    It's Official this Expedition HATES ME

    Okay so seems I am always fixing little things here and there after I had some major stuff done in the past (rear end, ac system, heater core, replacing entire ignition system). So the other day I went to start it and instead of it firing it simply went "clunk" (a bit louder than a click from...

    What did you do to your expedition today?

    Ordered up the clear Ford Lightning style headlights and corners along with all new front bulbs and a Spectre air filter oh and some fuse adapters so I can piggyback onto a fuse in the fuse box to hard wire my dash camera, tired of the outlet being tied up for it.

    Rough Country...Montana

    I know many in the Jeep world that suggest body lifts for the occasional 4x4'er. You still maintain ride comfort, get to put some larger tires on for added clearance and far less money and mods required.

    Complicated 4x4 issue

    Well hello guys, here is what took place. We did some road testing (dirt roads that is) we did lots of meter and programmer testing, some internet printing and some cussing, some anger at each other and even resorted to a $20 bet but in the end it is confirmed that I have a spastic GEM module...

    Power Window Issue

    Well some are gonna laugh at me but today I found out the GEM module can mess with your mind on a lot of items in a vehicle. My main issue was the 4x4 not engaging when I wanted it to but rather would if it decided to allow me to select it. I had some other issues like my drivers side window...

    Complicated 4x4 issue

    Would love to be able to turn wrenches again. I guess this is the biggest part that kills me is that actually I am not dumb when it comes to vehicles, in fact pretty smart at it. My last toy was a 1995 Impala SS that I worked on myself and tweaked a bit. Life has its ways of stopping ya...

    Pillar post cover removal

    I am sure everyone but me knows how to get the pillar post on the drivers side off by the windshield so please enlighten me. No screws and I am a bit scared to just start tugging on the cover not knowing if that is the right thing to do.

    Urgent Info on rear end swap

    Thank you all, I do not have it back yet but it is in and moved under its own power off the rack so the last little bit of odds and ends can be completed. It is a lot heftier rear end for sure. As for ABS, yes I am sure its nice to keep that functional and maybe there is a way to make it work...

    Pissed me off enough to make a video

    I admit I get mad pretty easy over issues that I feel are just wrong and I tend to not let it ride or let it go, yes its a not always good but at times it may help others and I hope this is one of times it might help others save a little. Over Priced Parts From O'Reilly's and they DONT CARE...
