    Help another poor soul ensure it is a head gasket

    The rig hasn't been driven since getting it home. Its parked in the garage and the bumper cover, bumper and air components up to the TB are already off. Picked up an engine hoist and stand and the shop manuals arrived today. Going to start into it this week.

    Oh, and what is up with the dirty brown wheels in the front. I just saw another expedition that looked about that same year and style and it had brownish front wheels too. Stephen

    '03, 116k miles $650 with almost new tires, advice needed

    Thanks for the input everyone. I told my friend I would buy it. Haven't taken possession yet. Anyone have a good recommendation on where to get a real manual for it? I would like to have the information about what pipe and such are back there. Stephen

    '03, 116k miles $650 with almost new tires, advice needed

    So, I have an opportunity to buy an '03 from a guy I have known for a long time for $650. He is basically looking to get the tire value and the $150 the scrappers would give him out of it.
