    Tires took a crap on me this weekend

    Anybody experienced something similar? I'm driving along on the highway and all of a sudden BANG wham wham wham. Slow down and ease over to the side of the road expecting to find a blowout. Nope. Left rear tire decided it didn't want to have any tread on it anymore. Lost about 1/4 of the...

    Changed Tires/Wheels 2000 Expy

    Problem solved Was getting a rumbling from the TC under heavy acceleration. Went to Ford and the shop manager (a real nice guy) diagnosed the problem right away. At no cost. Seems that the new tires I put on the front had a different profile than those on the rear (about 20000 miles on them...

    Changed Tires/Wheels 2000 Expy

    OK, I'm a real newby at this Does the programmer stay with the truck or is it a program and forget process?

    Changed Tires/Wheels 2000 Expy

    I went from a stock 16 rim (steel - 22570R16) to a stock 17 rim (alloy - 255/75R17). I know my speedo is now about 7-9% off (calculated 11%). Question is this. I think the change is affecting my torque-on-demand AWD and I'm now getting a noise when I "jump on the gas" that wasn't there...
