I am building another explorer.Just to prove that you can run 12" wide wheels on a dana 35 with 38 inch tires and not kill the wheel bearings and to prove you can daily drive it without turning it over in a curve at regular speeds.This one will be used for mall crawling only.No offroading just street driving.I am doing to different stages.The first is a 6" skyjacker classII lift with a 4" body lift.For tires I will be running 38.5 17.5 15 monster mudders on 15x12 589's.With 5.13's for gears.The second stage at the end of the summer will front and rear dana 60's.And 44 inch tires.Now to the pictures,here is the explorer with leather enterior.Auto for now but 5 speed swap coming soon.
Here is the lift back from the powder coating.
Then the body lift blocks cut on a lathe there UHMW and the shifter ext.Next to a 3 inch ext.i oreder the bolts 12mm 1.75 at the local fastener supply there grade 8.No pictures of them everyone knows what bolts look like.
