Installing spacers is easy, they just go over the same axle stud the lower coil perch sits on. The spacers IIRC are from 2WD TIB F-150s, not sure exact years or if it's all '80-'96 trucks. You can use some 1-3/8" I.D. washers to raise it up too.

Sorry, been away for a bit. To answer your question, yes, just unplug the battery cable for 10-15 minutes and all should be well. Did you make sure that the MAF sensor itself is calibrated for 19lb injectors that 4.0 ohv engines have, that could also be a problem if not. If you go with the wrong one that will certainly hurt drivability.

Is your caps lock key broken? Just an FYI- All capital letters means you are YELLING! As for the answer to your question, get the axle shafts out of a '97-'06 Wrangler (they have stronger u-joints) or find a one piece inner shaft from a Chrocar and swap out the 2 piece shaft. Throw the vacuum accuator in the trash and build a plate to cover the hole where it once was.

Alignment/Camber Bushings

There is an old thread about those bushings on here. IIRC.. the max for the 4x4 was 2.75, which was the same bushing used on a 2wd that would actually give 3 degrees on the 2wd.. ~Mark EDIT: I found the list of possible bushing sizes.. You can see that you get more adjustment from 2wd vrs 4wd, using the same part from Specialy Products Company Series 2WD Adjust. 4WD Adjust Part # Total Change Total Change 23181 .25 degree (1/4 degree) .20...

That's not too bad of a price. I think i paid about $1000 for the front and $500 for the rear to be done back in '05. They may give you a better price if you bring the front pumpkin and rear axle in by themselves (IE not under the truck) and partially disassembled.

Go hav ea look through the photo albums... you'll find plenty. I think the key for it is to not hang down far enough to block or make approach angles awkward but to also make it out of thick enough metal that it wont' act like tin foil on a rock. As for mounting points I think it depends on your setup, probably from the frame rails do some place past the front suspension near the tranny? Idk. ...

If it is actually cut to fit an explorer tha mor than likly they had custom shafts built for it and if that is true then getting one from ur truk is prolly not gong to. If its from an early bronco 66-77 then maybe its not shortened and u can buy parts from a Bronco supplier. You could be looking at a preety penny for a custom shaft to have a custom built for ur shortenedaxle so dont pay too ...

I suspect you may just need a set of coil spacers to boost the suspension up some for correct wheel alignment (Skyjacker coils are known for coming up a bit short sometimes). These spacer donuts go underneath the lower coil spring seats. A longer drop pitman arm is also available for the steering linkage as well if you need it (Skyjacker pt# FA600). At 4" lift this arm shouldn't be absolutely ...

All you need to do is change the driven gear on the end of the speedo cable. What I found that works the best is to figure out how much bigger the new tire will be. That will tell you what percentage of change you need on your gear. Assuming your 4x4, the speedo cable is held in by one 10mm bolt on the transfer case.. Just pull the cable out, and look at the gear. It will have a # ...

Oil slinger for the bearing or a shim to set the pinion depth. Been too long since I swapped mine out to remember. If it is much larger than the pinion head it is a slinger.
