    putting my expedition out to pasture *tear*

    After 7 years of faithful, reliable service, I've finally decided to get a new ride (my first ever new vehicle). 2 days ago I filled out the paperwork, completed the financials, and signed on the dotted line to order my new ride. It's a crew-cab 2018 Nissan Frontier Pro4X w/manual transmission...

    2nd problem tonight - Low RPM shudder/vibration

    Did you change the coil boots & the coils? When I have a COP starting to go out I see those same symptoms.

    What did you do to the expy today

    Did a little towing today. The whole trip was around 6-7hr (3hr there 3-ish hr back). I bought a parts Jeep. The plan is for this jeep to heroically sacrifice its life so that my Jeep can live. The exped performed flawlessly as usual. I did notice a little idle funky-ness which I have to...

    picture request: map light wiring plug

    still no luck. plug has power. Bulbs are functional (tested before install). I tried installing the plug both ways (upside down and right side up with no success) I am wondering if there is something on the inside of the console could be causing issues. I may end up pulling the console to...

    picture request: map light wiring plug

    I plugged the plug in the slot where found a little bracket deal and it fits but I still don't have any map lights. I still didn't have any map lights. I checked the plug w/a voltmeter and had 14v. I used a little jumper setup with alligator clips from a previous project and ran 12v to the...

    picture request: map light wiring plug

    I only have 3 wires Gray/Black/Brown It looks like something might attach (wiring or maybe a piece of plastic) to where the wiring enters the map light area in the picture. I am going to try plugging it there and see what happens hahaha My Exped is an XLT w/out the trip computer in the roof...

    picture request: map light wiring plug

    I think I am missing some wiring in my main map lights. It has been missing since I purchased the truck 3-ish years ago. I have what looks like a plug end entering the map light area but nothing that goes from the plug to the two map lights. I do not see any plug-type receptacle where this...

    Took my Exped kayaking....again.

    Thanks! I also keep my 3rd row in my garage with the back seats folded down. Unfortunately my kayak is too long to carry inside my exped. I wish I could though... yea the roof bars are back on the truck now. I couldn't find them the morning I left for the lake so I had to make due with kayak...

    Took my Exped kayaking....again.

    Well today was way way too windy to play on the motorbike so I decided I would break out the kayak. I drove about 60 or so miles to Lake Mackenzie (in Briscoe County, TX). Once again the exped performed flawlessly. I had a great time. Normally I use some kind of foam to separate the boat...

    What did you do to the expy today

    didnt do anything today. Yesterday I finally found a correct size wheel for my spare. The PO exchanged the stock ford 16in wheels for the ford 17in wheels. He/she changed all except the spare....so for the last two years my spare has been a different size tire/wheel. I figured it has been two...

    Anyone try a performance chip in their Expy?

    I haven't tried a tune on my personal rig. We have chipped several vehicles at work (over the course of my 4 years) using superchips tanned tunes. 2005 Chevrolet Ext Cab 4x4- excellent results from the superchips canned tune. IIRC it had 5.3. 2009 Ford Expedition(s) 4x4 (both reg and 2 EL) -...
