What is the advantage of the swap? Is it just the truck looks meaner with the wider fenders or or what?

I got a flareside bed which I've wanted since I bought the truck.
It came with the bed! So I got a heck of a deal because I've been wanting one.

Meh, the Truxedo is a much better vinyl cover, in my opinion. I'd even say an Undercover would look great on there. Those things are nice. Probably the only hard bed cover I'd ever go with.

245/75/16 They will be up for sale in the next month. I do believe the newer explorers still have the same bolt pattern.

Meh, I went stepside to fullside on my Ranger. The extra room in the bed was AMAZING.

It doesn't matter what bed you have on a ranger. It's to small. I'm planning on getting a small trailer for hauling stuff around.

Never lol. Though I am considering getting the parts for a 4x4 swap, but sticking with the IFS. Even if I do the swap it wont see much offroading atleast nothing extreme. That's what my exploder is going to be for.
