    2000 5.4L Bauer - Cabin Air Filter?

    For the 97-02 Expeditions - there were not any cabin air filters that came standard with any edition (XLT or EB). It was however an option.......a dealer option specifically when pre-ordering or customizing...but the cabin air filters on the 1st gens are extremely rare and uncommon.

Which begs the question, was this an actual option for the 00-02? Or has individuals been extremely crafty with obtaining and...

    What did you do to the expy today

    MY GOD......I just ended up dropping $1900 on upkeep and immediate repairs on my 01 Exp EB with 122K. Normal maintenance stuff initially: - Oil Change - Injector Flush/Service - Alignment - Double checking on why ABS light was constantly on. But my new 5 month old brakes were making some weird...

    Rear AIR Suspension Concern

    To be honest OP and a lot of people here are giving great advise, so I will piggy-back some of theirs as well.... MY 01 EXP EB (2WD) had the air suspension leveling system too...mine eventually just gave out due to age about 4 years ago at 79K. As being the original owner, it was way to costly...

    97 xlt ABS delete possible?

    Same here....01 Expy EB 5.4L. I was told with mine that the internal sensor within the complete module is going bad so therefore the entire module needs to be replaced...which would cost me $300-400 overall with a core charge. Now my ABS light comes on sporadically ... no real pattern in driving...

    New headlight bulb recommendations?

    I have had new Lightning style headlight assemblies for a couple years now, and replaced the bulbs with some whiter bulbs...but apparently these kind of suck, as the hi-beams do not illuminate well, and they are not as bright as I want them to be. I have to have a pretty illuminated view at...

    ABS System

    Well, at least it is the pump on your Exp. My 2001 EB 5.4L ABS control module needs to be replaced....the damn light kept coming on, and I even took it to 2 different Ford dealerships, and they said there is nothing wrong with it.....which I called BS. So I found a regular mechanic that...
