OG 94 Explorer Build
Re: OG 94 Explorer Build
Put a bumper on it & hit some dirt! I think I want to get some taller coils and build some shackles at the same time.

Pulled those brackets off the aluminum tubing this weekend. I think the bottom plate and cross bars were aluminum, and the rest of the brackets may be SS, so they will be nice to weld to if you modify them, as I assume will be the case. I'll get them boxed up and on their way!

Truck is riding nice & smooth with the new tires. Ride height is low, the truck is really a sleeper, you would never guess there are dual shocks, and radius arms with 1.25" heims under it.

Got my tablet mounted up for all the cool things tablets do. I use Orux Maps for navigation.

Nice! I need to get something for maps in the car. The droid just isn't cutting it. Does that tablet have a GPS receiver?
P.S. How much do you want for the molding? And, now I also need a wheel... tagged one this weekend in Death Valley. Do you still have the stock wheels? What are you doing with them?

Yeah, the tablet has a built in GPS antenna. I have been tossing the molding in the trash honestly. The only thing left is the passenger doors. I sold the stock wheels to a buddy.

Good times in Plaster City. Having 4x4 is so nice. I got into a little 5-6 foot wide dry creek that was just full of soft sand, plowed right through at street psi.
Blew a brake line & the check engine light is on. I haven't pulled the code yet, but the truck is struggling to get over 65 mph.

What are you under in that one pic? It can't be a pier.

Plaster city? I've still never offroaded in that area.
Re: OG 94 Explorer Build
Check engine light turned out to be a dirty MAF, stoked. Swapped out to LED's up front. I also put LED's in the dome/map lights, & door lights. The license plate was flat when it went on!

Re: OG 94 Explorer Build
You and Steve are making me want to build my Explorer when I should actually be working on my Bronco, Crew, F100, and Rambler. I hate you.

This build is perfect! Nothing too crazy but very functional...
