The first 2 pictures are of my newest BII I just bought for my son. It's got 141,000 miles, 2.9 5 speed with the electric transfer case. It's got Explorer tires & wheels that are 265/75/16 in size. It came with a new rebuilt M50D tranny with a new clutch, pressure plate & throwout bearing along with the slave cylinder & flywheel. I've had to replace the driver's side window motor & lock actuator, cleaned the throttle body & IAC valve as well as replace the valve cover gaskets, thermostat, distributor cap & rotor, plugs, wires, air filter & replaced the oil & filter as well as the front & rear diff oil. Also installed new rotors & pads & rear shoes. Installed a new Alpine CD/mp3 player along with new speakers & tweaters. Also replaced the door striker bushings & lift gate struts. Had the front end aliened & the wheel bearings repacked & checked out. Everything is in great shape NOW & the 2.9 does not have the usual lifter "TICK" that most 2.9s have. I got a great deal on the BII & my son is tickled pink with it.
The other pictures are of "Dad's"(me) 1990 BII that is the same as the first except it is automatic. It only has 76,864 one owner all orginal miles that I found sitting in the woods for over 2 yrs. The paint is faded badly & I have had to spend some money on it but as of now it is in near perfect condition other then the paint which is the next thing to take care of. I even have all the original sales paper, window stickers & owers manual for it too. It is my "BABY" & it runs GREAT!!
Both of these trucks have an appointment when the weather gets warmer to have 4.0 engines installed for more power. PLUS my son is already talking about "wheelin" his so I said go for it AFTER you learn how to drive it. Now you know why I am learning all I can about 4X4 trucks & all that goes with them.
I also have another '90 BII automatic 4X4 as well as a '89 BII 5 speed AND a '92 Explorer my other son drives as well as a '92 Explorer I am stripping out the 4.0 & wiring harness AND a '98 Explorer that I am having a new 5.0 installed as the engine is bad in it now. Just bought a rebuilt 4.0 complete off of craigslist that I picked up with all the paper work to prove when & what all was done to it. Do I like FORD TRUCKS??? damn straight I do & I love this site as I have met a lot of nice people & learned so much from everyone. TRS IS THE BEST!!!
