thank you so much! I have a couple friends with scrap rangers so maybe one of them will be long enough. If not, there's a pick-a-part about 30 min away XD

Yeah no problem, I found it easier and faster than an extension and you don't add another potential week point.
