    Svt Thunder Conversion

    Straight Lightning bumper swap on a 1999-2002 Expy. You'll have to buy the support brackets and other miscellaneous hardware.

    Interior paint ?

    I can't find SEM 5206 or SEM 5208. Does someone have the actual name of these paint colors? I tried ColorBond 120 (Med. Dark Parchment) for the darker brown dash acsents. Unfortunately, this color (ColorBond 120) is way too light. Does anyone know the ColorBond or SEM color name or number of the...

    Painting interior dash trim 2001 Expy

    Does anyone know the paint color (ColorBond) for the dark brown bezel surround for the stereo head unit and Heater Control? Mine is a 1999 Expedition. The majority of the dash is Medium Prairie Tan. I'm looking for the dark brown color.

    Does the ODB2 output transmission temp info - Gen I Expedition??

    Mike - Thanks for the link. I have the SCT X3 device. I assume this will not work for what I'm trying to accomplish.

    Does the ODB2 output transmission temp info - Gen I Expedition??

    Do you have a link to the XCT? I have the A-pillar gauge monitoring trans temp too. I think my gauge is hooked to the test port on the drivers side. What do you have your XCT hooked to?

    Does the ODB2 output transmission temp info - Gen I Expedition??

    Wondering if there is a way to read the trans temps from the ODB2 port on a Gen I (1999) expedition. I have an external trans temp gauge on my A-pillar but it would be nice to get another data point to check how accurate my aftermarket gauge and temp sensor is.

    Rendering of my 1999 Expedition

    Thought I would post this rendering of my Expedition that someone did for me. I think it came out great. What do you think?

    Preferred Battery for a Gen 1 Expy???

    What are people's preferred or recommended battery for a 1999 Expedition. I know it is group size 65. I was thinking Interstate from Costco.

    Do you have the part number(s) for the door strikers? Are they the same for the front and rear doors?

    "Thunder" 1998 Expedition Build Thread .... fixed pics!!

    I, for one, think everything you have done to top notch and on point and definitely not overdone or overkill. It's exactly what I would do given the resources ($$) and knowhow. Keep it up. Absolutely love the Expy.

    "Thunder" 1998 Expedition Build Thread .... fixed pics!!

    What's up with the 2 sets of lower control arms? I think I've asked you before, but if not, I'll ask again. Do Stiffler Upper Control Arms fit the 1st Gen 4x4s or just the 4x2s? I'm still looking for adjustable UCA for my '99 4x4 Expy that I lowered using the Ground Force kit.

    Favorite After Market Add On

    #1 Aftermarket mod would be the 2001 Lightning supercharged crate engine that sits under the hood of my Expedition. The 2nd would be the wood grain and leather steering wheel.

    Any suspension upgrades out there for 1st Gen AWD??

    Update - Installed the Rancho RS5000 Steering Stabilizer and promptly removed it 2 weeks later. It was rubbing on my Hotchkis Front Swaybar and pushed the transmission cooler lines up into the crank pulley. Luckily I got to it before any damage was done to the cooler lines. I need to mention I...

    Headlights come on in Parking Light position

    I did swap out the fog light relay for a known good one and I have a new (junk yard) switch assembly. Using the junk yard switch assembly yields the same issue. I will swap out the headlight relay - I haven't done that yet.
