Bah, just a bad bearing (spun main???), that's just a good weekend's work to fix up.

While I have not done it myself on an Expedition, my quickie google search reveals that it should be possible to drop the pan and change them without pulling the engine. I have done it on a number of other vehicles and it's really not that bad of a job.

That's some serious rod knock!!

Put some 50w oil in there she will be just fine..

Sorry to hear panda.. but it could be worse. Likely just a bad rod bearing.

You can do as lightning said and just replace rod bearings if crank journal is not damaged. Dropping the oil pan would be the hardest part.

its rod knock. shes done. not gonna put the money into her. she needs more then just an engine. she has served her purpose for many years. it was time. 190k miles. ill be on for sure. ill be selling some parts. specture CAI, Hypertech Power Programmer III, and maybe the edge if i cant use it in the next truck i get. so someone can get a good deal on that. im just gonna give her to the junk yard. take everything off i want to keep and let her go. shell be pretty much bare bones once i get her stock again.
