    Rims from 2022-2024 on 3rd gen

    It will bolt right up for you, no need to bother with a dealership (like they'll know anyway). Nothing important changed between the 3rd and 4th gen in regards to wheel/tire fitment.

    2016 EL Trailer Brake Controller

    Not really sure how/why his TBC "never worked" but the factory unit in my '17 EL works fine. I'm not in love with how it ramps in trailer braking pressure really high on the initial vehicle brake application, then that pressure tapers off. Sometimes it makes things feel slightly jerky but this...

    Driver's side blend door actuator location

    Front mode door is just above the throttle pedal, up and to the right.

    First 2022 SPP Mods (Lift, Tires, Intake, etc.

    Yes CCD still functions just fine with the ReadyLift kits. It's a spacer that goes on top of the existing strut with brackets to keep the sensors in the right working range. Only way to lift a CCD rig and still keep CCD functional. The Rough Country arms are a nice option, because I agree the...

    Factory Rack & Roof Top Tents

    The factory side rails are rated for the weight, but the crossbars are not. I have a 2017 EL without sunroof, which gets you that 200lb factory dynamic rating. Tent: CVT Mt Washington "medium", 75x47x10" when closed, and around 185lbs. It spent roughly 18 months on the top of my car with...

    6inch lift

    Are you sure? This should be fun to watch

    Slight Lift Help

    I have essentially the same rig but in black, and I did Eibach/Bilstein 5100s. Mileage was half of yours at the time of replacement, but my springs and perches were in perfect shape so I reused all that without issue. Just hammer the perches off, it was not hard at all (west coast vehicle, so no...

    New to me 2021 Expy -- must have upgrades?

    Would you be able to share the coding for getting the fogs as DRL? I made a number of changes to my ‘17 XLT in forscan, but wasn’t successful with that one.

    Suspension recommendations please

    Bilstein 5100s would be your best bet. Unless there is damage or you can visibly see/feel spring sag, just reuse the factory pieces aside from the strut. 5100s allow for stock height or up to ~1.5" of lift front and rear.

    2016 XLT - 185,000 Replacements so far

    While I can understand your frustration, every vehicle is going to need repairs as it ages and gets used, a lot, like yours is. Why are you driving 20k/yr and do you need to be doing it in a full size SUV? I'm not suggesting either is a bad thing, but driving a high maintenance vehicle that...

    2017 Expedition Cooling Fans Loud. On High When A/C is on.

    My fan runs on high with the AC on when ambient temps are in the 90s or higher. Pretty normal to ensure everything is staying cool. These motors produce a lot of heat so it needs to work harder compared to other cars to keep everything in check. What are the ambient temps when this happens?

    Rubber Blocks?!?! -- 2016 Rear shock/Strut Coil Assembly -

    It sounds like a sumo spring a previous owner inserted to help with sag while loaded up (usually towing). If you don’t want them, many people here would take them, including myself.

    2016 trans fluid service?

    The dorman one in that link is what I used. I think I grabbed it from Amazon for about $30 delivered

    2016 trans fluid service?

    I would advise pulling the pan, replacing the ~7 quarts and filter, then putting a drain plug in your original pan while it’s off, or buying the dorman pan which has one installed. I can assure you the fluid iniside a 6r80 is not going to last 150k without severely breaking down.

    2023 UPDATE, How Does Everyone Feel About Their Tunes and Tuners?

    I had Juggernaut tune mine, they use and prefer SCT. It's a "custom" tune like some of the other companies mentioned here where they send a base file, and you provide logs based on each file. Takes a few days but really dials everything in just how you want it. I previously used the canned SCT...
