    Fuel problem, I think.

    Not the exact same symptoms that were on my wife's '98 but similar. Her's would start but if you didn't have your foot on the pedal it would immediately die. It ended up being the Idle Air Control valve. Less than $50 and about 5 minutes and it was fixed and has been running smooth ever...

    conversion swap

    I did a little more searching and the same air bag setup is used in both the 2nd gen Expy's and the '07-08's. Also I found some air spring to coil conversions that use the same springs so it seems like they might work. If I had an extra $600 I'd try it because I'd like that extra drop but...

    conversion swap

    I think the only two sets that are available for our 2nd gen's are the Eibach #3597.54 set which is a 1.8"/1.6" drop that you can find for under $300 or the Ground Force #9968 set that is a full 2"/2" drop for almost twice as much. Victor

    REALLY wide tires...

    I think you may be able to fit them. You are looking at less than 2 inches difference in width, so less than and inch on each side. Plus if you add some 1/2" spacers your looking at less than a half of an inch on the inside. I would use your current setup and take your wheels from lock to...

    Just installed a Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD

    I know I used an ISO style dash kit since it allows the double din's to sit more flush. Let's see some pic's. Victor

    Just installed a Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD

    Cool. For $200 you really can't beat it for what you get, with a double din dvd player. I know it lacks HD radio, bluetooth, nav and some other stuff, but it's many times better than stock. And it will hold me over for awhile so I can get my lowering springs, new amps and speakers and a sub...

    Just installed a Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD

    Just got a new Pioneer head unit, model AVH-P1400DVD. Best Buy had them for $200 this week and for that price you can't really go wrong. It has a 5.8" touchscreen with front usb and audio input jack. It is their low end head unit, so if you want Nav, bluetooth, HD radio or Sat radio you have...

    Won't stay running

    It was the Idle Air Control valve. About $45 and 10 minutes and it's running as good as new. Thanks Victor

    Won't stay running

    I have a 1998 with the 5.4L that has been running great until today. It ran fine this morning and then this afternoon it started and then died. Since then, it will start and then die. You can keep your foot on the gas to keep the rpms up but as soon as you let off it will die. I checked the...

    SuperChips and disabling fuel system?

    I just got an older SuperChips 1715 for my 03 and I'm trying to get it all hooked up. It says I need to disable the fuel system. I can't seem to find the auxiliary fuse box so I can pull the fuel pump fuse? Or is there some othr way that you guys did this? Thanks in advance. Victor

    03 with a bad catalytic converter

    I have a 2003 with the 4.6L that is throwing the PO430 code(Catalyst system efficiency below threshold Bank 2). Now I have read that these have a pre-cat then the cat and was wondering if anyone had a picture of the pre-cat? Can I just remove the pre-cat and replace it with pipe when I replace...

    Cheapest Way to Get a Spare Key?

    I just went through this and this is what I found around me. The dealer wanted $130 to cut a second key and reprogram both my existing key and the new one. A local locksmith did it for $65. I then bought 2 off of ebay for under $20 and had the local locksmith cut them for $10 and then...

    ?s about lowering an 03 4x4

    I decided just to stick with the Eibach. I can put that money towards other things. I've got my tint, alarm/remote start and lowering kit ordered. Now on to the wheels and an in-dash navigation system. Thanks for all the input. Victor Here's my brothers truck that got lowered last weekend.

    ?s about lowering an 03 4x4

    So now I have a problem. I ordered the Eibach kit and now I find a Ground Force kit that is supposed to be a full 2" drop. But it's $200 more for less than 3/8". Is the Ground Force a better quality set of springs? I've heard of Eibach suspension stuff before but not Ground Force. If it's...

    ?s about lowering an 03 4x4

    So I got the wife's blessing and have ordered the Eibach kit above. I was wondering if I need new rear shocks for that little of a drop? Or should I just go ahead and replace them while I'm there even if they don't need it right now? What brands do you suggest? Thanks Victor

    ?s about lowering an 03 4x4

    Now before I go getting any hate mail I will say that while I am lowering my 03, and yes, it is 4wd, I will be raising my 98 shortly also. Both are 4wd, I just think the 98 looks better raised than lowered and the 03 has a more lowered ride look to it. I don't want to do anything drastic, just...
