    Should I build another supercharged or turbo 1st gen expedition?

    Sorry, I have not been visiting this forum for sometime so unfamiliar with what's going on in the community. Anyone with a 1st generation expedition here have interest in building a supercharged 5.4? I have a 2000 ford expedition that can be found in the following thread. Don't know how many...

    4th Gen expedition 1/4 mile numbers ?!

    Curious if anyone has taken their 4th gen to the track and what kind of numbers they are posting? I know it's not your typical track vehicle but the 3.5 ecoboost is quite capable and responds very well to a tune and mods.

    toms89 - hello, long time no see

    I have not been on the site for quite some time. Separated from the wife and recently purchased a new (to me) home. Still have the expedition but have had zero time to mess with it. Been working on the house in my spare time. It's amazing all the small essentials you collect through the...

    Still alive and well!!

    Have not been on here lately due too life issues. Going through separation / divorce and its been a long ongoing process. The taurus SHO has been my primary means of transportation. The expedition has the engine tick which may be as simple as a bad lash adjuster or potentially a bad valve...

    Go Pro mount works.

    When I have installed my Go-pro outside the vehicle I would tether it to the inside just in case the suction cup failed. Looks like it may be a bit overkill.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASj5b-4l5Kc Broke her back! :eek:

    Expy/lightning opinions wanted!

    I am kind of at a cross roads. I need to pull my motor as I have a 'ticking/knocking' noise that needs to be identified / repaired before it has potential catastrophic failure which could raise the expense considerable depending on the source of course. The body of my expy is quite heavily...

    That could be the problem?!

    I had my brakes lock up on me when I went into reverse after it sat for a few weeks. I felt sure my parking brakes were fudged up but then I felt badly pulsating brake pedal when driving. Rotors / calipers?? So I pull the rear rotors today. One was a biotch. It was so tight the adjuster wheel...

    Expy/lightning issues - Round 2

    After I washed my Expedition yesterday took it for a drive to dry it off. Not particularly hard on it and it just began rapping loudly. Pulling in the driveway, open the hood and it sounds like its coming from the drivers side valve cover area at the front. My guess would be a bad lash...

    Expy died on me today!

    Was on my way to work out and was giving it some gas and felt it miss/sputter accompanied by wildly fluctuating air/fuel ratio?! Then it was normal. Was then stopped at a traffic light and a bit nervous why it may have occurred but appeared ok now. Drive about a 1/4 mile down the road and all...

    Expy/lightning drivetrain issues

    I have been having issues that I thought I would go ahead and post here. The biotch about it is I believe its related to my modifications or as a direct result of them. 1) I have had what I consider a resonance type vibration in the gas pedal that seems to emanate from the floor but not...
