Wait, on your 6g Explorer XLT?I align my race cars/trucks, it's just a time thing for me right now. Plus I am about to do rear axles, sway bar, and a few other things. Actually contemplating a Godzilla swap.
yesWait, on your 6g Explorer XLT?
What do you mean replacing axles? These cars have an IRS? Did you mean half-shafts? Even then there’d be no reason to do so. Also, on the Godzilla swap, that’s not something that is going to be easy nor cheap. The fitment alone would be a pain, and getting a tranny to mate to it to fit is going to be even worse. Forget about electronics.
Uh okay. Why are you replacing the half shafts? Not trying to offend you, or say it’s not doable, and I hate being that guy, but it took a really experienced ST owner over 3 years to properly swap in a 10r80 and that transmission was designed to be in a 6g Explorer. A Godzilla swap with a proper transmission is going to be a huge pain, take a long time to get the electronics to work together, and a lot of money into an Explorer XLT.Axles are half shafts..................I own my own business, plus my full time job......I'm pretty sure I can figure it out. I have a 1300 whp mustang....1500 whp ranger. It's what I do.
That’s only the start. As you know, the electrical/computer part is going to be the part that makes it the worst.Motor mounts are the same, I do things that people say can be done
All Ford ECMs are off the "Cooperhead" platform. At worst, I'll use a Holley Terminator X Max. Bone stock Godzilla made 502 hp on the engine dyno using it. And yes we know how to make horsepower here.That’s only the start. As you know, the electrical/computer part is going to be the part that makes it the worst.

Most Explorer's going deep into the 10-second quarter mile aren't using the upgraded half-shafts. The half-shafts are pretty strong, the problem is the boot tearing, and these don't address that.![]()
