This was my daily driver for a while, but engine problems have forced me to move my plans for it up a little. It is currently in the shop getting an Explorer 4.0, EB Dana 44 and 8.8 installed.

Body�
The previous owner had put two coats of primer on her before I got it, so I just sanded her down a little and added two coats of black rustolium to � of the sides and two coats of grey rustolium to the top and � of the sides. Next I went to all the known trouble spots for collecting dirt/mud/salt and filled them in with foam. I then sprayed about � the sides, inside the wheel wells and over all the foamed areas with Wesley�s rubberized undercoating (about a coat and a half on each side). The front grill and bumper was sanded and sprayed with a coat of bedliner. The Grill Guard was welded to the front bumper and the bottom was bent up and also welded to the bumper.

Body plans�
I am going to cut about a �� off each wheel well and install fender flairs on the outside and some 4� lawn edging on the inside. Another coat of the Wesley�s will be put on each side and on the bottom of the body and the frame rails too. The front bumper will have a 2� receiver added too it and tow hooks will be bolted to the frame. I�m going to have a light bar made that will be welded to the rain gutters and be as tight to the roof as possible. I�m also going to have a set of rock sliders made that will run from wheel well to wheel well and double as side steps. The front bumper will eventually be cut out in the middle and a plate added inbetween the frame rails (welded to the frame and to the bumper)for a winch. The cut out section will then be reweled back on to the plate and a hole will be cut for the cable. The license plate will be on a removable plate attached to the roller. I want to add some window vents, hood deflector and possibly a popup sunroof also.

Suspension�
It has a Skyjacker class I 4/6� lift installed right now, set at 6". The stage I is just the front drop brackets, drop pitman arm, rad arm drop brackets, sway bar links front/rear and blocks in the rear. It also has a Rancho steering stabilizer. Currently it has Rancho RS5000s on all corners.

Misc�
Installed bucket seat out of an Explorer. Roll bar made out of a Ranger bed rollbar. Doors have been cut to fit 5 �� speakers. New speaker wire ran though out.
