I have a 93 Explorer and I want to see before and after shots of the budget 2" lift that everyone does.

Actually, I already know what mine looks like so even just a good pic of the results you have would be great.

Cheers,

Skyjacker 2" coils and warrior shackles, but it looks the same as the "budget lift" (spacers and shackles). Oh and 31's.

I really like that push bar you have, where you get it? (I looked at your other pics :) )
 






This is with a 2" Skyjacker lift (coils/Add-A-Leaf) and 31s

It's a really nice brush guard. VERY solid and reasonably priced ($350 shipped).
 






The kit is $180 @ Summitracing.com. Here's a couple of better pics :)

That looks just about right! Are those really 31s you have? Looks like you have room for a larger tire.
 






Here's mine

Chris,

The dark blue was a definite improvement over the original color
 






I think thats the same color just different lighting - that was the color of my old X.
Personally I loved it.

What might that be?
 






Skyjacker, p/n 132EXK
 






Skyjacket Lift

your truck looks great with those 31's and the 2 inch skyjacker, i want mine to sit pretty much how yours does, i am stock right now

killer truck :thumbsup:
 






jcwhitney.com has a body lift I think 3 inches, 96.00
 






is the body lift specific to 1st gen explorers? What do I look for.

For the record I want this setup - its perfect and exactly how I want my X to look. If the owner is looking - please chime in! :)

It is a 2 inch suspension lift and a 3inch body lift.
