HAHAHAHAHA on the older Ex's it's 18mm so it looks like you better just grab all your metric sockets nad wrench's!!

 

[jasonb]

dangit.. oh well.. i think i'll just pull the range from about 13 to 18. i know its in there somewhere. i'll have all the tools with me, i just wanted to keep those two out handy.

Dude on my truck it is a 18mm box wrench and a 18mm 12 point 1/2" drive. Mine is a 88 BII with 93 Explorer sway bars, and a Ranger 8.8 bar in the back so I know you IFS guys are a little different........


I got sick of doing it that way, so I went to the hardware store and made up some clevis pin quick disco's. Last week when I went wheeling I drove to the edge of the trial, got out, unhooked one rear and both fronts in about 5 minutes. Still got a little dirty but no big deal. Worked like a CHAMP!!!

There is nothing "quick" about putting them back in though, especially with 6" of snow on the ground......
