    Radiator Question need an answer

    You won't see a performance difference, but what you will see is if you do any towing or mountain driving your temps will stay lower due to the increased capacity.

    Is it possible to mount lights...

    The best thing to do would be pull off the grille of your Expy and have your self a look. Measure everything out really well to get the alignment that you want and if all you have is the fiberglass support it's ok. Some people use pieces of metal on each side to make the mount stronger...

    From 4'z to 6'z!!!

    I was in a toss up between the Crave and the Godfather's, but I would go the Crave's clean looking and so much easier to keep that way plus they will show off your caliper covers really well!

    expy stock lift?

    Yeah the 4x4's sit much higher than the 4x2's do. Not sure what is up with the expo that you posted the link to, mine sits pretty much level. Here is a pic of my 2wd '02 Eddie Bauer ridding on stock 275/65r17's.

    how will it run with gutted cats

    If I where you I would gut your front 2 so your angle stays the same, and then replace the rear 2 with the cats that you have ( or have some pipe bent up to match the front angle) the o2 is before the cat on the fronts and after on the rears so it really dosn't matter the placement as long as...

    how will it run with gutted cats

    I only have the 2 stock front cats and straight pipe in place of the rears and I still leave chevys (unloaded) off the line when pullin a LOADED 18' trailer. You will not loose a lot on the lower end, but you WILL REALLY gain on the upper end. The high flows should work pretty good, you may...

    how will it run with gutted cats

    My '02 runs 2 1/4" stock pipes and yes the high flows should work with out a problem. You will loose a little power (tq) on the lower end, but it makes up for it in the top end (hp) and a slight fuel economy increase! It will also not shift out of OD as much on slight inclines due to the...

    passenger side exhaust wet with gas

    If the drivers side cats are almost completly plugged then yes there could be enough back pressure on the one bank to make it run like you are discribing. The excess fuel you are seeing in the passanger side exhaust could be what is left over from the poor running conditions just dumping out...

    stuck on 2 decks.

    Agreed Sony products have definatly been lagging. I have noticed that the screens like to lock up or freeze alot too, they are very slow in my opinion. I have always had great luck with Pioneer products, but if I where you go to your local audio shop and play around with all the decks and...

    4x4 conversion possible?????

    I thought about the SAS but i really don't do any major off roading. This is still my family hauler and I do alot of interstate driving, but it would be nice to be able to get to a few of the camp sites that we can no longer get to. Once the days of family hauling are over then I will...

    97 expo not getting right fuel pressure

    In this post you mentioned that you had white smoke while it was running,and now you are saying that inside the cat is wet. If I where you I would be doing a cooling system leak down test because the symptoms you are describing almost sound like you may have a blown head gasket on one bank...

    Electrical cascade of failures??

    The truck may stay in the garage, but when you wash it do you wash it by hand or do you drive it thru a high pressure wash? Sometimes the leak can be bad enough that you will get the water even just by hand washing (desert heat tends to shrink things - I live in southern New Mexico so I am...

    Need Help with Leak

    The intake manifold on the Expi is actually plastic, but in the front of the motor there is an aluminum water/coolant passage (looks like that is where your arrow is pointing) wich has your heater hose and thermostate in it. More than likely it is just a simply gasket repair. should be pretty...

    P Rated Tires for occasional tow?

    The LT tires will have c,d, and e ratings as well but they are a stronger tire. They do require more air pressure in them to achive the higher loads thou so the ride may get a little "stiffer". Most (if not all) tire manufacturers carry a LT series, just talk to a sales person at your local...

    Trailer Length Limits?

    The length of the trailer does not matter as much as the Weight of the trailer. The main thing that you need to watch is the weight of the trailer. According to the owners manual for your Expedition you have a GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating = Expedition + All persons and cargo + trailer)...

    P Rated Tires for occasional tow?

    I run LT 275/60 r 17's on mine and do a considerable amount of towing with it and they hold up fine. The LT's are made for light duty (1/2 ton) trucks and SUV's and with the load you are talking about they will do fine. It won't let me upload any pic's right now but I regularly tow a 18' car...
