- 2003 Explorer XLT 4x4
Recently had mother nature wreck my day. Large tree limb decided to land on my front end driving down the road during a storm.
So I need to pretty much replace e the front clip. I have found a parts truck, same color but XLS instead of XLT but that's no big issue.
Mine is an 03 and what I'd like to know is does the front clip basically bolt together or is it welded? I know you can buy radiator support from rock auto. That end of things looks like it's all welded ect. I've replaced one fender and the fragile stuff up front before from a deer collision.
But I am not sure if back at the firewall and door hinges if that is all bolted or welded. Anyone that may have pulled the front clip before can verify?
