A few new pics with the BFG's...

Got the Explorer all shined up nice today, so I figured I'd take a few pics with the new meats. Haven't had a chance to work on the front centercaps, I gotta cut a hole in them so they will fit over the Warn hubs.

Looks nice man. do you have alot of rubbing or is there more room there than it looks. The black truck could be throwing me off though. The suspension lift looks pretty good too. keep up the good work.

With everyday on-road driving, there is no rubbing at all. I haven't had a chance to test it out offroad yet, so I'm not sure if they will rub with some suspension flex or not. Hopefully they won't, but we'll see. Thanks for the compliments.

yeah, sometimes i like those rims, and sometimes i dont (i used to have em too), but i like em on your truck looks good.

*Sigh* Every time I post a new pic or something about the trucks... "I thought you were selling the Explorer?" I'm keeping the Explorer because I can't afford to keep the Ranger. The Explorer is paid for, and I'd be in debt for quite a while if I kept the Ranger instead. So the best choice for me now is to sell the Ranger, though I'd like to keep it.

Thanks Now that I've got it cleaned up good, got the system put back in there, and put the BFG's on there- I prefer to drive it over the Ranger, even with the 3.27 gears. It's a more comfortable vehicle with a smoother ride. Around town the power is ok, but on the highway the gears SUCK. Once I can get some new gears, I'll be completely happy with it. I do however plan to get clear corners (again), tint the front windows, and swap the front buckets out for some 95+ buckets, maybe even the rear seat if I can find one cheap. Just gonna add more comfort items once I get the gears done.
