    New shoes...

    I agree I don't care for the stick on stuff but some people like it. For me I am trying to stay away from to much chrome the only chrome I like is the bumbers and hopefully soon I will be able to get my 22" shoes ( hopefully before baby number 2 gets here in march ) :D Here are the ones I am...

    New shoes...

    If your looking for more chrome and on a tight budget check out ebay. They have the chrome mirror covers, door handles, and door pillars, they are stick on's but will give you more chrome for cheap. You can also pickup billit grilles on ebay for pretty cheap ( I found a replacement billit not...

    2003 5.4 cranks but won't start

    Check out this link : 2003 Expedition no fuel pressure http://www.fordf150.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=82501 By the looks of the above thread they had the same problem, and the R203 is only part of the problem. There is another relay R303 which is actually soldered on the back of...

    Mpg?

    For me it depends on how hot the day is. All I have done to my 5.4L is the CAI and wrapped it to keep temps down and the Flowmaster which when I put that on I eliminated the factory Y and run a 2I/1O Flowmaster. Most summer days on the interstate @ 75mph I get 15 but on a day like today where...

    This is getting old quick!!!

    That is weird I will have to try that out on mine tomorrow and see if it makes a difference. Which vacuum line did you try? As for the COP's if you are questioning the boots, I have seen them for like $5 a piece. But for me I would just order a set off Ebay, I have heard alot of people...

    Changing Headlight units

    They actually come out really easy. Lift the hood and look directly down on the top of the headlight, you will see two black pieces of metal with a little bit of a handle on them. Grab both at the same time and pull up while wigling them ( they will not come all the way out but will come up...

    Suspension Question...

    I had been having the same problem with the chattering and had changed the gear oil with some Valvoline synthetic and two of the 4oz bottles of modifier and the rear end still chattered. After talking with a few people and doing some research I decided to go ahead and try the Royal Purple and...

    2003 Six CD changer problem

    The pioneer 6 disk changer using the IP Bus system fits perfectly in the same spot in the console, and you can even still use the factory trim. I had to do a little trimming on the trim to get it to fit ( need to make the hole a bit longer ) but with a sharp razor and a lighter to heat the...

    This is getting old quick!!!

    Carefully with the truck running pull the electrical conector off one coil at a time, if the coil is good you will notice the rpms drop and it will start stumbling but if the coil is bad there will be no change at all because that cylendar is not firing anyway. Hook the plug back up and go to...

    Forward Expansion Valve

    BEFORE you use the R409 you BETTER MAKE SURE THE OILS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH R134A. It is a direct drop in for R12 but R12 and R134A use two different oils that are NOT compatible with each other. You may cause your self problems in the long run. Just do your self a favor and make sure you check...

    2004 ?

    My 02 5.4L EB is around 107*** and no problems other than regular maintance. As long as you maintain it I have seen many people with 200+ to 300+ on their expy's. Also you can not beat the room and comfort of the expy. But I agree with fiveohpoepoe personal preference and also get as many...

    2000 Exp, what is this?

    Yeah that is the ride height sensor and if you do not plan on going back to air you can take it off but it dosn't matter either way.

    Good non expensive wiring kit?

    That kit that I am running from walmart is actually 4AWG they actually have really decent wire in that kit because of the power cap. I have been running this kit now for a number of years and in multiple setups up to running 2 1000W mono class D amps and a 500W 4ch all on the same 4 Gauge wire...

    Head Unit Problem....

    There are two ways you could go, you can either run all new wire from the deck to the doors and bypass the factory wiring for the speakers. Or the best way is to get an after market 4chanel amp and run it off the RCA output on your new HU, then run new speaker wire from where you mount the amp...

    2003 expedition noise

    I would have to say I don't think that is the cats that sounds more of a metal on metal. That and their is not enough room for that "honey comb" to move around that much to make that kind of sound inside a cat. I would take it to a different mechanic because I think that one is trying to RAKE...

    2004 Factory Eddie Bauer wheels/tires

    Since you are in Texas and not in snow country you wouldn't have to worry about it unless you change out your rims in the winter months like all the people up north have to do.

    #15608 Magnaflow Cat-back

    I stayed with the 2.5" pipe but cut out the factory Y and installed the Flowmaster 524703 it is the 70 series so not really loud but still sounds good. By putting this in and getting rid of that Y I picked up 100 miles to the tank (but only if I can keep my foot out of it, which can be hard...

    Battery Done?!?!

    I have had a few batteries give out with no warning at all so I would say yes it is possible, even thou it really sucks because it is always bad timing. As for the optima a lot of people swear by them but I don't really see the need unless you live in extreme temperatures (cold or hot) or if...

    Tricks on removing exhaust

    The muffler attaches to the factory Y pipe with a clamp mine was really rusted, but with some spray lube ( I used PB Blaster) and a rubber dead blow hammer we where able to seperate it without destroying it. As for the rubber hanger mounts again alot of the PB Blaster, a couple of screw drivers...

    Good non expensive wiring kit?

    I know walmart used to and I think might still sell a kit with power capacitor for about $80 it comes with all 4 GA power and ground leads, the remote wire, RCA's, the .5 farad power cap, and the maxi fuse. I have been runnin this setup and pushing two 12" with no problems at all and plenty of...
