well what size tires are you currently running?? what are you looking to upgrade too? also do you know the current diff gearing? also, i have a rear sway bar on my truck and i can corner doing atleast 100 and she hugs the road, it wil be your cheepest and best upgrade for traction on cornering. my old ranger didnt have one and it would of rolled doing 100.

215 currently hoping to fit a 245 on these rims then eventually buy bigger rims and run a 285 or so. Current gear is the expo 3.73s with a clutch pack

Beds still on you just can't see it

Trac bars are from the 97 mounty I stole everything else from, but explorers should have the same

Streetracers truck already has the rear swaybar for the explorer axle swap

Also the guy cornering at 100 is from Canada so means about 60 (merica)
