Default Axle swap complete!!

Well, completed my Explorer disc 8.8 swap and 4.56 gear swap this weekend! Siked as hell! Complete overhaul of front and rear suspension. NOTHING is old other than the beams and leaf springs. Whoring will begin tomorrow. I am pleased to say that 4.56s are PERFECT for 33's and 4 wheel disc brakes are AWSOME!! Longest weekend of my life....23 hrs to install.

Here's a couple pics I snapped half way through the weekend:

^Those are the OLD axles. I installed a different set of beams I had lying around that I rebuilt.
