So now wer get serious with the lift. I tried explorer struts, they won't fit. I tried explorer springs, turns out they're the same as Taurus springs. Explorer struts would give 1.5" of lift with clearance for larger tires, but I think I'd need explorer control arms and such.Now that it was lifted, and had the tires, I figured it was time to make it more aggressive. I don't like push bars on street cars, but I wanted to try it on this and it turned out way better than I'd ever expected.I also got one of them nifty EPP intakes and painted it with Ford Gray pain, and did the engine cover to match.This is the factory pipe from the intake to the turbos, replaced with independent aluminum tubes with mandrel bends. EPP is the only intake worth doing IMO.So I was trying one of these, and I got run off by a rain storm. When I came back, the ground had eaten my jack stand (the bit of red under the door.) This is when I took a break for a bit, and was actually running two different front suspensions on each side.So I got a quickjack. If you're looking at one, and get it, throw away the rubber blocks it comes with and get some 4x4's instead. Lay them down longways and put pinch weld blocks on those. It fell off 3 times in a row with the rubber ones, they just suck. With the wood it passed the shoulder slam test (which you should always do, if you don't trust it to stay then you shouldn't be under it!)This picture shows how the front had started to sag. Also the horns and Rigid lights. I'm planning to hide the horns at some point.So now we're here. This is with an explorer lift kit up front, which is 2" strut spacers and sway bar extensions. It mostly dropped in, took a bit of opening on the strut holes on the body but was otherwise simple. Ride is back to factory quality, and once I get an alignment it'll be all good.Balanced stance, with no more rake. I think that's everything for now.
