Ford Explorer Ford Explorer is a midsize SUV with body-on-frame construction. Available with V6 or V8 power, the Explorer competes against the TrailBlazer, Grand Cherokee, 4Runner, and Pathfinder. Explorer was completely redesigned in 2006 and we were pleased with the new steering, new suspension, and new brakes, all of which were vastly improved over the previous-generation.

Default 1991 Explorer ERV

I have a 1991 Explorer that I use as apart of my local Rescue Unit. It is stock in most cases, has a lot of police accessories though. I have HAM and CB radios as well as police band and aircraft band transmitters and receivers. The car is a white 91 Eddie Bauer with some custom police-style striping that catches everyones eyes. One thing that I am looking for though, is a winch bumper or at least a grill guard. I bought a Manik Guard, but found out it was for 1995-1998 body styles. I want one that mounts to the FRAME, because I plan on using it and don't want to torque my bumper out of shape. The car has 315,000 miles and is in amazing shape, just the way it was when my father drove it off the dealership lot in 1991. So, I liked the Manik guard I had with the rubberized fronts that allowed me to safely push other cars. It had the brush guards which made a nice addition and everything. I do have a limitation on what I can spend, and am very hesitant for anything over $250. So if somebody can direct me to something, that would be great. Thanks!

Seems to me I seen just what you are looking for on eBay and the price was pretty reasonable too. I was looking for a bush guard as I like to go trout fishing back up in the mountains on Vancouer Island.
