This is my new DD, the specs are in my sig. Its staying this way, minus the brush guards, they are already gone but the grill guard is staying. And the grill has been changed to a Gen II bronco/ranger grill, the more open style.

No i didnt like them. I think the guy who we bought it from purchased two of the same side, and didnt realize it, the look the same, and one tube (top/bottom) is angled and it looked goofy so i just took them off.

Its a 4x4 and i hope it works now that i "serviced" the shift motor, if not its getting a new one at some point.

as much as id like to, the first thing to get 33's is my 78, than maybe the 88 if i can clear the room. The Expo is staying stock. well, mostly. jUst nothing radical and hardcore.

Booo, the 1st gen Explorer grille looks 100x better than the Ranger grille IMO. But it's still a nice lookin vehicle.

Besides the more opened squared style bronco grill makes it look more like my 78 F150, which i dig. ALSO.....you can notice the brush guards in this pic, they look like the same one for one side, and not the way they were used....so they got ditched. The bug deflector did as well.
