Ryan Alters' 
1998 Ford Explorer Sport
"I'm a big truck guy and liked the look of the '98 explorer. I bought this one with a whopping 2,500 miles on it. Shortly there after I installed a 3 inch body lift, much of which I had to fabricate myself". As you can see that is something Ryan is quite good at. Ryan also built the bumper and the roof rack. When Ryan builds a truck, he likes to keep it simple, clean, and mean. His buddies joke that the bumper and roof rack will last through the next ice age. Maybe they're right!
 

This front bumper is 10 gauge steel which was Rhino Coated. Those are Hellas 500's in the front bumper. With a spot for the winch in the future.
