Customizing my 1996 Explorer:
 

I want to add some special parts to my Explorer. Like a custom hood, flared fenders, anything outside of the factory look.
Could you please point me in the right direction for this? Do you have any ideas?
Thanks,
Larry--Ozark

I have had good luck buying from www.jcwhitney.com they have a lot of aftermarket parts for your truck car or whatever, hope it helps...

Thanks
 

Thanks. I just got a JCW catalog in the mail today.

Check any of the forum sponsors??

Here's a random one I clicked on. http://www.truckaddons.com/exterior_accessories.htm

1996 Explorer
 

Thanks. I have my eye on a few things. Now I just have to get my wallet to match my want list.

For some explorer stuff you can go to explorer express. They are not a sponsor here that I know of, but they have some high quality parts. I have one of their rear sway bars to put on mine. Its huge compared to stock.

Thanks Brian. I will check it out. I'll let you know if I find some good stuff.

truck addons tends to be rather expensive and jc whitney is really not that bad in my opinion

I am getting my wish list together now. Just have to figure out what priority to put them in!

Supercharger, gears, transmission........then black out all the shiny stuff and make it a killer sleeper.

Can't wait to see it. I'll bet you guys have some rigs that would knock your socks off!

Cruise Control Buttons on the Steering Wheel
 

Has anyone had the problem with the cruise control buttons on the steering wheel coming loose or wearing out?

Do you know where I could get both sides for my 1996 Explorer? Also, what all is involved in replacing them?
Thanks,
Larry

The right side controls have come lose on my '99 Sport and I'm curious too about any solutions to fix/replace this cluster of 3 controls.

Not me...Those were my suggestions for your rig. :-X06 My lil' F-250 is stock....mostly ;)

Except for....
