    2nd Gen Expedition with rear airbags

    Has anyone installed them and what are your post install thoughts? Did it improve handling, turning and body roll? Any wet traction improvements? Which ones did you go with?

    I'm pretty new but not new to car and truck mods

    Okay, all fixed PLUS one of the caliper retaining springs broke so those were replaced. Thank you for the heads up... I mixed them up and went with what looked logical.

    I'm pretty new but not new to car and truck mods

    I have noticed that they do stop the truck better and even the pedal feel improved but that is most likely because of new rotors/pads which could be any rotor/brake combo. In my case, the truck had a dead spot when I applied the brake in a sudden and emergency fashion so this was an upgrade...

    CAN'T WAIT for THURSDAY!!!

    The key is the prep of the dirty calipers. I used both brake cleaner and caliper cleaner that I found in the automotive paint area along with scrubbing with an old toothbrush. In hindsight (and if I had thought about it before) I should have done a pre cleaning by soaking with a HD pump spray...

    CAN'T WAIT for THURSDAY!!!

    They (Plasti-Dip) called me back and they advised me of the exact temperature extremes it is tested for but... called me WHILE I was doing the brakes so it was moot but if I remember right, up to somewhere in the 400 degree range. I've used Plasti-Dip before for rims and trim. I have even...

    CAN'T WAIT for THURSDAY!!!

    I decided to give the Plasti-dip a try. Worst case scenario, I peel it and try another option.

    Real User Advice: ** Hi-Output Alternator **

    I've just always been of the thought process that it's better to have and not need than to need and not have.

    I also just created an album full of pics of my drilled/slotted rotor upgrade I did a couple of days ago. I'll answer any questions I can.

    Real User Advice: ** Hi-Output Alternator **

    My truck may be needing a replacement alternator soon. I have a 2003 EB 2WD 5.4 Expo. Which of you, my fellow Expo owners are running a Hi-Output alternator? What brand? What warranty? How much? Pros: Cons: Thank you in advance.

    I am referring to the courtesy lights on the outside mirrors. I need to tap into the wire that is fed power when using the keyless entry and the interior/exterior courtesy lights all come on. Yes, I can understand them but cannot find one.

    I need to A. Tap into existing wire that feeds the courtesy light on the mirrors and B. Run wiring for an LED lightbar so... HOW THE HECK do I get the kick panels off??! BTW, does anyone KNOW which wire powers the courtesy lamps in the mirrors?

    CAN'T WAIT for THURSDAY!!!

    Update with pics I haven't installed it yet. Had stuff come up on my days off and then, due to weather looking to switch to winter fast. I put my drilled/slotted rotors and caliper paint job on the To Do NOW list. I did manage to snap a few 'test run' pics of the lightbar sitting on the fan...

    CAN'T WAIT for THURSDAY!!!

    I'm going to install it high up behind the grille so it's hidden and protected from easy theft (Superimposed in pic) And, with a little trimming. These should fit in place of the stock fog lights!

    Do your adjustable pedals work right?

    Let me know when you have some inventory. My 2003 Expo pedals barely move.

    What did you do to the expy today

    What did I do to my Expo today Washed her. I swapped out the interior dome lighting for red LED bulbs. Prepped the new drilled/slotted rotors.
