ive been wishing for it for sometime now

 

[95offroadx]

truck goes into my garage again to get the hood, grille,and wiper cowl so i can paint them flat black and try to get the "tiger stripes" out of the hood

the hood started cracking! not bad but i have a feelin its goin to get worse

why did you need to get your d35 rebuilt? 2wice?

 

[95offroadx]

well the first time when i had my wheel bearing failure and then i got its partily rebuilt(wheel bearings, hubs, ball joints) and i went to get new wheel bearings, and ended up gettin the bearings, along with balljoints, and even axle shafts! i dont think my truck was repaired right from my wheel bearing failure we will see how long this one last

 

[sn0border88]

why did you get axle shafts?

 

[95offroadx]

the teeth where shaved anyway, thus a couple days before i went to the shop my 4x4 didnt work, which i thought it was the t case but it was the shafts

we i got some more pictures

i painted the dark gray on the rear bumpers with black bed liner

now i have to think of a sick paint idea. ohh and i need to get a 2" body lift here shortly, i rub my fenders on flex, and at full flex i rub the rear. so 2" in the front and 1 3/4" in the back

edit: i also need to get some 1" wheel spacers it rubs on the sway bar on turns.

well that might be one of my last pictures of my truck, and notice the marks , well anyways yesterday, my tranny took a turn for the worse, i lost 1st gear and reverse, i could tell the a4ld was getting weak,

 

[95offroadx]

well i got my tranny rebuilt, only because i got a smokin deal! and they promised theyd upgrade it. Well i got it back today and wow it feels lot better.

[95offroadx]

its soon going into the shop for some 4.56 gears! im excited to have some power back! has is right now(33's and 3.73 gears) i managed to clock my 0-60 at 9.77, 9.89, 10.02, i did it 3 times to get a kinda right time but if im right stock explorer to 0-60 at 11 secs. soo im hopeing the 4.56 gears will drop it a second or 2 whatca think

So by increasing tire size about 4 inches over stock and adding 5.5" of lift you lost 1 sec over stock 0-60?



but id be intrested in seeing how much the total gear swap runs ya

 

[lycan91]

im jealous. shes pretty man. i would do a registry on mine but i dont know how to load up pics on here

 

[95offroadx]

the gear swap is costing me 1200.... i really dont know how the 0-60 adds up, 60mph on my speedo is 53mph. though my k/n intake, bbk tb, exhaust didnt seem to do much, the shift kit and torque converter did.

Ouch, my SAS should only be 1400 when its all said and done, including tires, gears, spool, master installs and new brakes, ect.
