    03 EB rear window latch replacement

    Thanks, I’ll check that when I get home. Didn’t think about checking true connector voltage.

    03 EB rear window latch replacement

    Wondering if anyone has had to replace their rear liftgate glass latch? Mine takes about 4-5 tries to close so I figured it was time to replace (17 yrs old) and saw a video online on how to replace. Replaced it and it wouldn’t close. Got another one and it’s the same issue. Thinking it might be...

    How many miles on your 2nd Gen Ford Expedition?

    2003 EB 5.4 RWD just hit 131,000. Purchased into 2014 with 85k on it. It has been an excellent truck for my wife and I and our three dogs. Replaced ball joints, had a complete tune up done, and replaced rear hvac temp control modules. Biggest issue was vehicle security module and having the...

    Bluetooth Audio?

    I purchased a pioneer mvh-x380bt media receiver. Has radio, Bluetooth, siri eyes free and a bunch of other features. Bought the steering wheel control adapter and it all works great. Actually improved the sound of the speakers. I’m not mechanically inclined, especially when it comes to...

    King Ranch 20” wheel upgrade

    Also, had the truck at my mechanics the other day to get a window regulator replaced and he checked out the wheels on his lift. Apparently I can’t see worth a darn because the wheels aren’t hitting anything but the inner fender well slightly which is due to the body shop not repairing it right...

    King Ranch 20” wheel upgrade

    Hey Bill, thank you! They do give the truck a different appearance. I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking as far as how much more I’m looking at? Do you mean cost?

    King Ranch 20” wheel upgrade

    After further inspection, it seems like it’s rubbing the control arm at full lock. No plastic or wheel well is being rubbed. I’m wondering if it’s due to the inch difference from the 7.5 stock wheel to the 8.5 KR wheel? I didn’t have that problem with the stick wheels. I wouldn’t imagine 265-275...

    King Ranch 20” wheel upgrade

    Hey Moose, You’re right about rubbing tires. I was actually going to research some options for giving it a slight lift in the front. It’s a 2 wheel drive model and I want to make sure I go the right route on a slight lift. Really cool to know that your 285’s don’t rub! Thanks for the info!

    King Ranch 20” wheel upgrade

    Finally found a cheap enough set of 3rd Gen King Ranch 20” wheels. I was looking for just the wheels but these came off an F-150 with 275/65/20 Michelin’s. The rep at Discount Tire said they have about 20-25k left on them so I’m just going to run them until it’s time for some new 275/55/20’s. It...

    03 EB 5.4 RWD Brake lights flickering

    Alright guys, so I finally got around to fixing the issue. The problem wound up being a bad brake light switch. Picked one up from Auto Zone and brakes are back to normal. Sorry for the late reply but I had the truck parked and hadn’t gotten time to get around to it. I really appreciate...

    03 EB 5.4 RWD Brake lights flickering

    A constable pulled me over yesterday saying it looked like brake lights were malfunctioning. So last night I had the wife follow me and she said the brake lights work when I hit the brakes, but they flicker if I’m at a stop. Does anyone know what can be causing this problem? I appreciate any...

    TPMS Disarming

    I have an 03 and wound up changing all 5 on mine at Discount Tire. I had terrible issues with them when I bought the vehicle with the alarm going off and my message center saying tire pressure sensor fault and check tire pressure. No issues once I replaced them but you have to make sure whoever...
