    Ram Mirrors Have Arrived!

    Wow... they are large. Did you need them for trailer towing? The F-series extendable ones wouldn't fit?

    What did you do to the expy today

    resetting the CEL

    Long story short... my truck overheated on a -6 morning while idling alongside the road. When I got back in the CEL was on and the truck was in Limp mode. After a ride on the hook, I have my truck back home. Now it seems that it came out of limp mode when it cooled down, but the CEL is...

    How Many Miles Between Oil Changes

    I'm running mine up to a premium synthetic with a LONG OCI. So this time is 7,500. The next is 10k. This is on full synthetic. I'm very wary of anything called synthetic blend. There is no actual standard for what makes a synthetic blend. So it can be 99.99% group II conventional and one...

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    Unfortunately those U-haul POS trailers only have surge brakes. If you had electric brakes, you would have been able to tap the brakes on trailer only to bring it under control. The trailer's short length created much of your problem. Because of the weight of the old girl loaded incorrectly...

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    I'm not sure what came on. I bought it with no air ride on it. But... I got it from an excavating company. The owner used it as his personal ride. He did use it to tow at times, so maybe he ordered it this way or removed the air ride system. Illinois summer weather is Florida summer...

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    I could key on all day long and it wouldn't change the ride level....:chewie: Yeah.... I know I have to paint, the village has whined at me this year as it was. My house is about 3000 sq ft. That's alot of ladder time for a guy with crap knees.

    A couple more tows for me... that is the same trailer as my other one, but my wheeling Jeep on it. This was using the adjustable flip hitch that belongs to the troop. I've replaced it since then with a standard rise hitch and we reloaded the trailer. It rides nice and level now.

    Another dreaded Oil question.

    I crawl under my 90 Cherokee to change the oil.. more room under there than there is under my 01 EB. Of course the Cherokee sits on 4.5" of lift... I had a problem with the PO using an oil change place that cranked down on the filter. For a bit I thought I was going to have to go to NAPA...

    What the HECK is this on the back side of the center console?

    My controls are the same spot as yours. But I have no sun roof. And I have done the same thing to the kids when they are especially whiny....

    Anyone install a valve body (shift) kit in their Gen1?

    I looked for one for my tranny as I use my Expy as a tow slut. But I couldn't find a kit that I liked.

    Another dreaded Oil question.

    K&N oil filters are made by Champion Labs, just like a ton of other filters. Just get yourself a good quality filter and skip the fancy name and welded nut.
