Looks good, now all you need is some tires.
 






what kind of brush guard is that? have any pics of the front?
 






What shackle did you use?
 






pretty nice. Are you talking about the f150 spring mounts? They should have givin 2" lift.
 






also nice x! That green is the best color for em don't you think?

Though yours seems in better condition than mine. I have some rust just in front of each rear wheel I'm gonna have to deal with. And some dirty rotten cowardly son of a piece a crap keyed the passenger side before I got it. all the way from the front corner reflector to above the rear wheel. Makes me angry every time I see it.
 






I can post pics of the guard tonight... It was from JC Whitney.

The shackles were from ebay. They were very sturdy and that was what caught my eye.

The spring spacers are from an F-150 and you're right it was almost 2" they are pretty tall spacers. They worked really well and there were no issues installing them.
 






I took the skirts off and found rust on the passenger side front and rear. I just decided to scuff it and put some undercoating on it. I didn't want to invest the money in repairing it.

That sucks somebody keyed your Explorer. That happened to a car I used to own.. They took it down to the primer from the front to the rear.
 






yeah took mine to the primer as well and those pens from autozone don't cut it sooner or later in gonna build a paint booth out of PVC pipe and plastic sheetig and repaint the whole car but thats gonna take a few weeks off of work and some equipmet investment.

I like the green it is now but I may repaint a different color.
 






I think it was a chick who owned my car last cause the interior was keptin very good condition. No marks on the headliner or anything.

I think she must have pissed off another chick or somethin.
Cause I don't know what kind of Dude keys a car!

No offense to any female explorers but keying is just WRONG.
