LOWERING MY 91 EXPLORER 4X4?

[Yomie]

Ah Blah Blah Blah, I have a 4X4 explorer with a 3" drop. I have yet to have problems with any of my 4X4 components my alignment is perfect and Yes my 4X4 still works!

yea you had it fairly easy.....Torsoin twist the front, anyway, do you have any picks. I want to se how 255/60's look with that drop

I dont have any pics with the curent set up and my truck is in the shop right now. I did the tortion twist up frony, but my A-arm was sitting on the bump stop, so we put a shorter bumpstop up front. in the rear when i would hit a good sized bump the axle would hit the frame, so the truck is in the shop right now getting a C-notch (were only cutting about 2.5" outta the frame and reinforcing it) and shorter bumpstops. It doesn't look bad right now with the tires, but the 255/60's are temporary. I have chosen two sets of rims that need to be decided on, one is the 18" 2001 Cobra R, and the other is the 20" Arelli Bling-Bling's

i wanted to put wires on my explorer too but because of the front rotors on the 4x4 they won't fit. you might be able to get some adapter plates but im not too sure if that will work. anyone else ever put wire wheels on there 91-94 4x4?

Yomie...getting a C section done on the frame, is that bad? cause i was considering it because i have the same problem..it just seemed bad for the frame. i was quoted like 500

BigBoy11....I had a set of 20" wire knock-offs on my truck for a while, if you go with the knock-offs they should fit

oops sory i have a '97

ID92....Getting a c notch isn't good, but it's not bad either, you just have to get the fram reinforced. All these little pick-ups running around laying frame, or on bags all have a c-notch in the frame. None of my friends have ever had problems with theirs, so i'm getting it done
