    Front LCA 03 EB 4X 240k

    I’m doing front end work on the expedition. The ball joint is stuck. I pounded with a 3lb sledge and ended up mushrooming the top. The big issue is that there was wear on the bottom of the arm where the receiver cup slips and cuts into the aluminum, so I can’t get anywhere with the press. At...

    03 5.4 Exp Hub hose cut

    Among the few head scratchers I found while working on my truck, I found that the hub hose was in two pieces. I actually tried trouble shooting this a few months ago because it intermittently engages. Do I need to order the whole hole hose kit or is it possible to get that double vacuum line singly?

    Cracked timing cover 03 Exp 5.4

    Nope. The crankshaft gear was different than what came with the new timing kit, but it wasn’t a 2 part. It doesn’t have that protruding edge.

    Cracked timing cover 03 Exp 5.4

    Cracked timing cover 03 Exp 5.4

    Maybe I'm putting the tone ring on backwards? The orientation says rear and I'm facing it toward the motor.

    Cracked timing cover 03 Exp 5.4

    I took a video after I removed the cover and a photo of the cover after I had loosened it

    Cracked timing cover 03 Exp 5.4

    2003 Expedition 5.4 Eddie Bauer. I’m doing a full timing job, oil pump, water pump, and intake manifold. I went to put the timing cover on and couldn’t get it to sit correctly and realized it was cracked just above the crank seal. Thought it may have been cracked before install. Went and pulled...
