Thread: 93 4x4 Explorer

yeah it definitlely is not gonna move. i tried pulling on it, and nothing. solid as a rock

Your rear leaves are a slut. Thats like the 4th explorer they have been on haha.

When are the coilovers coming???!!

ahah about to make it the 5th. gonna throw them on my new explorer, and sell all the aftermarket stuff of it. make it stock and build the new one with coilovers

Looks sick

looks good, what front glass is that?

Thanks man, its hanneman

putting chrome rims on it tomorrow, cleaning it up and threw some big clean dezert stickers on the door, thanks adam. gonna wash, and detail the car and do a few little things i have been wanting to finish for a while.

Looks really clean in that pic... Was the side skirts on it when we did the light rack ? I don't rember seeing them or not lol

they have always been on haha, im gonna take them off though cause it makes my glass look like its shorter or broken

dude im so glad i did that light bar that way.. i love it.

Haha shows how much I pay attention to the little details haha I was thing the same thing about the glass looking shorter or broken haha but didn't want to bag on your g-ride... Haha

i love the way it looks too, way better than adams

Haha.. REAL FUNNY DICK!!!!! lol jkjk what springs do u have on the other exploder stock? (the black one) btw

in the rear its just stock ones, the front is generic lift coils. im gonna be selling that one real soon here

Selling what? The springs and what not?

nah the whole vehicle, the sole purpose of buying it was because i already have the hookup for the wheel tubs, and entire interior. i think i can get three times what i paid

Saw you guys turning left onto Plano Trabuco when you went up SB the other day. Expo looks way good man. Side note, but I read you guys were going up so I left about 30 minutes after I saw you and blasted up the mountain on my KTM but didnt see you at all. Hit me up when you go up the mountain, I live up the hill off the last right you can make before dropping in the canyon.

alright guys, looking at my car what would you reccommend i change to change its appearance and make it look a little nicer? monday i was planning on sanding and repainting my front glass and removing body trim. Im gonna try and throw the new mtrs on it aswell. what else would you recommend?

Well seeing how it's a ford maybe put it all on a ranger !!!! Haha jk jk bring it to my brothers house to build your tire racks haha

i know haha i wanna do that real bad

Could but my bender is going bye bye.. The buyer will be here Friday didn't wanna get rid of it but I need the money more.

I'll buy another one here shorthy after my Toyota is done and stable.

looks good man keep it up

thanks man, bump had steve(jbweldfan) kick my side skirts off ahaha and also got the new mtrs mounted, pics tomorrow. also gonna sand and repaint my bumper. i was thinking a hammered grey color, or should i stick with black? same with skid plate, paint it or leave it aluminum?

Hammered grey would look good IMO.and leave the skid plate aluminum... Looks cleaner

i need a new front bumper just realized it today, its cracking, and bent from an accidental nerf.
anyone looking to build one cheap? also got my subs and speakers set up perfectly. new alpine headunit. painted grille black, and mounted my lights to the glass so its not all hagard looking. also looked and noticed my coils popping out of the coilbucket, so i fixed that aswell.

come down to the shop, ill build u a bumper

how much?

pm sent

so my coil keeps trying to pop out of the coilbucket, atleast one part makes its way out, then makes it pop and squeak cause its forcing its way either in or out. if i weld a tab on the outside of the coilbucket to keep it in, think it will work?

do you have a J clip to hold it in?

no, originally one broke off, so i welded something on there to get it home, then after btf did the work they were not there. i was thinking also, doing the j clip with a bolt through it into the coilbucket so i can still get the coil in and out

If I really forgot/lost them, I feel like an idiot...call me or come over if you have time and I will do something about it

Im not sure if your running stock or custom buckets, but most J clips are bolt in when you put larger springs on. They are a pain in the ass sometimes but needed for sure. Did a quick google search and this is what i found for a stock bucket J clip with modified suspension



and my old explorers set up with camburg buckets.

You need that clip for sure, and thats pretty rad that Brandon is following up on that. Limit straps will help out too if you dont have any yet.

yeah thanks alot for that brandon i will let you know. originally they came with these weird jclip, and i welded one on that looked like the one you posted jerrod. and i have limit straps happy, but they still try poppin out

Cool, then yea that clip is probably your issue, as the others said.
