    Sport Trac Equivalents to Flowmaster Force II exhaust?

    I have a Gen1 Sport Trac, and I'm looking for an aftermarket exhaust that sounds similar to the Flowmaster Force II #817491 that I have on my '02 Jeep Wrangler. I've had two Flowmaster systems on the Jeep over 20 years: the Flowmaster HushPower II and the Flowmaster Force II. I preferred the...

    Can we talk "roll bars"? (i.e., sport bars)

    There are older posts on this forum about this topic, but the photos have disappeared. This is apparently a controversial subject due to the Sport Trac bed being composite. I hope to side-step that controversy though. I've been wondering if there were anything out there that was actually...

    What is the deal with my rear bumper cover?

    This rear bumper cover was cracked when I bought the vehicle (03 Sport Trac XLT). I have had this question turning around in my head for months: What went wrong here? I mean, clearly, the bumper cover isn't supported by anything, someone stepped on it or dropped a hitch on it, and it cracked...

    Torch add-a-leaf kit and 3" body lift concerns on 20 year old Sport Trac

    I have a 3" body lift kit and 1-3" suspension lift kit (described below) that I want installed on my 2003 Sport Trac XLT (121k miles, southern vehicle, no rust). The truck needs to have all of the cab mount insulators replaced, as well as new shocks, so I thought this would be the perfect...
