Hey Brian! Hope all is well with you. Yeah,real long time no see. I had to go up to an Expy to haul my 6,500lb boat/trailer; the little Explorer just couldn't haul the thing well enough.
Ashli has made clear this one won't get built up like the Explorer. A 3/2 lift is too much and will probably look silly with stock size tires. I do plan to take the rake out and lift the front to match the rear. It has 1"~1.5" of rake and I can find 2" front lifts; I'd like to lift the rear 1" with a 2" front to level it out.
