So today I was bored at work and figured I would look up a new battery and get a price on it since we are an Exide dealer. My battery of choice was the Exide "Northstar" Part number PL-AGM65M. It's an AGM battery that's a direct replacement for my Explorer. Gave the boss the part number and...

I feel for you man. "Resident" tags for deer are 40 bucks here and in some areas of the province, you are allowed three tags.

So... as we all know, the probability of finding a good "used" 4.0 OHV engine is becoming scarce as time goes on. Where I am, the OHV engine are rare to say the least...

Hey guys and gals. I'm in the market for some new tires for my Ranger. I have been looking for some time now and have almost made up my mind. I'm looking at the Pro Comp Extreme MT. http://www.procomptire.com/xtrememudterrain.html I was wondering if anyone has used them and if I could get some...

I'm curious... has anyone here ever tried Tera Flex revolving leaf spring shackles on the rear of a Ranger? It looks to me that it would be a great idea to increase articulation in the rear. Any feedback would be great! http://www.quadratec.com/products/16050_103.htm

Just figured since I had many of the "after market" web sites saved to my favorites I would post at least ONE link here for the extream enthusiast. It took me many hours to find this site and after what happened with the server crap, I feel it's only fitting I post it here. Please feel free to...
