$500 score

[kevinsranger]

here is my new 98 explorer xlt, picked it up for $500 with a bad 4405 transfer case, gonna throw my spare 1354e in it to get it going in 2wd for now, then going to get a gem module and switch from a newer ranger to make it work nicely

grill was faded, so i painted the mesh behind it a nice silver and the grill insert black

thanks guys, i have been looking for a while now for a family car instead of packing my kids in the jump seats of my ranger, and since money was tight i was looking for a good truck cheap! i cant even tell you the rats i looked at in that price range, this one was really refreshing to find

I've got a 4405 out of an '01 sport, had about 80k miles on it. All I needed was the engine for my '95. If you want to drive over to Perth Amboy, you can have it for $75.

Great Find and Great Offer from snoranger.

I cannot believe how cheap you got that Ex!!

I love seeing these thread. People scooping up "dead" Explorers dirt cheap and making them new again. LOVE it. Good luck with this, truck looks great.

Nope, no build thread. I didnt take pics when I was doing it. But all the wiring charts are in my computer still. The rest is more or less just bolt in.

I'll find some pics of the '94 and send them to you.

I do plan on pulling the lift off the '94 when I get around to the SAS. Unless you want to SAS the truck, I got 2 EB disc brake D44s and a 79 Fullsize D44, that I plan to cut down to EB width.

Eric- Does $200 really offset the fact that Snookie vacations near you? I think we've got a situation here... :

oh man, this cant be good lol. what brand lift do you have for the ttb on your explorer?

i really want to sas my ranger, but i cant have the downtime while i make custom steering and all that, not to mention the cost lol.

oh man, thats harsh! i am cheap tho! do you have a front bumper for my ex? lol

 

[snoranger]

Skyjacker 6" w/ extended radius arms and superlift superrunner steering. Dont hold your breath, Its gonna be a while before I pull it apart.

You got plenty of downtime now, you got a second truck.
