So been shooting Raptor liner on all kinds of metal and and love it. Quick and easy looks great.......So now I'm looking to step out and do some plastic. To be more specific, fender flares and some trim pieces all exterior. I've been doing some reading on the "process" and have read mixed...

Blah blah blah Tim

Short version of the story, my idle was way up like 500 plus RPM's today. It's kind of been creeping up over the past few months. Found some rubber vacuum caps had cracked (those things are JUNK) so replaced them with some vinyl vacuum caps I had from another project. Think there is another 1...

On a previous thread you guys convinced me to Raptor Liner was the way to go. Well the time has come. I plan to spray this weekend and I'm doing the prep work now. Full disclosure I'm doing my Samurai this weekend before I do the bed of the Bronco. Like to get the mistakes over and done with...

Looking to get you guys input on this. I've used Herculiner in the past some 15 years ago on my Bronco. The inside held up good but the outside has all but gone away. Is there anything out there better now? Back then there was no UV protection available so I'm sure that was a huge factor in...

Last stop on the FedEx route.....thought they would never get here. Guess I'm going to the tire shop at lunch.... Tim

I'm kind of in the middle of upgrading to new rims (already bought) and tires (plan to buy next month) and I may need to run 1/4 inch wheel spacers up front. I don't think I need to (I've already test fit the rims) but 1/4 inch spacers will widen things just a bit. I've done some reading and...

What's everyone's thought on this? I'm in the process of upgrading my rims and tires. Rims are Method NV's 17 inch with 4.5 backspacing and tires are LT285/70R17's Looking at Mastercraft Courser MXT So my current stock rear tire carrier is not going to get the job done. I've gotten by over...

Well I've been putting it off for months hell over a year but the time has come for new tires. One blew out on my Wednesday. Currently running 265/75/16's So I'm considering Method NV wheels in a 17 inch. Planning on running 33's (285/70/17) If you have method NV's on your rig, Please...

Sorry long..... 351W GT40 upper and lower intakes GT40P heads SN95 EFI with 96 Explorer MAS, TPS and IAC Issue just started a few weeks ago and is getting worse. The rig was running great with no issues. I stopped to get gas and when I restarted the engine, the idle surged to 1500 and then...

Starting the next phase of my so called build. Looking to order Method NV's in matte black. It appears they do NOT come with lug nuts and it appears Method doesn't sell lug nuts. Can't find them in their catalog. I also don't see where method has any special and ore recommended lugs to use...

Anyone running these? Looked at a set today LT285/70R17 33 inch tire and they looked good. Price was $60 lower than any other tire the shop offered. Got a quote for $200 each but found Wal Mart had them for $168 each. That's a hard price to pass up..... Just looking for some feedback on...

Did some searching but only found info in the rear uncut fenders. I just finished up my project of replacing my cut front fenders with stock replacements. Spent about 8 hours on each getting them fitting with the original doors and grill but that's a different thread. Spoiler alert, they came...

Just a heads up......Blue Oval Industries? Box has a blue oval and in the ovals has printed "Oval Industries" in it. I ordered a left side fender some months back and the fit was good overall. Just needed some minor tweaking as you would expect. SO I ordered a right side fender expecting the...

Reading and getting a lot of different opinions on this. What do you guys do? I bought a set of Elgin lifters and they came with no instructions. Read on the Comp sight to clean and drop them in while on other sites it talked about soaking them in oil for a week? How about cleaning? Do I...

Got my new Comp cam in and it came with two pins. One long and one short. Long is used when a fuel pump actuator is needed and the short one is for EFI. My question is, with my stock Explorer/Truck cam, the pin is press fit. On the new Comp cam, it's not. I can easily slide either pin in...

So everyone knows by now the issues with my 351W build. If not, long story short cracked E7 head. It's FUBAR Looking to go with some GT40P heads as I already have headers (Bronco Hut shorties) that will work with P heads. So my questions are around the rebuild and swapping them onto my 351W...
