    I dropped the fuel tank on my 2011 XLT 2WD and I do not see a fuel filter anywhere. Where would it be?

    Sounds about right, I went by some instructions and bought a fuel filter for my 2009 Expy... went down there to change it and the dang thing wasn't there. Had a Gator L too for a while (2011? 2012? something like that) and it didn't have one either. People are lazy and just write crap in...

    Convert 2nd row bench to captains chair's

    You don't need a bench, you just need to buy the second row middle seat from a modder who removed his or a salvage yard and to disconnect the armrests if you have them Otherwise, the seats are identical The middle seat mounts with just several bolts, the body holes should exist already. Just...

    Sleeping/storage platform for 3rd Gen Expedition

    2nd and 3rd rows fold absolutely flat unless you have captain chairs or a middle console (if so, swap to 8 seater configuration). Just toss an air mattress over it and you should be fine unless you're like 7ft tall. Get a roof rack or one of those luggage box things for stowing your stuff on...

    Fox 2.0 Coilovers and BDS UCAs finally installed!!!

    The front suspension *should* just be standard F150 spec iirc. I forget which years work though.

    2007 Cyl 3 misfire

    #3? Check for a small coolant leak from around the T. It gets into the coil and injector wells that are perfectly positioned for that to happen. And coolant *never* evaporates so it just sits there until it seeps in and screws up the coil and/or injector.

    Starts fine! Then runs rough until choke goes to idle

    Dirty throttle body or recent battery replacement/full discharge? That loses throttle "learn" settings.

    Real world MPG results

    15-16 hwy, 11-14 city Slightly lifted, 33's with highway Michelins, regular length, 4wd, 190k mi Try to run E85 if you can find it, at some point it was >$3 less per gallon around here. Makes all the difference. And imho the Flexfuel 5.4 runs better on E85 than gas.

    Low idle 2012 Expedition 5.4L

    Probably a real issue since you had stuff wrenched on under the hood, but be aware that the tachometer is mechanical and non-calibrating. It *may* give you a perpetually-off reading (mine reads about -300 from reality). Check with a bluetooth OBD reader for real RPMs.

    Rear Shock Recommendations for 2013 Expedition?

    I used to have a truck on Monroes (Navigator L = mechanically identical to Expedition EL) and it rode a lot smoother than Expedition on Motorcraft or Rancho... some of it might have been the L/EL thing, but the difference was pretty huge

    08 Expedition- best scan tool?

    Useless, there's nothing additional to scan Just buy $12 ELM327 and use an android phone

    Misfire code cylinder #7..new coil and plug still misfiring

    Probably the injector. They're like 30 bucks and take just several minutes to swap in your driveway, easier to try first.

    Interior/Exterior LEDs

    Fits front and midrow interior lights, license plates, top light over rear glass too iirc. Bright & lasts. Technically fits side marker lights on headlamps, but dies in that position for some reason in my experience.

    Rear Shock Recommendations for 2013 Expedition?

    Monroe ride best Unreplaced stock shocks on trucks more than several years old are GUARANTEED to be screwed if you have ride issues.

    2012 police vehicle 4x4 295/70r17

    295 / 25.4 * (2 * 0.7) = 16.26 16.26 + 17 = 33.26" 33's should fit fine unless your shocks are totally trashed. 295's are very wide and might rub liner at extremes of full lock
