2000 expedition xlt RWD sags in rear
I was just about to post another thread about something else I noticed today. When looking straight down 2rear fenders it looks like the axle is shifted towards the passenger side by almost an inch. The coils look straight up and down, both measured the same length from top to bottom. I had the...- Josh_913

2000 expedition xlt RWD sags in rear
My expe has the 4 wheel standard suspension so I have coil springs all around. Just replaced all 4 coil springs and shocks because the drivers side rear coil blew. After replacing all of them the truck still leans to the drivers side by about 2”, is there anything else that could be causing...- Josh_913

Crank but no start and runs fine now
I was driving back home for the holidays a couple days ago and pulled off to use the restroom at a truck stop. To my surprise when I went to go start my expe up to finish my drive she cranked but wouldn’t start. I got it to actually start a couple times but it would die immediately after. I...- Josh_913

Biggest Tire Size Possible on Stock Wheels?
Spindle lifts are dirt cheap btw it’s good option to lift a RWD expe without breaking the bank I think I spent around $300 for 5” spindles and 3” blocks for the rear- Josh_913

Biggest Tire Size Possible on Stock Wheels?
I’m currently running 35s (315/75r/16 on the stock 16” wheels with a 5inch spindle lift kit. The bumper needed a small amount of trimming so it wouldn’t rub but it’s hardly noticeable. The key is getting it into a good alignment shop after getting the tires installed. Big tires love to go out...- Josh_913

Transmission Removal & Installation
Unfortunately today my transmission took its final shift and started slipping in first and second, it started as an overheat and I never noticed the slipping so beware if you've ever had a transmission overheat. My transmission shop quoted me $3000 to rebuild it with a heavy duty rebuild kit...- Josh_913

2000 Expedition transmission overheat
Thanks for your advice! The fluid level is fine I just had a fluid and filter change done, there is a UDOT road condition camera just before that point that transmits a live camera feed. But I will try stopping before that point the next time I drive up the mountain.- Josh_913

2000 Expedition transmission overheat
I work up at a ski resort which requires me to drive up a pretty steep (paved) mountain road. Towards the top of the mountain there’s a 10% grade S turn and recently every time I’ve gone up that grade my OD light starts flashing, when I had the code read it read as a transmission overheat. The...- Josh_913

1999 Ford Expedition No Start No Crank - Electrical Issues
This is true sometimes but more often than not when a NSS fails it wont start in either. I would also suggest trying to make sure other electrical components work when the battery is on (ie: horn, lights turn signals high beams) that'll tell you if its the NSS or the another electrical problem...- Josh_913
