Solid axle on a 98? lizardtrac

[Skunk]

OK, project D44 has officially been scratched, instead, I have decided to go with twin d60's, a hell of alot more stronger and more reliable. 6:11 gears are in mind, but these rears are comming with 4:10's in both so thats what im starting out with. Im picking up the rear 60 this week, and the front hopefully next week.

HOLY SH*T!
that's an awesome picture. i think your explorer has more flex then any other X on the board.
your truck has come a long way from when you first joined. it looks great.


if you go to 6.11 gears, i dont think you will be able to drive it to any trails (a trip to paragon would use up a LOT of gas). you're going to need another truck and a trailer to tow it there.

leafs would be much easier and cheaper; but coils would be better for clearance, travel, etc, but more expensive and just a little more difficult to install. All depends on the money! If the money's there, go coils!

Lizard -

Looks like you are running the 4 door leaf pack. Did you remove any springs when you did the SOA? How much lift did you get out of the SOA?

Thanks
