[92 Ford XLT]

what can i do to my 92 explorer to help it off road, for cheep? i would like to get a tube bumber.. anyone know a site that sells them? or how much? also, i was thinking of atleast a 4" lift kit, and 33" tires.

witch should i get first? im only 15, and on a huge budget, beacuse my job doesnt pay much. were is the cheepest place to buy these parts? and could someone give me a ruff estiment?

thanks so much for your help everyone!

why are you going to buy a tub bumper? That won't help you offroad. An easy and cheap lift is a body lift (110) or a shackles and f-150 coil spacers lift (120) In combination you could get 5 inches out of this. Depending on your gear ratio I would say that 33s might not be a good idea because you'd have to regear.

Yeah if your on a huge budget I would hold off on the tube bumper and concentrate more on the lift, you can get a 3" bl for around 150, not sure on the part number on 1 gen, and 33's with stock gearing isn't too bad, I have 33's with 3.73 and its definately slower but nothing that kills me, mabey my off the line time though Oh yeah you could get a 4" suspension lift but thats pricey, around 1200-1500.

ive always heard body lifts are prety pointless? is this true? could you please tell me where you got your body lift, and shackles? and will it help the ground clarance?

thanks agin for your help

BTW, i noticed you are from ST. Charles MO. i have family there

 

[ExplorerSportNu]

Pm sent, yeah bl did nothing for actual tire clearance, but it looks good, where at in st.charles do you have family?

bl's do add tire clearance, it moves the body up so you can fit larger tires in the wheelwells.
