    Dial Shifter - Let Me Vent!

    I like the setup in my 2023 F-150 STX. It’s got the column shifter and a full center console. The STX is a rather basic trim, I optioned the center console, locking axle, and 5.0. It’s one of the hacks of this trim, yes the center console is an upcharge….but you can get it and it keeps the...

    rear differential locked

    Not a surprise given a true locker does not excel on pavement, it is really for when you have severe axle articulation etc. Ford probably figures the use case of the F-150 (being on job sites etc) needs a “go or no” condition vs the in between. To be honest the Expedition is just better in snow...

    What to do??

    Ford really screwed the pooch on the King Ranch Expedition getting rid of the two tone paint. Can that even be called a King Ranch? Lol. My vote is the stealth

    Thinking of supercharging the 5.4 2v

    I’m not saying he can push 800 HP out of a 5.4, my only point was hyper pistons hold up just fine to boost. Both the 3.5 EcoBoost and 5.0 V8 run hyper pistons in their stock form. If he keeps boost in the tolerable range, the engine will live a good life on high octane fuel.

    Thinking of supercharging the 5.4 2v

    Hyper pistons are fine, people get 1000 HP out of stock 3rd and 4th gen 5.0L Coyotes on stock internals reliably. I’m putting a Whipple on my 2023 F-150 5.0L V8 in May and I’ll be running in the 750 horsepower range. This guy has the gen 3 Whipple on his, putting 855 HP down at the wheel. Stock...

    Rocker panel rot - leak source?

    Both my 2007’s rotted out at the rockers

    rear differential locked

    I am curious if Ford could do a pin system on the Expy? Perhaps maybe even a Torsen rear may be a better solution? There are obvious differences in axle tubes vs CV axles, but they run a Torsen front end to lock the Tremors. I am sure glad I optioned the locker, in May I am installing a stage 2...

    rear differential locked

    The issue with the Expedition is that they are really calling an LSD a “locker”. The locker in my F-150 operates off an electromagnetic ball ramp mechanism that pushes several (10) locking pin bars into matching holes on the back of the side gear housing, which locks the axle. Very robust (and...

    Hybrids Confirmed

    Hoping they expand it. Many of us on the F-150 14th gen forum have been begging Ford to make a hybrid version on the 5.0 V8 but they don’t seem to want to. It would be the perfect towing machine. The 5.0 is great on gas when towing, and the electric supplementation would add sufficient low end...

    2009 Expedition EL 5.4 wont crank and cant shift out of park

    Try and shake the ignition key in the cylinder when you turn it over. Very common for the switch to get faulty at this age.

    Not all 10R80 CDF drums are created equal.

    Didn’t Ford add a new nibbed version so it cannot shift anymore?

    Need opinions on 2014 and 2015

    Both engines have very similar issues, all timing chain related. Gen 1 EB are prone to stretch the chain and 5.4 are prone to blowing out the chain tensioners. To be honest with you looking back…..I might have even better off with the EcoBoost in that last Expy. My first 5.4 was great, no...

    The forum should add a thumbs down button. I have a few posts from you I’d like to use that on still. If you guys are taking requests.

    Swapping 4.10s into '23?

    The 5.4 3V had more off idle grunt than any current half ton engine from Ford from 500-1,500 rpm. It’s that 4.2” piston stroke, lots of leverage on the crankshaft. That’s what you feel immediately out of the gate, but anything over 1,500 and the ecoboost torque surges way above the 5.4L. Are you...
