    Just upgraded from 1999 XLT to 2017 Platinum....questions

    Congrats on your new ride first of all. They’re great trucks. Answering your questions in order: 1) My wife and I have owned a total of 7 Fords with the capless fuel fillers since 2010, and never once have thought about adding the locking cap to any of them. Speaking from experience, even with...

    Expedition Ecoboost Tune

    The 2017 has the advantage of improved output (375hp and 470 ft-lbs) and the 10-speed. Not to mention it doesn’t state whether it’s a 4WD or not. I’m guessing not with that output. This is a 2014 with 4WD and the EB. It’s also most directly comparable to the 15-17 EB. It’s a 31% powertrain...

    Expedition Ecoboost Tune

    I can only go off their dynocharts, which shows their F-150 4x4 with 3.73s making 250hp and 300 ft-lbs stock. Their 93 performance tune shows 320hp and 450 ft-lbs peak. All figures at the wheels. But the real win is that the tuned one doesn’t drop below 300 ft-lbs until 5300 rpm. It sure feels...

    JLT Oil Seperator

    I’d been on the fence about a catch can until today. I vented my BOV to atmosphere months ago, and then noticed today I’m actually getting drops on my driveway from the oil that’s being vented through it. Considering the BOV only vents maybe 1% of the time I spend driving, that’s a LOT of oil...

    Anyone change the rear gears?

    Go under the truck and count the bolts. If there’s 10, it’s an 8.8, 12 it’s a 9.75. Same rules apply if it’s the 9.75. Standard gears, traction devices, and installation kits work. I imagine it’s the same as the F-150 was, 2WD could have either depending on options, and the 4WD typically has an...

    Anyone change the rear gears?

    Wow, can’t believe they used the 8.8 in the rear in the 2008 behind the 5.4. According to Randy’s, it uses standard gears, traction devices, and installation kits. https://www.ringpinion.com/DiffWizard.aspx

    Expedition Ecoboost Tune

    Sure have. I have 3 different tunes from 5-Star: 87 Performance Tow, 87 Performance, and 93 Performance. Basically run the 93 tune since I bought my truck. Worth every penny IMO.

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    The one where you can't take the truck out of drive if the key isn't present in the vehicle? Afraid I can't answer that one either, as my truck is old-fashioned and still uses a regular key.

    Lowering an EL

    I'm not totally familiar with the earlier (pre-15) trucks, but how does the front struts in the 11 compare to the 04-08 F-150? I know the 15-17 Expedition front suspension is nearly identical to the 14 F-150, so was thinking that the 11 might be functionally similar to the 08 F-150, as the...

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    Been a while since there was anything new happening in here, so I figured I'd bump this up now that I've found a little time to tweak things again. I updated ads245's spreadsheet with a couple of things I can't quite recall seeing confirmed previously. I added turning off the seatbelt minder...

    Tire Warning

    I’m not sure there is a general consensus. I’ve pulled my data from the Tire and Rim Association Load vs pressure tables, as they are the ones who determined the standard P-metric and LT-metric tires are rated by. Once you change from one load range and size tire to another (C to E, 265/70R17 to...

    Tire Warning

    Ah, wasn’t clear you were running LT tires as well. But Load Range E are 2470 pounds at 50 PSI. If you’re consistently running that heavy, should be a comfortable number for your tires. Definitely will ride rougher, but a small trade off.

    I don’t see any reason you wouldn’t be fine at 40.

    Tire Warning

    Overlooking the fact that you would be exceeding the GVWR by quite a bit, there can be as much harm done by overinflating as underinflating. And you don’t need a full 100% safety margin, because under those conditions, weight transfer is going to be far less because the weight reduces the...

    Tire Warning

    That’s the difficult thing about determining an “ideal” pressure to run. Manufacturers base their pressures off load ratings for the overall vehicle at GVWR plus an overage (hence the OPs GVWR of 7500, but all four tires combined can support 9220; narrow it to just the back tires and it’s 4300...

    Tire Warning

    Based on the information I’ve found from the Tire and Rim Association, your stock tire size is rated for 2305 pounds at 35 psi. For your current LT275/70R18E tires, they are rated for 2310 pounds at 41 PSI. So in your particular situation, 48 is a little bit high. About as close to an apples...

    Tire Warning

    Tires are non-linear as was pointed out by chuck. It depends on the specific tire size. Generally speaking, smaller LT tires need more pressure than larger ones. On my 15, running a P265/70R18 at 35 PSI converts to an LT265/70R18 at 53 PSI. I would consider running 15-17 PSI too little a pretty...

    Tire Warning

    The best way to figure out the correct pressure for an LT tire versus a passenger car tire is by doing the math. For instance, a factory P265/70R18 tire is rated for a max load of 2679 at 44 PSI. Divide max load by PSI to get pounds/PSI (60.89). Multiply that by the factory tire pressure (i.e...

    What was last year of 5.4L on Expy's?

    $9K to replace an EB is a little disingenuous. You can find the crate motor from $7500-8400 depending on where you look, and the only reason to get one is to install it in something that didn’t come with it. If you were just replacing the engine in a 15-17 Expedition, you can order a...

    How much did it cost you guys?

    I had a 6R80 in my 2009 F-150 4x4 that I had to replace at 154K. After seeing the insane prices for rebuilds, I scored one for $600 out of a junkyard truck with 75K miles on it and paid $400 to get it installed. When I traded it in 50K later, it was working just like the day I installed it.

    There won’t be any more updates, so I’d give up on that. Microsoft has stopped doing updates on Sync 2 even though some European Fords were still getting it last year. I find it unlikely that upgrading to Sync 3 would even work in a 2011, as it is connected to the APIM for the 3 and the...

    OK- I hate to do this. But I gotta get better headlights in my 2009 EXP

    Did any Expeditions prior to ‘15 come with halogen projectors? I agree with Adieu 100%. The best option as far as light output is concerned is HID projector retrofits in stock-style housings. This is also the most expensive option and it can be difficult to find someone to do them, unless you...

    http://www.chaosfab.com/2004-2008-Ford-F150-Upper-Control-Arm-Suspension-Kit-80501.html I’m assuming that your truck uses the same upper control arm as the 04-08 F-150. This one is not longer than stock, because you can’t change the length of it without wrecking the geometry, but it does have a...
