[explorer ak]

hey guys sorda a newbie ive been off roading my explorer for a year now with the usual TT and shackel lift sitten on 31's, with the rear swaybar removed.

im in the proceces of getting a 3inch body lift and getting new shocks and going to make the jump to 33's or 35's depending if i wana do any trimming. i am wondering what shocks i should go with. and what gears i should be running for i dont trash my tranny. also looking for other mod ideas to make my x that much better in the woods

thanks man great tire size chart. do you have any in puts in what gears i should be running or if i even need to change them

It depends on what gears you have right now. Some people change and others dont. I think people usually run 4.56 gears with 33 inch tires.

You can get away with 4.10's on 33's but it will perform much better with 4.56's.
