I haven't updated in a while so here is what I have done since the front clip swap. I repainted the front to match the rear. I got My 34x10.50x15 LTB's they are so much better than the AT's. Last month I went on a couple wheeling trips before the new tires but my tranny has been acting up so I decided to put a rush on the 4.0 swap so I wouldn't miss to many more trips. I have spent the last 2 weekends in the junkyard gathering parts for the swap. Last weekend I manage to pick up a 1354 manual tcase for $100 and this week I pulled a M5od come to find out the input shaft was broke so I went back the next day and pulled a FM146 all I need now is a clutch and I will be set. I would have ordered the clutch last night but I came across a great deal on all craftsman tools $200 got me a new looking 30gallon air compressor, 1/2"impact, 1/2" air ratchet, 3/8" air ratchet, die grinder, blow off tool, 25 foot of hose. These tools are a couple of years old but look brand new. So I figured it would help with the swap and all other work I do on my truck and everyone elses truck
Oh yeah I also picked up a 1995 explorer rear axle disc to disc for $60 pulled and it is 3.73 L/S just like mine so I am gonna install this while I am doing the rest
