nice sport u got there feonix
 






looks good, now it needs some bigger tires...lol
 






Thanks alot guys...


I like her alot too.. My Wife Says i spend to much time with her than spending time with her lol.. I love em Both Yes she needs bigger tires but im kida in a bind. I would like to put 35x12.5x15 on but if i do now i will have to chop up the fenders. I dont really want to do that I want to put the 4inch Lift kit on so i dont have to chop up the fenders. Only a few problems dont have the cash for the kit the gears or the tires. So i guess im going to wait on the 35s or any ida's what i can and should do??


Also can someone fill me in on gears people say i need em when getting bigger tires. Im still new to this so im kida like HUH. Would i need them for 35's and where would they go and are they axles or new tranny or new rear ends.. Thanks for the info really need it..

Really liking the reflective tint. Makes me want to go back and do my middle and front windows like that.

Hey Thanks

I took it to a great tint shop in my town they are great.. Well the explore was all ready factory tinted anyhow did know it would be a problem and i was not going to replace all the windows. So my plan was to make it all 5% all the way around but after running into that problem. It looked way to bad So we tried 15% all way round but front and back 5% and being factory tinted it kinda reflects like a silver tint which makes it kida cool. I like it it though...

update as of 05-18-08


The Front f150 coil seats and the rear shackles are installed now Sorry no pics the only thing i see is that the truck did lift about 1-1/2 inches and pretty much leveled out im guessing. I never measured before i did the shackles and front coil seats. LOL I'm very happy with the sploder.

Hey Guys/Gals NEW ITEM on my SPLODER



Hey its a roof rack and Hitch LOL i took the rack off before i painted it and the sploder looked funnie. LOL so i really needed to throw it back on LOL.

Nice explorer. That thing looks like a lot of fun to wheel. I pretty much have the same setup you do. (3 inch body, shackles & spacers) I just gotta get bigger tires. You'll have to take a look at mine sometime. The link is in my signature!
