First thing I had to do was make a table big enough to lay everything out on. It's just a temporary table so I made it out of laminated particle board 3'x8'. I started by tacking the bumper mounts mostly together. Then I cut my 2x2 and slid the mounts on and called it a day. Next I...

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! This year I am thankful that my brother knows a dude that owns a junkyard and gave him a heads up that he just got in an EX with a lift. Turns out it was the old Superlift with leaf springs! He left us go into his yard and get this lift today even being closed...

I ordered everything needed to install Ranger manual lockout hubs on my 98 EX. I already have done the 4406 swap and decided if I'm adding lockouts I want a locker too. If these are the same axle housings as a 98 ranger why does Aussie locker offer a different locker for the Ranger(13530) and...

I have a 98 EX and am thinking hard on doing the 98 Ranger unit bearing, half shaft, locking hub swap. I've been searching the interweb and people seem to dislike the AVM/Rugged Ridge locking hubs and have them break since they have a plastic body from what I've read. Mile Marker makes some...

First off, I did not have time for pictures so sorry. I pulled into my driveway at 4pm just like any other day and hit the garage opener and just pulled right front tire inside enough to get the jack under the jacking hook thing. I turn on my air compressor and jack the right side up and pull...

My 98 will get a SAS ( already have the parts) one of these years but for now I'd like to get some 32'' tires under it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L61YKPM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1AJ31HIXQJ82R Being new to any type of independent suspension my question is do I even...

I was working on my 94 Mustang today and I thought I'd show you guys it's polished Explorer intake. I did this back in 2009 I think and I swore I'd never do another but after looking at these old pictures my EX would look good with one. I made a Plexiglas cover and made vinyl decals...

I got a power moon roof in a pile of parts I bought and do not want it. Anyone near PA need one?

My 98 4 door has always had the problem of the right front and both rear doors will not raise or lower there windows. The ''master'' switch in the drivers door will lock the doors and control all the windows. I can fab, fix, or rebuild about anything but electrical problems just make a fool out...

We are getting a pretty good snow fall for this area anyway, and here is my EX snowed in as of 11am this morning. It's deceiving how much snow we had at 11am. It is a dry light snow and is drifting and blowing around. Halfway between my porch and the EX was up to my crotch. Any more...

Like the title says, my bone stock 98 is finally in the garage for what I'm calling phase one...lol Phase one is mainly just a 4406 swap and some preventative maintenance while I'm under there. Other then the 4406 swap I am installing a new fuel pump and sock in the tank since it will be coming...

I have a 94 Mustang GT with an AODE tranny and it's mount look a lot like an Explorer 5.0 mount but the EX mount looks shorter in height. I was wondering if anyone has looked into using a earlier Mustang mount like 65-73? It looks the same but is shorter then my 94. I can't find any...

My brother (who owns a Toyota junk yard) is a major junk yard junky. He told me he knows where to go to find the BW 4406 and related parts. Well he was right and we found several 4406s with linkage and shifters. image to url The 4406 and front drive shaft came out of a 97 F150 the rear D shaft...

Hi guys, I'm an older gearhead looking for info on what I can do to my 98 Explorer XLT AWD. It will be a daily driver but I won't leave it stock and I'll be looking for SAS and rear axle flip threads for starters. I also want to do a BW4406 swap and will be getting the parts for that as soon...
