02 Explorer Sport
Recently upgraded to some BSA 304 17 x 8 rims with some Kuhmo Ecsta STX 275/60/17 wheels.

Unfortunately the rims did not fit past my front hubs so I bought some 7/16 spacers. This still isnt enough the dust caps wont let me put on the center caps. So I measure and find out the the front stance is about 5 inches wider than the rear. Does anyone have the factory specs to verify my findings?

bump someone out there has to know
 






bump. Someone throw me a bone. Somewhere should have all the specs.(For an 02 Sport) they are different from the regular 02's. I agree with Ppro in his 02 sport questions thread. I used to be able to get multiple responses and now... nothing.
 






Try the correct forum for your truck. No one with a 3rd gen is gonna have any clue.

Just Go Measure!!!

bump. could someone just go measure their 02 sport and tell me if its different from front to back. thanks
 






Yes, your front track is wider than the rear. That is how most SUVs are. All 1st, 2nd, and probably 3rd gens are like this.

Again, read the above. Check your owner's manual for all those numbers; they're in a diagram towards the back.
