Update on the exploder, wheels/tires/minor lift
Update on the exploder, wheels/tires/minor lift
First of all these pictures are not up to my normal quality. I am using my sisters nikon and I am trying to work the kinks out on it. She messed up the settings pretty bad so I'm trying to adjust some of them without doing a full reset.
Now onto the explorer. Did brakes/shocks/tbar/shackle lift. Running 31x10.5 BFG AT's on 15x8 nomads. Rear lift is about 1.25" and that front ended up being about 1.5" give or take. Gotta get it in for an alignment monday, but its not too bad. I love the way it turned out. However we did have to do some adjusting to fit the tires/wheels up front. Had to do a little trimming on the back side of the fender flare up front on both sides and we moved the front bumper forward about 1/2-3/4 of an inch and I have plenty of clearance now.

Explorer looks awesome!!
they are not from the 04. he had black w/ polished lip wheels. those are nomads like xpik99 had.
You'll love it man. As much as I loved the blue 4x, I love this truck a lot more. Just fits my needs better. Though just a fair warning if you get a truck with flares and you want to run 31's you will have to do some trimming.
