'93 XLT
Well here is my situation I have a 1993 Explorer XLT, and i'm going to be buying a 3 inch body lift with some 32x11.50x15 Mud Kings. Also later on in about a month once I get the extra money a 2 inch suspension lift. My question is..is there any other way to get maybe another inch or 2 with just little stuff? Thanks for yalls time.

32's with a five inch lift should be fine. i've got 33's and a 4" lift, but i like to keep it low though.
 






Yea that's what i'm thinking, but i'm just looking for more options if possible. Also do you have a picture of your Navajo that you can PM me I would love to see it. Anyone else comment please.
 






search f-150 coil seats and shackles or add a leafs
 












the taller one has 33's and a 4" lift, the shorter one (my dd) has 31's and 1.5" springs in front (stock rear)

sorry i don't have any pictures of it without fender flares :/
 












Damn I can't wait till I get the extra 2 inches on my from the suspension lift. Thanks for the pictures guys yalls rides look sweet.
 






R.J question? What are the width of your 33's? 12.5 or 11.5? Just trying to figure out kind of what mine will look like width wise...so is there any thing else i can do to get maybe another inch after i do the body and suspension lift?
 






they're 33x12.5 on a 8" rim

as far as suspension, you can do either f-150 coil seats or 2" spacer or 1.5" springs in the front. any more then about 1.5-2 inches and then you have to start doing things like drop brackets for the beams and radius arms, or else your alignment will be way out \-/ <-- like that (if you get my little drawing) when you start gettin all that suff then your gettin an actual lift kit. but if you do get a full lift kit, then you can proll do spacers on top of that as far as your alignment lets you.

the rear, shackle, add-a-leaf, double add-a-leaf, new springs, spring over axle conversion (5"of lift or so?)
 






Ok that's nice can't wait to get my mods started i'm definitely pumped haha..thanks for the response man. Also I do understand your picture it's suppose to be the tires on the outside all ####ed up right?
 






I have a 3inch body lift, and a 2 inch skyjacker suspension lift with 32x11.50 Mud kings and it looks like i could have got 33's but its ok.
 






your talking about this lil drawing--> \-/? thats spossed to be the alignment with way to much camber (the tires riding on the outside of the tread. looking at the front of the truck in that little thing). at first i thought you meant the tire on my actual car, but those are fine
 






Yea I understand what you are saying....haha very creative.
