This is something I've been trying to put off for a long time. However the time has come. I must sell my Red Truck :(
Financial reasons, garage space, got kids etc. etc. For many reasons I just can't keep it any more.
I don't have a price yet. No reasonable offer will be turned down. Send a buyer my way and I'll send you $100. Specs on truck at end of post after pictures.

95 Explorer 8.8" limited slip rearend. Torn down to a bare housing and rebuilt with 3.27 gears.

Truck was torn down to a bare shell for paint. It's a very bright red color
much like what they use on the Pontiac grand ams. It's very eye catching.

I'm sure I'm forgetting about a million things.

This truck was built over a course of 5 years and you'll be hard pressed to find another truck as clean as it is.

Your truck is what inspired me to do this project. What will it take to buy?

Hey man I got a question for you about the rearend. The Expo rear end is 3 inches wider then the stock 7.5 correct. Did you have it narrowed or left it alone. If you left it alone what size tire and wheel combo are you running and the offset? Did you have any clearance problems? Im currently swapping my Expo rear end in.

That is a really nice ranger by the way. Id love to have it.

84_302, sorry I don't remember where I got the grill. It's billet aluminum.

Foxracin, stock width 95 Explorer rearend, Cobra R rims (17x9) with the off set for a 95 Stang. I forget what that off set is exactly, 5.95 or something. Tires are 245s but could have been much wider.

How much clearance do you have between the tire and fender lip?

Well what you see pictured above was very tight. About two finger widths. I was afraid that would hit the fenders on any unforeseen bumps and ruin the fenders so I've since raised the rear a small amount. Maybe an inch. It did ride just fine like that but I was careful going in and out of the driveway etc.

Hey man did you sell the truck? Some guy over on Ranger Powersports said he called you but you done sold it. How much did you get out of it if you dont mind me asking? I know you probably didnt get what you had in it. I would have loved to have it if I had the money and lived close.
