Stealing everything I can use off the Ex!
(Parting-out old Explorer Limited.)
Installed the subwoofer on Saturday, now I got my bass back.
I removed and installed the rear air shocks yesterday. I pulled a main leaf and added one about a foot long and one about two feet long to the main leaf with mounting eyelets. The springs would be a bit too soft, but add 50lbs of air and she rides great! She doesn't kick so bad with the bed empty now, much better.
Now I am motivated to get some softer torsion bars for the front, coil overs are not in the budget yet and this truck has the stiffest "A" springs in it, same as what is under the V8 Ex. Gonna try the pick-n-pull.
Rating at the ground is 2510, 2710 or 2900lbs
Diameter 1.03, 1.06, or 1.09"
Deflection rate in pounds per inch 200, 215, and 235lbs
Spring codes
200 -
215 - "B" code
235 - 1 or A
