    Engine Swap

    That's a great idea! The concrete route is going to be expensive and it is out at my grandparents house, I still haven't even figured out how to get this past them (I was thinking sense there is a hoop with a dirt court maybe i would lay a basketball court down and use it for the swap and then...

    Engine Swap

    Small update, I finally got some pictures but managed to break my phone before i uploaded them so I will get out and take more once i get a hold of a camera, the project was stopped for a couple days because it snowed and the weather has been horrible! I don't have a garage or shop. I think I'm...

    Engine Swap

    Thats what I'm thinking! The wiring harness in the donor expo isn't even complete! Some how whoever owned the vehicle before had managed to break things like the wires running to the mass airflow sensor :boxed: My main issue right now is my location, There isn't a slab of concrete for miles...

    Engine Swap

    Small update, in 2 weeks I will be picking up a third expo with a tan interior. Its drive train is mostly intac (dead tranny), but its a 4.6l, so the motor will go to my grandparents who have a f150 that has a blown 4.6. I've decided I'm going to swap the tan leather Interior over from the 98...

    Shot Sparkplug

    Ok after lots of thought and pure luck, my dad ended up having a friend with an 01 Eddie Bauer expo that is the exact same color but has leather interior, a moon roof (I did not know they came with these) and a few other small features that were not on mine, The catch being it has a rod knock...

    Shot Sparkplug

    I've thought about that would the pats system work with the computer? I would have to get door keys but a 10 dollar key being cut for door locks is a lot cheaper than 2 60 dollar keys being cut and programmed to the vehicle. A head, head gasket set, and mass airflow sensor (mine got jacked for...

    Shot Sparkplug

    The local locksmith is able to do it for a 60$ fee plus whatever they charge per hour. Do I need to get 2 keys cut or can I get away with one then add more down the road? What would be the best method of obtaining a new head, should I trust a junkyard head or would some online source like ebay...

    Shot Sparkplug

    Hi I apologies if this forum is in the wrong spot, I'm new to the site I was given a 1999 Expo xlt from my dad because it didn't run and I wouldn't let him get rid of it because of sentimental value. He had gotten it in vegas with very low miles and in great condition, he got it cheap though...
