If I see anything STX that isn't in terrible shape I'll let you know. :icon_thumby:
It is just on my list of stuff to watch for when I go junking, not a do or die thing. Shipping would probably be terrible for that bulky of stuff.

No doubt on the shipping. If I see something I'll just snap a pic so you can see. :icon_thumby:

The '91 Sport decals would also look really good. The '92 Sport isn't as good looking as the '91s imo.

Looks like someone exploded a deer...

The little bit in front of the front wheel is a interesting touch.

Ah yes. I've seen that one too. A bit too "90's" for me.

I did some googling today and found some part numbers for the STX stripes.

They can be found on this page:
http://www.rearcounter.com/results.php?s=E9TZ-1020000

Here is a list
E9TZ-1020000-AB
E9TZ-1020000-AD
E9TZ-1020000-AP
E9TZ-1020000-AZ
E9TZ-1020000-BB
E9TZ-1020000-BD
E9TZ-1020000-BP
E9TZ-1020000-CB
E9TZ-1020000-CD
E9TZ-1020000-CP
E9TZ-1020000-DB
E9TZ-1020000-DD
E9TZ-1020000-DP

I have been unable to figure out if the part number is for just one side, or if they have both sides, and what colors they are. It looks like the ones we probably want are the CD and CP ones.

The '91-'92 Sports are so rare. I've only ever seen one in person (a 1992).

That color combo is actually really cool. I dig it. I've never seen one of those in person.

Got a new heater core

Skyjacker 136's showed up. Here they are next to the Superlift 5.5 coils and brackets. Also have a FA600 pitman arm.

I'm thinking if I use the 4" holes on my superlift brackets it'll all work nicely.

New shocks. Skyjacker M95. They're supposed to be quite good. M9554 And M9560



New clutch for the 4.0




I should have the 4.0 out of the explorer this week or next week, then it's on to the dash.

My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Nice "Christmas In March" presents.

With even more coming! This week has been crazy busy but next week should be better. I'll get the 4.0 out and dash out and then I can pull everything out of the ranger and do the swap. So much work ahead of me.

I also got some long brake lines in the mail today. I have almost all the parts I need to get this swap and lift done.
