Superlift - will it fit a 1995 (listed from 96 onward)

[JamesB]

Hi all,

I am desperately looking for an affordable suspension lift kit for my 1995 Explorer Sport (4x4). I have found that superlift offers a kit for the 1996-2001 model years. Shouldn't this kit also fit a 1995? Esp. considering that the body style started in 1995 ...

Any help is greatly appreciated!

yes the superlift suspension kit will work, but not because of the body syle. IN 1995 ford changed from i beams to a independent front suspension. the superlift kit is a drop bracket, so the torsion bar and differential will drop down to acheive the lift

there was something strange about that year explorer i cant remember what it was, but it was different from all the other 2nd gens.

Can anybody chime in as to the differences between the 1995 and 1996 models? I'd really like to know why Superlift claims this kit will not work with a 1995 .. but will a 1996 ...
