1994 Explorer Limited
Hello from Phoenix, AZ. My name is Greg.

OK I've been snipe'n this site for research, ideas and info for about 2 years now and I have to say thank you all for putt'n this thing together. I know my truck very well now with help and tips from this forum and of course busting some knuk on the sharp bits.

So it's time to participate!

I love this truck!

I'm add'n to the fold my '94 Ex Limited.

You know one of the purple one's. Dark Raspberry they call it. Not a bad color but a little soccer-momish. So that's gotta go!

Got it from the original owner with 108k very well maintained miles, absolutely free of rust. If not for the front leather the interior is 10 of 10. Date of purchase Sept 2010. Everything in working order and I do mean everything including the beauty lights on the sun-visor mirrors!

This limited is only missing one option, which is the power lift gate. Yes they offered that for a mere $2,700 pushing the sticker to $32,840! That's gonna be rare! The power sun roof is more of a choice rather an option in that all Limited ed's come with either the tilt up or the slider, mine has the tilt up.
OH, if anyone ever see's a factory first gen power lift gate PM me, even if it's busted up junk yard! got'a have that right?

I Plan to post up a build thread for project "KITRINOS" that's Greek for "Yellow" Simple yes? But better practice with forum tech here first.

OK so first post first pics.

Here she is Day of purchase. This is not a photo of my Ex but it's just a reminder of stock and approximate condition minus the rust. I don't have a day one pic, bummer!

Have not been taking progress photos as I went so far.

Here she is intermediate, cleaned up no lift just the Alcoa's and streety BFG 30x10 long trails.

And where she is today with 2" susp. lift and BFG KMII and a whole host of mods but I'll save those for the appropriate build forum.

Again, thanks for all. Hope to get some trail rides put together and hope to see you on the Dirt!
 






I live in Phoenix too. Let me know if you ever want to go for an offroading adventure or even if you just need help working on your X. I have a 1994 Limited in green with a 5.5" lift on 33x1250 tires.
