    Round thing is the blower motor for rear heat/AC. Pipes are A/C refrigerant lines. Hoses are for rear heat. Hoses will be hot whenever truck is running as engine coolant always circulates thru them. As to the 4x4, there is a motor on the transfer case that the knob on the dash controls for...

    http://www.motorcraftservice.com/pubs/content/~WOXEXD/~MUS~LEN/41/99exdog1e.pdf Page 6 shows the location of the "4x4" and "Low Range" indicators in the upper right of the instrument cluster. Possibly a burned-out bulb? Looking under the front of the truck would clearly reveal the front drive...

    No Heat

    Assuming this is manual controls, this developed on my 99. The temp control would be hard to turn to the point it split the back of the knob where the shaft inserted. I bought a replacement "pot" and knob, removed the control panel from the dash and changed it. The "temp." and "fan" have...

    Is there a common coolant leak spot on passenger side rear of the motor?

    There is a tool that looks like an "L"-shaped, 2-prong fork that slides over those firewall fittings which releases the clips and provides a way to pull the hoses off. If you look on the beginning part of this video (2:40) F150 Heater Core part 1 - YouTube you will see the fellow do it. No...

    Is there a common coolant leak spot on passenger side rear of the motor?

    Heater Core is first guess, which could run out the a/c drain onto the ground, but the trucks with rear heat/air were known to develop a leak near the "T" fitting in the heater hoses which would drip on cylinder #4 cop and take it out.

    Anyone have a Gibson catback?

    I have the Gibson single in - dual out cat-back system on my 99 XLT 4.6. Fit perfect, has a nice sound to it. Slightly deeper than stock. Tailpipes exit behind rear tires (each side). Came with chrome tips which I didn't care for so I put some old-school turndowns on it. I am pleased with the...

    Is my front end correct?

    Just noticed you have tow hooks. If you do this, you would have to specify a valence for fogs and tow hooks, so all the holes would be there. When these trucks were new, 4 different valences were available dependng on the options. 1. No hooks, no fogs (no holes), 2. hooks but no fogs (what you...

    Is my front end correct?

    That picture is a 99-02 front end. The fog lights would be in the plastic valence below the bumper on those years. Requires a change of the valence to add fogs, there are no cutouts in that valence. Wiring might be there, it was on my truck (99 XLT), fuse and relay were present too I only...

    Pout pout pout I am sad

    My 99 4.6 is on its 3rd head gasket for that oil leak on the passenger side. First time under regular warranty, Ford told the dealer to replace the engine without even a teardown. Next 2 they dinged me $100 deductible under my extended warranty to replace gasket, and it's leaking again...

    Water in the valley of COPS!

    When you say left side, do you mean passenger? The 1st generations with rear heat/air have a "T" conection in the heater hose above the pass-side cam cover. They were notorious for leaking and dripping on the rear COP and taking it out.

    Recommend A Cat-Back Exhaust

    I put this Gibson kit on my 99 XLT 4.6 in August. Fit perfect, has a nice sound. Came with chrome tips. (Searched on Amazon.com and found it for about 350.00 shipped if I remember right).

    Console

    The 2000 models lost the fold-down armrests on the seats so the top of the console and lid became the armrest and was wider. At some point, I think on the sunroof models, the rear heat/ac controls made their way down to the center console. Don't know if the floor mounting changed or not.

    2000 XLT expedition rehabilitation thread

    Correct, find a rubber grommet for it. I think that hole is utilized on the pick-ups that have manual transmissions for the the clutch gimmick.

    will f150 exhaust kits/ tail pipes fit expedition?

    I'm with Freeway. I just put a Gibson cat-back SI-DO system for an Expedition on my 99 Expy. Bolted right on, fit perfect. Someting to remember, F150's have LEAF springs in the rear, Expeditions have COILS, rear Heat-A/C plumbing, floor pan vs. pick-up bed so no doubt there could be...

    interior lights

    The Crown Vic police vehicles have a single wire connector under the dash on the passenger side that enables "dark-car-mode". I forget which way is which, you unplug it to keep the interior lights off with open doors, or the other way around. Poke around under the dash for a connector that...

    Looking for Advice!!

    Just put this system on my 99 XLT 4x4 4.6 last month. Super easy and fit perfect. Has a nice sound, just a little more than stock. I wasn't crazy about the chrome tips so I did some turndowns. I need to get some pix. Bought mine on Amazon.com for 360.00 if I remember right. MPG went from...
