Re: Picked up an 8.8 today. Need a bit of info
where do you live? the questions are good ones so ask away we all learn when you ask. for the drums, you have to go to the backing plate and back off the tensioner. then with a rubber mallet hit the edges all the way around. they are a pain in the ass for sure. as far as the springs, what the hell a...

Re: Picked up an 8.8 today. Need a bit of info
Picked up an 8.8 today from a 93 explorer. It has 3.73's which was the best out of 18 explorers in the yard. Now I have two quick questions. 1.) at the top of the housing, there was an electrical switch attatched. It just unsnapped when I took it off. What is this for? did some explorers come with ...

Re: Few more questions before I tackle my build
i heard also the explorer springs give 2" lift but couldn't tell you for 100%, with the amount you are talking about lifting your truck the pinion angle is not really an issue, 5" or more it comes into play. if you are rewelding the perches on the new axle. i might rotate them about 1/4&qu...
