    Cutting Spring To Lower My Dads Expy

    I think the lowest you'll be able to find is a 2" drop for the rear. You can get up to a 3" drop in the front but I think 2" in the rear is the max, without going to bags. Victor Freeway- I wonder if the front will settle more than the back because of the weight of the motor and bring it down...

    Suggestions on cleaning chrome wheels

    I ended up using #0000 steel wool to clean off the surface spots and polish it then used Eagle One Nevr Dull. I was hesitant at first with taking steel wool to them but it did wonders. It is a great way to clean chrome rims and I will probably do this periodically to make sure they don't ever...

    biggest tires on stock 1998 exp?

    The 70 and 75 is the ratio between the 285mm width and the height of the sidewall. So 70 is 70% of 285 and 75 is 75%, so on a 285 that 5% is about 14 mm difference in height. I think this is correct if I understand it all, but I may be wrong. This is just how I understand tire sizes to be...

    conversion swap

    Yeah, I knew you bought your already and if you part it out, it is a lot cheaper. I was just thinking there may be some people who want something they don't have to disassemble and mix a conversion kit with the drop springs and just have the ease of pulling out the old and putting in the new...

    conversion swap

    I know they are over the price range you wanted to stay at but being complete with the drop springs already this would have been the easiest way to do the conversion with a drop. It's all in one package. Navigator/Expedition 2003-2006 High Performance Coil Over Conversion Kit : Amazon.com ...

    Looks good but I agree a little lift would look awesome. Something along these lines would look good. Victor

    24's??????

    Where did you buy yours? And what did you pay, if you don't mind me asking(springs and install)? I'm getting ready to pull the trigger and have Chux Trux order and install those exact springs and don't want to get screwed. I know I will pay a little more there than ordering of the internet...

    offset

    +40 I think Victor Edit: Actually I think it's +44 but a lot of aftermarket rims will be in +40 which is close enough.

    Best Hlamp bulb non-hid?

    I liked the Sylvania SilverStar lights before I went HID. Is there a reason you don't want to go with an HID? I picked up my kit off of eBay for about $45 shipped, had it installed in about 20 minutes, and haven't had any issues. It took longer figuring out how to remove the headlight than it...

    Edge Tuner

    I called them earlier this week and was told that none of their products work for the 03-06 Expy's. I had a deal lined up to buy one off of a friend for $100 and passed after I called and they said no. Damn, I missed on that deal. Oh well. Victor

    Suggestions on cleaning chrome wheels

    So I just got some new to me chrome OEM 22's. The previous owner didn't keep up with cleaning them and even when he took them off for storage in his garage just stacked them with brake dust and all. So of course there is a little pitting and dark spots that didn't just clean right off. What...

    Another new set of wheels already

    In just the jump from 17's to 20's I saw maybe 1.5mpg but on a vehicle that gets 15 on a good day that's 10%. I don't drive too much and in this cold have the car idling for probable 40 minutes a day so my mileage isn't all that accurate. We'll see how it does going to 22's. Victor

    Another new set of wheels already

    So I bought a set of 20's less than 2 weeks ago and I already replaced them with something bigger. I put these on after I bought them off Craigslist with tires for $300. After having my stock wheels and tires on Craigslist for that whole time asking $350 and only having 1 person even call...

    What did you do to the expy today

    I put some Ford OEM 22" wheels and tires on that I just got off of Craigslist. A guy that drives 40,000 miles a year for work took them off of his Expy and put stock 17's on. I ended up trading my stock wheels and tires for these. A straight across trade. It's amazing what you can get on...

    what if the life range of the convertors

    Mine where bad at 120,000. Even bad they can pass a pressure test. Mine were breaking down inside and the front converter that was bad was clogging the rear converter and on the other side the rear converter was bad and was blowing chunks into the muffler. The two bad ones were almost hollow...
