As purchased off craigslist for $650. 99 Explorer 5.0 Limited with 135k on it. Transfer case is shot and has some pretty good body damage on passenger rear.
Had a local body shop fix the damage. He gave me a really good deal since they were slow and I paid cash. Also swapped in a BW4406 but this is the only picture I snapped during the process.
Been driving it for a while and decided I should add the coil over conversion kit that I had laying in my shop since I removed it to SaS my 99 Explorer Sport.
I didn't like how much up travel I lost on my sport with the brackets provided in the kit so I decided to do my own version with new upper bracket mounts that are taller.
Factory mounts removed and cleaned up.
Drivers side mount.
I'll try to snap some more pictures tonight of the final setup.
