In order to affix an aftermarket bumper to a vehicle in which a custom bumper is not available for you'll need to measure the length of the bumper and then compare this to the list below for the best fit match.

- Westin Fey Diamondstep Rear Bumper # 65000: 64-1/2"
- Westin Fey Diamondstep Rear Bumper # 63000: 64"
- Westin Fey Diamondstep Rear Bumper # 61000: 61-1/2"

Once you have the best match as far as length goes, you'll need to make up a custom set of brackets or modify the existing in order to make work. There are no custom options for a 2000 Ford Explorer. The Installation Kit for Westin Diamondstep, Surestep and Surestep Deluxe XLT Bumpers part # 92230 which would require modifying would be another option.
