Yeah! Like that ever happens with an Explorer! RIGHT?

Forget about it Just buy a 4runner. More reliable and you will never be embarrassed again.

Don't even start this b.s.

Since you're not going to be a hardcore wheeler, why buy parts like one? Just get enough to get the job done.

I agree with this fully. start with a small lift and real offroad tires. This will make a ton of difference. What gears do you have?

A set of BFG T/A ko's will be $100-$150 per tire

If you are going to be in the mud I'd get mud terrains. BFG atko's have to tight a tread pattern and get clogged up if you aren't really on the gas

something like 98% of them end up there.

Do You Have A Point Here? Or Just Here To Be Annoying?

My point is that even if explorers had all the power of an F-16 they are still unreliable crap that will breakdown and cause major headaches and cost more to keep running than it cost to buy.

Statements like this serve no purpose, and don't belong here. If you don't like Explorer's, great. Just stay off our site.

i agree with mbrooks. we welcome people with any type of vehicle, even jeepers but dont come on to our site to bash us.

Are you kidding me! Your coming to a 95% explorer owner site and bashing us! I can't believe you even find time to do this!

lol i wish i could do the cat noise

ok, go to a scrap yard, get a set of rear leaf springs from a 4dr explorer, or get a set of 2" springs all around. My front skyjacker's ran me 140, and I can clear 33's in a ranger, but you would be quite impresses with just a set of 31's I'm sure. I'd get the class 3 hitch, gives you a good solid tow pont, and a lot safer for pulling a trailer

re: notachevy

hmm...you sound like almostabronco with his 4runner crap...yes, i said crap. if we wanted to know what came stock on the 4runner we'd ask. did we ask? NO...in othyer words, if you dont want to help answer his FORD EXPLORER questions, then keep out of it!

 

[Robb]

hey look, it is almostabronco with a new name........how clever!

 

[udmsvt]

re: robb

yeah, you noticed that too. he popped up in another thread too that almostabronco was plugging the 4runner in.

btw: ya know, j-body.com (a website devoted to the gm j-bodies such as cavalier) actually send your info out to be evaluated for 48 hrs before you can become a member...but here, just about anybody can join.

i.e. add a leafs, spacers, coils, shakles??

 

[udmsvt]

spacers: your local ford dealer or junkyard. they will be from a 97+ f150 2wd
shacles: online, i think www.4wheelparts.com has them for about 53 bucks...Warrior model # WAR-153 try this
AAL: online or local 4x4 shop....try e-bay too. i think you will be looking for the short leafs.try here
