    Opinions with pix: New tires too small?

    Indeed, same as I currently have 265/70-16. I will be bumping up the size this summer as they are too small for my taste

    The day has come...

    scared me there, for a minute I thought you were about to say that the 'day has come' that it was time to move on from the Expedition... Glad to see it was quite the opposite. Down side is that the pics reminded me just how badly I need to change up the wheels. The paint on the OE steelie's...

    97 RWD Which Transmission Fluid

    Thanks for clarifying that, I was curious myself but never got around to posting the question. Last time I needed to top up the trans I had a heck of a hard time finding plain old Merc, and if memory serves I actually paid more for it than if I had gone with the V.

    Exhaust Question

    not crazy at all, as long as you have patience and a few hand tools. I suspect the toughest part of the job would be getting the old manifolds off. The bolts tend to rust up and seize - then snap when you try to loosen them. Broken manifold bolts are a pain, but not the end of the world. I...

    Custom Gauge Pods

    Very cool, and looks like good work too. I especially like that they are not the typical a pillar stick on variety, looks far more 'original' and appears to blend well. Looking forward to hearing your feedback.

    DRLs on a 97?

    Now that's probably your best bet. Heck, if someone describes what it looks like and where it is installed in the truck, I'll drive over to the wreckers and try to pick one for you. It's about time I went and looked for a few odds and ends myself...

    DRLs on a 97?

    I would offer to check it out to see how it is installed on mine (a Canadian sold '97), but I do not have functional DRL. Either it failed or it was removed. And I am just fine with that.

    MOOG part vrs "asian specs" MOOG parts

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. While I have not run into `fake` or off-shore made Moog parts, that is indeed a danger with any brand name. Whether it is the manufacturer sending some work over seas to either boost their margin, or a completely different company creating knock offs...

    Want to do my own break work...any good online retailer?

    I've always dealt with RockAuto, have always had what I needed for cheaper than I can source locally. just have to watch shipping on multiple items. They have multiple shipping locations, so often the same order will ship from 2 or 3 warehouses - each with it's own full shipping charge. A guy...
