    lowering revisited

    Mike Troyer has tuned a supercharged '98 F150 I had, a slightly modified '04 F150 Lighthning that I had and this Expedition. The difference from stock is unbelieveable. The SCT XCAL2 that I have has three tunes on it. They are all better than stock but I prefer the 93 octane performance tune...

    lowering revisited

    Hello all. I've searched and haven't really found what I'm looking for. I would like to lower the Expy a bit. Mostly for handling, as any kit that I've seen doesn't lower much. To be honest this beast doesn't inspire confidence at highway speeds. I like how it handled bumps at lower speeds...

    cup holder in center console

    I had those on my '98 F150. They are handy. That isn't an option in my Expedition.

    cup holder in center console

    It's amazing what a couple rubber bits can do. I thought my dealership would order me the rubber inserts but when I went to the dealership my salesman snuck around and took a couple from an '05 they had on the lot. I'm happy. I drove all the way home and my coffee cup was stationary the...

    cup holder in center console

    Ok. So I've solved my problem. 197 hits? Why are you all checking this thread out? Just curious. Also, I would like to get responses to my threads. Care to elaborate?

    cup holder in center console

    Thanks ELVATO. I believe that you have helped me solve the problem. When you said that a 12oz. can fit, I knew we were talkig about something different. I just went and looked at interior pics. My Expedition is missing the black plastic insert that holds the beverage containers in place. I'd...

    cup holder in center console

    Yea. That's what I use for my coffee. A travel mug with the lid. We have a whole bunch of them. They are pretty much standard 12oz. travel mugs that you find at the convience store or other places as a promotional thing. Every vehicle I've had has accepted these "standard" type travel mugs...

    cup holder in center console

    Wierd question, I know. I did a search and couldn't find anything. I drink a lot of coffee. I've virtually quit smoking, so instead of having a cigarette while driving, I'll sip a coffee the whole ride. Problem is, the cup holders in the center console are way too big for all of the travel...

    If it for the expedition what would you drive.

    If it were an SUV, it would be a Trailblazer SS. I like many vehicle that are in the market today. It would be pretty hard to choose just one.

    Cleaning under the hood

    I have read countless times of people who had issues after washing the engine bay. I think that water can get in the spark plug wells and create different issues. Being that I've read several times, for several years, that people have had problems after washing the engine I think the general...

    Procharged 24V 5.4 Expy?

    I'm just wondering if there are any people here that have Procharged their 24 valve 5.4 Expedition. I know that ATI has a supercharger that is for the '04-'06 F150/Expedition. I don't know how much different the engine bays are from one another. I don't know if there are subtel differences in...

    Can the governor been taken off?

    Well, I'm no expert but this is where I got my information from: TireRack.com My '98 F150 came with T rated tires. With the speed limiter in place the truck couldn't reach the 118mph maximum rated speed. Eliminating the limiter, or raising the limited speed allows the vehicel to exceede...

    Can the governor been taken off?

    My '06 feels very stabil at 85-90. I think that the vehicle can handel the speeds fine, it's the tire rating that we need to pay attention to. I like to go fast like may out there but it is dangerous and is best done on a track. So you know, I'm being a hypocrite saying that. I haven't done...

    New 2007 EL Eddie Bauer. Word.

    Looks great. I sat in one at a local auto show recently. It's a few steps better than my '06. Nice ride. I'll bet you feel the improvement in power with the 24V 5.4. You've got the 5 speed auto too, right? I would have liked that but I wouldn't be able to afford an '07 till next year. I...

    Lowering 03...

    I'm pretty sure the '03 and up are 6 lug. F150 went 6 lug in '04.
