    2.5" rear lift - small issue

    With the help of a friend, I was able to get the passenger side bottom strut bolt in. This evening, the strut is hanging about a 1/4" or less lower than needed to get the bolt in. Tried it both with the top bolts all the way loose, then snugged up, then about half way or so... tried a spring...

    Experience with rear sway bar

    While installing my lift spacers in the rear of my 05', I had the "bright" idea that if I removed the sway bar, I could more easily push the arms down to attach the bottom of the strut. I attempted to loosen the frame mounts, but as soon as they broke free, the whole stud began to move (a common...

    Toe Link removal

    I'm finally getting around to installing a lift on the rear of my 05'. The toe link nut is extremely hard moving. The bolt that is attached to spins with it, and so I put a socket on the end with a 8mm. It's moving, but extremely difficult. I've now broken my craftsman socket wrench. Any tips? I...

    a "new" trailer for my Expedition

    I picked up this 30 year old Jayco from my sister today. It's in pretty good shape, considering it's 30 years old. I plan on lifting the torsion axle in order to A) level the trailer to the truck, B) use a taller tire, C) give me more ground clearance. I still haven't installed the rear lift...

I use bait around the driveway, glue traps inside the cab, water traps around the driveway, and I still...

    21" LED light bar install

    After the successful backup light install, I started shopping for light bars for the front. I was thinking about installing it in the bumper, and found a 21" on Amazon that I thought would fit perfectly. I also picked up a cheap wiring harness with a relay. I started the project today by...

    Rear bumper mounted lights

    I was thinking about installing recessed LED lights into my rear bumper. I have a driveway that has turns and is uphill. Before I buy them, is this possible? I felt around in there, felt like it might be all a metal beam behind the plastic bumper cover. Thinking about between the two sensors...

    Rear End Sag

    I have an 05' XLT 4x4, no air suspension. I bought it 3 1/2 years ago, and it was sagging then. I measured the distance between the tire and the fender. It's about 5 1/2 inches in the rear, 8 inches in the front. What were these from the factory? It seems to ride fine, but I'm guessing you'll...

    Cruise control rarely works

    I have a 2005 that I purchased two months ago. The cruise control rarely works. I try it every day, and one day out of ten it might work. I'm guessing a bad connection or a faulty module? Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
