    custom sub box under rear seat 01 expy

    Well, I don't listen to much rap, mostly country and rock/metal. Once in awhile I''ll bump Brotha Lynch or something. I don't want anything like a 4000w system, nor the need for 2 15s. I just know I had a 10" JBL under the rear passenger fold down seat in my F150, and it hit HARD. Seeing as how...

    custom sub box under rear seat 01 expy

    Is that due to the huge interior space difference between an xtra cab F150 and an expedition? So in other words it would be best to put a box behind the rear seat and sacrifice some cargo space. Disappointing...

    custom sub box under rear seat 01 expy

    Are there any decently priced sub boxes that go under the rear seat for an 01 expy? Only ones I have been finding are ones that either go in the 3rd row spot and kill your cargo space, or under the rear seat but don't allow the seat to fold. that would be an option but I cannot find it now, and...

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    no... a lot of highway. in traffic and city driving it drops to between 14 and 15. I had a lifted F150 on 315s and a flow master 40.... I got used to driving like there is an egg under my foot LOL

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    plugs were all good. after checking mileage out of a few tanks, I'm now getting 18.5MPG. I DEFINITELY cannot complain about that. Did the GOTTS mod and cleaned the MAF. Still need to clean the IAC, as it sounds like there is a very loud hum at idle that goes away once I give it gas. I know I...

    Front heater lukewarm rear heater HOT

    So I am now looking to improve neglected things on this expy, and the heater is one of them. The front heater blows lukewarm, but the rear blows HOT. The front feels pretty warm on low, but when you turn up the fan it cools down. The rear blows hotter on high than the front does on low. I have...

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    Hopefully the gas mileage will settle down a bit. I topped it off yesterday and it went from full to 3/4.... in 45 miles. Almost all freeway. I’m gonna gather a look at the pcv and iat once I do the terminal, clean the MAF, and if all else fails I’ll hook up the Solus to it and get the live graphs

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    Yeah I learned my lesson with that one lol. Now the negative battery terminal broke. Man.. I’m having bad terminal luck lately.

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    okay, so I pulled the plug and the coil pack. I replaced the coil pack on general principles, along with both front wheel bearings. plastic pos's were all messed up - luckily they didn't grenade and my races were fine. so now with a new coil pack on #8 , it purrs like a kitten and you cannot...

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    so I have not had time to pull the coil pack... I can do that on Thursday. (finals week). However, when its cold, it runs good.... until you jump on the gas. then it starts misfiring on cylinder 8. yet it had a momentary good spell, and full throttle did not trigger the engine light, and I was...

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    Yeah, I guess I know that. Hopefully I didn't fry the COP. That number 8 is a PITA to get to come out to play. I lost my wigglies, so I am not looking forward to taking out the COP.

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    I just checked on break, and sure enough...P0308 is back. It is stumbling pretty good. I'm not sure about the rear T for the rear coolant... I know it has rear heating and cooling, but I have never actually used either outside of testing in the 14 years the truck has been in the family. the rear...

    'new' engine, misfire on cyl 8

    so I got a used, low mileage motor installed, and overall runs great. however, yesterday I hosed it down because it was filthy. it started throwing a P0308 - misfire on cyl 8. I figured it was from the water in the cylinder, as that is something I'm used to. I heated it up nice and good and...

    redoing the paint on my decklid, and need some advice

    the original paint was cracking off and exposing bare betal and beginning to rust. Entire left half of the decklid, which is why I got ALL the paint off. Either way, as is right now, it looks a million times better than it did!

    redoing the paint on my decklid, and need some advice

    Hi all, so I decided to fix the cracked paint on my 01 expy, I took the paint to bare metal on half of the decklid because I'm lazy and underestimated how much work it would take. I primered it myself and it turned out GREAT. It shocked me the quality of it out of a spraycan. but the auto paint...
