Thanks for visiting. This is my 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. She has a V-6 4.0 SOHC 4x2 but she does everything I want her to. She has a brand new 5R55E tranny w/ overdrive, installed by Brinkoeters Transmission. She also has a non-limited slip 8.8 rear 31 spline w/ 3.73s. Every 2500 miles I run Pennzoil 10W-30 w/ a Fram ToughGuard filter to keep her at peak horsepower. Every mod has been done by me, w/ slight help from my dad and of course Brinkoeters w/ the transmission. Please Rate! Feedback and Ideas of Future Mods Welcome!

what type of paint did you use on the trim? and was it just a simple spray over or was there sanding involved?

It Looks Great Those Tires Look Tough On Your Explorer. We Have Been Working On An Offroad Video Titled "Invasion" We Have Been Out Working Hard And Playing Just As Hard. I've Uploaded A Little Sample Of Whats To Come In My Videos Check It Out. Man Those 6" Kc Lights Would Look Good.
