    Diagnosing a bad transfer case - 2012 Expedition EL

    2.7 to 3.1 pints. Little more than I took out.

    Diagnosing a bad transfer case - 2012 Expedition EL

    There is no more to drain out. I have the truck parked facing up hill with the drain plugs down towards the back. Only one quart came out. It calls for Mercon LV, same as the transmission. That should be red. I have literally only put 600 miles on the truck since it was serviced.

    Diagnosing a bad transfer case - 2012 Expedition EL

    I pulled out one quart of very thin, almost water like black fluid. It smelled like burnt death.

    Diagnosing a bad transfer case - 2012 Expedition EL

    Is there a temperature sensor for the transfer case? How hot should the transfer case be getting? Had the transfer case rear (driveshaft) seal replaced and transfer case fluid changed in January a couple hundred miles ago. This was done by a reputable shop. I needed to move a trailer out of a...

    2012 6R80 Transmission Service preparation and part confirmation

    I believe the stock capacity is 13 to 14 quarts. Cooler and filter add 1-2 quarts. Deep pan adds 4 quarts. I have 18 quarts. Should be good.

    2012 6R80 Transmission Service preparation and part confirmation

    I'm planning on changing the transmission fluid on my 2012 Ford Expedition, equipped with a 6R80 transmission. I have a few additional parts I'd like to install while I'm doing the change, so I have the following sitting on my dining room table (much to the detest of my wife.): Mishimoto...

    Steering Rack bolt torque value?

    2012 Expedition...What's the torque value for the big f-off size bolts that hold the steering rack in? I had to replace the brake line that runs from the ABS module to the front/right caliper. My Milwaukee impact was struggling to get them loose with a fresh battery; I eventually had to put a...

    Suspension upgrades - kinda hard to find..

    They don't really. I've seen people with trailers made out of old bed frames, welded together with a couple of car batteries and a coat hanger as an electrode... You can literally tow anything in this state and the state troopers won't care. Don't speed though.

    I do not have any rubbing issues.

    Suspension upgrades - kinda hard to find..

    I'm looking for suspension upgrades as well, but for slightly different reasons. Old truck was a 2003 Ford Excursion Limited with a 6.8L V10 engine. I could put a house behind the thing and wouldn't even know it was there... Heaviest load I've towed was over 9k lbs. Too much tongue weight...

    SJB (Smart Junction Box) modification - separate turn signal bulbs

    I have a paid copy of ForScan. I've been exploring some options in the Smart Junction Box programming One such option allows me to select rear tail light options. My choices are: 0 - Bulb Outage OFF 3 - Stop and turn signals use same bulb 12 - Stop and turn signals use separate bulbs I know...

    Paint on lift gate bubbling, is there anything being done to correct this problem? I have a 2012, lift gate paint is bubbling and starting to crack

    It's aluminum, right? It's not gonna rust.

    Bumper recommendations?

    My 2012 Expedition EL needs some REAL steel or aluminum bumpers, not the plastic crap that's on there now. My previous truck hit multiple deer at highway speeds and I have been rear ended more than three or four times within a year in stop and go traffic. Never hurt the stock steel bumpers on...

    Debating trading in or sprucing up my '14 Limited

    It's called technology. You have a landline? Or are you still sending messages by carrier pigeon and pony express? Look at the V8s of yesteryear. 2bbl carburetor Fairlane/Meteor 221 cubic inch V8 makes 145 HP. That's getting on Honda Civic territory. As technology improves, we can get more...
