Ryan, your engine bay looks really great!
It makes the little stuff stick out cause its so clean. Just a suggestion, paint the A/C bracket and a/c lines and it would look perfect

And nobody got you headlights for x-mas?

nope. im not loved lol. yeah i plan to. waiting on warmer weather.

Yea deff get some headlights. Looking good.

yeah 6 piece clears is what imma get.

woah man it looks great. really good stance. you likin the sportlines? what did you do in the way of isolators? use the stock ones? are they all there? how much has it settled? you did a mark 7 swap right?

looks real good, keep it up.

edit, your neighbors blue grand cherokee is like identical to mine. down to the pinstripe and all.

[ryan218]

been a while since i updated the thread. anyways new parts are always fun!!!

Explorer upper and lower. being blasted and powder coated right now
Sn95 front brakes.
Ford Motorsports lowering springs. sportlines are nice but just way to low for my driveway and i rufuse to park this on the street every night.

so far the sn95 brakes are on. put them on today and they went on no problem, got my aliment fixed after i sat and looked at it for a hour and had a few drinks and relived some strees. now taking it all back apart pulling the sportlines out then going to get the ford motorsports springs tomm. pretty sure there B springs. not postive though.

pics in a few, uploading.

explorer upper and lower

SN95 brakes. off a 95 GT that was rolled and totaled back in 95 with 9,017 miles on it.

anyways. it needs to be spring. i need to take this car out and break in the new parts with a new burnout and kill whats left of the old rear tires lol.

 

[ryan218]

pulled out the Eibach springs. put in new rear springs. working on the fronts right now. ic ant for the life of me get them in. spring compresser. it was no help. mess with it tomm after im out of class.

Thats too bad that your sportlines ended up being too low. Your car had such a nice stance before... The next thing you will be doing is upgrading to 13" rotors and PBR calipers now that you have the SN95 spindles!

next will be putting the exporer upper and lower on and driving it then getting headlights an enjoying it for a while in the warm weather till winter(end of the year. )

no isolatos in front.
isolators in rear

i think im going to remove the isolators from the rear.

also there is no gas in the tank though. on E. nt surehow muh of a difference a full tank would make.

im not a fan of the rear. give thm chance to settle and go from there

Damn man, car looks really good. Nice job cleaning up the engine.

You should take off that a/c bracket and paint it black. I think youll be very satisfied with how clean itll look.

 

[ryan218]

thanks. and i plan to. still to cold to paint though

interior project.

ive been thinking about doing something like this since my first fox. ( the 83 ) but never really put much thought towards it. then i say it done a few days ago so i went to the junkyard got me a center console section with the cup holders from a new model Exploder. ( it was fubberd in the front end )
anyways. the back is all bondo in. waiting for that to set up then ill put some bondo on the top side. then it will be time to go to work. ( in about 15 mins for me ) then when back from work another some sanding and then a new pic. anyway. teaser pic.

also im doing something different with the cigarette lighter

You don't have a cup holder between the e-brake and passenger seat on your fox?

 

[S&B]

20 bux that thing looks like an elmer glue/ duck tape mess in about 12 hours.

what a luck i have a back up for you for 50 bux you can PM me for my pay pal account tom morning when you see what you've done

 

[fivespeedsteed]

no dude do it right. if you make that work, and successfully put cupholders in there, and it looks clean, you have a business. haha

i wouldnt buy one, i just use the ebrake/seat deal cause i got other stuff to fix than that, but its a great idea.
