And the bird that is endangered is all people talk about. But u look on you tube. And look up state park rangers. These people have made such a large...

    Need some help lifting my 98 EDDIE BAUER

    Thanks. I have been reading a lot and think I'm just gonna get the stronger torsion bars and put those in and brand them up 1.5 inches. Then add some spacers to my rear coils.

    Where are you from?

    Sorry. I was referring to the north east. We can't even enjoy out beaches anymore because of the PA tourist. Used to be able to four wheel on the beach and now it's $120 a year to get a permit. Or $50 for a week. Thanks to people driving over birds nests.

    What did you do to your expedition today?

    Well I replaced the radiator on my 98 EB. No biggie. Two hours at max. And that was installing two 10" electrics fans. dah before that changed the transfer case started motor. Was easy except for swapping out the wires from the old to the new harness. So get my 4x4 working again. Take one trip...

    What did you do to your expedition today?

    Replaced my transfer case starter motor. UGH. Sounded easy. But pulling all those wires out the clip and transferig them were fun fun. Waiting for new radiator. Had the side busy out on me. JB welded it together. And a pin hole popped out. So just gonna replace her.
