    Lug nut removal

    “Ford Ugggh! nuts“. 2 remaining. Tin jacket on lug nuts: destroyed Multiple WD-40 soaks: done Hexagon shape: long gone This is the first time in my life that creating enough torque with a hammer/chisel didn’t work. Suggestions for my horror story?

    Transmission compatibility: 6R75 vs. 4R75E

    I was wondering if it would just work in gears 1-4. Thanks for the reply @JExpedition07

    Transmission compatibility: 6R75 vs. 4R75E

    Are these two transmissions swappable, by chance (i.e. will an Expy 6R75 work in an F-150 King Ranch of the same model year)?

    Lug nut removal

    I have same issue. I have been carefully chiseling off the tin jackets on the lugs that won’t budge, so I can get to the actual lug. If/when the actual lug starts to round off, you can try the “chisel torque” method (see attached), where you: place your chisel off-center on the edge of the lug...

    What size bolts are these: steering rack to subframe?

    Update: 27mm socket worked, although a little loose. I was also able to hammer on a 1 inch 12 point box wrench FYI

    Convert truck to mini-camper

    @Deano_1 et al., I’m making a towable camper. Removed all seats except I’m keeping the 3rd row. Cutting out front floor pan so, I can stand up on the ground (tarp protects for weather) and firewall (engine box is bed #1).

    Converting Expy to a hunting camper - idler wheels

    @sjwelds , any issue with bolting the rear wheels directly to the bearing/hub face (as opposed to the brake rotor face), you think? Looks like my wheels would just sit inboard a hair. Less inertia should be good :)

    12v switched radio

    @bobgriner , it looks like the Grey/Violet (i.e. GY/VT) wire in our factory harness (Connector C240A) is the “mystery feed” from our Smart Junction Box (SJB). See pic.

    Anyone got the the radio wiring diagram for a 2007 Expy Eddie Bauer?

    I just discovered that the State of Michigan gives public libraries free access to all automotive technical manuals (includes wiring diagrams). Go to your library and have a librarian pull them up for you. Gold mine!

    How do I remove the dash on a 2007?

    I found it! Hidden bolt wasn’t where I thought it was at all (i.e. yellow circled area). It ended up being another bolt up near the windshield frit on the driver side! I thought for sure that I got em all before, but there was one remaining. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

    12v switched radio

    I have a similar question on my 2007 (i.e. also a Gen3 Expy). However, I’m just trying to power up my factory radio. A pro audio installer told me the Accessory 12V+ wire is Brn/Ylw on the the Ignition Harness, but I thought that went to the ECM before arriving at the radio harness. I do see a...

    How do I remove the dash on a 2007?

    So far, I’ve followed this video . It seems that the dash/I.P. is still attached in one more spot, but I can’t figure out how/where. Kinda feels like where the yellow circle is (see attached pic). Isn’t this where a stud/pin/hook is or something? On the right side, at the same spot, dash is...

    Bypassing the “key on” circuit for accessories

    Sorry, @99WhiteC5Coupe . I have a 2007 4x4 Eddie Bauer with a key ignition (that I will be removing soon).

    Bypassing the “key on” circuit for accessories

    I’m turning my Expy into a camper/shell (removing ignition, battery, engine, etc.). Since I’ll be using my 12V power supply to power my radio, sunroof, windows, door locks, etc., how do I best tweak (e.g. jumper, splice, etc.) the circuitry/relay box(es) to “think” my key is “on” all the time...

    Dash/I.P. removal: Do I need to be concerned about airbags blowing my head off?

    I’m gutting out my 2007 Expy 4x4 Eddie Bauer Ed. down to the body-in-white. Is there anything I need to do to ensure I don’t set off airbags inadvertently?
