Go with name brand gears. Yukon are one of the best. There is a vendor on EBay ("discountgearing" i think) that I got a quote from for Yukon gears, front and rear, with both master install kits for around $550 for parts only, which is the cheapest I've found. It'll cost you at least another $500...

http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/detail.ex?sku=0127172 These are a little long, but its the closest you'll find and you can always grind them down a little and shorten them (if you bottom them out they will hang down about 3/4" below the torsion bar bracket). I used these exact bolts on...

Sway bar end links or a CV axle getting worn out.

Also take a look at Sharebuilder.com. They have $4 trades and no minimums.

Now I see where my money for the headers/intake/O2s went :D

What is the spring code for the torsion bars? How much shipped to 40047?

Autozone has Duralast brand marine batteries that have blue tops. Not sure if they have an exact fit 65 series but they cost 1/3 as much as a Blue Top Optima would.

Yeah, if you had someone do it for you, it would definately get expensive. If you could do it yourself, you could probably get by for around 2 grand if you used a used engine and didn't rebuild it at all. This isn't including any money you might make back though selling off the old 4.0 and...

I do not plan on doing this swap and I am not asking if it is feasible or whether or not I should do it. I simply want to share this information with everyone: What works in a Ranger, will work in a Sport Trac :D It is far from a bolt on affair, but it is also far from the nightmare...

For those of you that said a 5.0L wouldn't fit without major mods to the frame/fenders/ inner fenders/ etc. http://www.rangerpowersports.com/forum/showthread.php?t=164909 Yes, I know it's a ranger. But a ranger had the exact same front frame/suspension/inner fenders/fireall/radiator...

Richard, The metal inner fender panels and the fender rails (the structural portions under the outer fender skins) are the exact same part numbers on a 4-door V8 and a Sport Trac. Look up that part numbers your self if you don't believe me. The only thing different on a Sport Trac is the...

Richard, I am not by any means trying to start an argument here, I am simply trying to defend my position with the information that I have. If you would like to continue this conversation outside of the forum please shoot me an email and I will gladly discuss it with you. Now, on to my...

But the Explorer Sport front end was the same as a 4 door Explorer front end. No, they never had a V8 Sport, but the front ends are still identical. Everything mounts in the same place and the horns on the frame that the engine mounts bolt to are the same. All the suspension and steering...

Anything is possible with enough money, but you could probably buy an 07 before you could feasibly do this swap. If you want a V8 look for a 96-01 Explorer with the 5.0L. It's actually possible and would be pretty straightforward and easy.

A V8 swap would be very easy actually. You just have to make sure to have the right donor vehicle. ;) In particular, you need a 96-01 4 door Explorer with a 5.0 V8. With this motor, pretty much everything is bolt up. Everything from the back of the cab on a sport trac to the front of the frame...

I'd like to see pictures. I'm not interested in buying it (got one almost identical), but I am interested in how you fit 35s with just a 3" body lift :wacko:

I need an armrest and hinge assembly from a standard series console (armrest flips up so you can get you the soft carry bag). I also need the hardware and bracket that attaches to the floor at the back of the console.

You wouldn't want to sell your rear bumper seperate would ya? It would go along nice with my front bumper :D

150 for all... How much will you take for the sub and box with pick up, no shipping (I live in Mt Washington, 20 minutes from Louisville). Don't need the amp.

Check out www.explorerforum.com . There are several guys that have done an SAS on the front of their 2nd gen Explorers. The front suspensions and frames are exactly the same as our Tracs so all the same information should apply.
