    20x9.5 +15 Wheels and 295/65R20 Tires?

    Those will probably fit really good. I'm running a 17x9 +18 and they don't poke at all. Yours will poke out about a quarter inch more than mine which will not be "absurd" in my view.

    Expy died with no warning and then revived itself. Thoughts?

    Does the 04 have a different fuel pump relay than the 03 that is soldered onto the board? The description is similar to my 03 when I had to replace that relay.

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    In that case, I may just find the cheapest one online and order it so I get a new green fitting too. Thanks!

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    I looked at that, but all the fitments said it wasn't for 2003 Expy. I figured, if I'm buying something that isn't made to fit, I'll just go the cheap route and buy bulk fuel line.

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    2' of 3/8" fuel line with a dab of oil on each end to help it slip over the barbs. Unfortunately the clips on the green elbow were brittle and broke off. It's a snug fit at the valve assembly so I don't think it'll fall off, but I may add a zip tie around the whole thing to ensure it doesn't...

    Popped the hood and think I found the leak in 2 seconds without getting dirty or taking the smoke machine out of the box. Gonna see if this hose is still available OEM.

    I hope you're right! I guess I'll respond after this weekend.

    Guess I'm getting a smoke machine! My '03 5.4 has been running great, but set 4 codes yesterday - P1000, P0171, P0174, P0442. I expected the 442 since I've had cracked plastic fuel tank fittings for years, but the lean conditions are new and point to a new vacuum leak. I have mostly original...

    Seat covers recommendations

    I also recommend The Seat Shop. Watch their website and social media for sales around any holiday. My purchase was October 2017 and there was one of those "spooky" sales. I got 26% off. I think they had a March Madness sale too, which is coming up soon. I replaced upper and lower front leathers...

    Not that old, and good info about plastic welding. Let us know how it turns out if you do the weld repair. I had another P0442 code this week. It's annoying getting the check engine light every few months and having to plan my fuel fill ups.

    Bullbar does not offer the protection I expected

    Yup. +1 on that. They're cosmetic, not protection. Sorry the OP thought spending more was worth more.

    Coolant leak!

    Well known failure point. Replace entire manifold. https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/5-4l-coolant-manifold-crossover-leak.51174/

    2nd gen replacement seat covers EB tan 50$ pass/drv complete walmart.com

    If I could do it over, and I might 1 day, I'd use a fuel resistant sealant that should stay pliable. I suspect the epoxy didn't stay sealed because it didn't have give.

    Same code here. I carry the Hypertech with me because it also reads codes and can clear them.
