*****! Ahh that was a good laugh, thank you.
What made it worse was I was standing on two 4x4's. Previously I was standing on the anti sway bar but my son took it off to swap the bushings and yeah, well typically Millenial it didn't get put back on. :p

Ah, yes. I remember working on my friend's Fairlane, back in the day... you could crawl in the engine compartment, close the hood most of the way to keep the rain out and keep on working.
Yeah I miss the roomy engine compartments of old cars.

I've actually seen quite a few videos/tutorials on replacing timing components in the Expedition that actually recommend you stand inside the engine compartment. For other jobs like plugs and so forth, you could look into a topside creeper.
