There ya go, a forum getting too big for its britches again.
Its pretty bad when core members are edited without notification and reason.

What is a forum without its members and posts?

Just an empty site...

Anyways....

Aprils brand new shiny $60 dollar BBK Cold Air Intake came in the mail today.

The rearend is still out of the car and we are waiting for the clutch so the intall video might not be the best quality due to being in the Garage, but I am going to get a video out since my 01' is gone none.

Alex... I just took the old bolt down to the my mechanic and found a bolt that would fit. I believe I used a 1" spacer.

And Im not concered about the lock on the thread, the M112 discussion thread can be used for questions.

So it's time for tires on the Explorer... which is always a bad thing when you're hurting for cash. But I found a set (4) of fairly good 265/60/18s for FREE (gotta love Craigslist).... $10/tire to mount/bal. Not like these where going anywhere anyway...

TEASER! (The front wheel center caps don't fit due to the dust covers... but who really looks that close anyway?)

You could paint the dust covers to make it less obvious...

I might just scrub them a bit... under all the dirt/grease, they are silver.

Here's a size ref shot. On the car 295/35/18 BFG KDW. Same rim for the truck 265/60/18 (roughly a 31") BFG Long Trail.
