    Replace towing hitch... with what?

    Ok, a flimsy step thing wouldn't do. But a more robust construction ala Static54:s example would do the job AND protect the rear.

    Replace towing hitch... with what?

    Due swedish regulations im only allowed to pull 1653,467 pounds (!)... some stupidity because of the Expeditions total weight. I will only use the hitch when im moving garbage to the waste separation facility. So... im thinking of making it detachable and put something more fun in place...

    rear ac lines dimensions?

    Finally a got the opportunity to lend a friends car lift (and his expertise!) We just removed the muffler and heat shield (not easy to reach the bolts!) and removed the clamp. A small hole (salt corrosion?) could be identified. Cleaned the line and used a cutter. Mounted the Dorman 800-640...

    4A 4H 4HL indicator lamp?

    Hm.. nope, no sign of it. Mysterious. The track control symbol can be seen when disengaged. So that part of the cluster should work.

    4A 4H 4HL indicator lamp?

    I bought my 2007 expy this spring, and I realized that i haven't touch the 2-4w knob yet! I fiddle with it and the it was noticeable when the that it was working when I turned to 4H (short test). So far so god, I'm prepared for muddy autumn and snowy winters. But shouldn't it be some form of...

    Expedition and real cold winters

    Good to hear... -30F is very rare at my latitude, you have to move up to the northern parts of sweden for these temps! And yes... I have a block heater. Fortunately, the previous owner had that and the optional heated front seats option when he bought it new in californa :-) I look forward to a...

    Expedition and real cold winters

    Im wondering how the Expedition gen 3 cope with hard winters. Can the optional rear climate system provide enough heat? With the lines going outside beneath the frame? Here in Sweden, in my area, the temperature is often down to 5 ºF can fall to -4 ºF and even lower shorter periods. Real life...

    rear ac lines dimensions?

    I got under the car today and managed both to take a pic and some measuring. 15.5 (roughly) mm will match 5/8 i suppose. One of the wider tubes seems to be leaking, and the clamp is the villain!! If i guess... could it be the low pressure return who is leaking, and the other two is for heat. I...

    rear ac lines dimensions?

    I found the leak in the rear A/C lines, near the muffler. I think I'm gonna try to mount a line splice, like this: AirSept/3/8 in. o.d. line splice kit for A/C, heater, transmission and power steering line repair - Do not use on brake or fuel lines (76002) | Line Splice | AutoZone.com But...

    What did you do to the expy today

    I decided to give the girl some rust protection treatment. The frame looks rather nice now... hopefully it will look that way even some years from now ;)

    Drops of brake fluid!? 2007 Expedition.

    Still no sign of further leakage... and the I checked the old stains on ground. They had dried up... but the rag looked a bit yellow/green perhaps. I will take a longer trip tomorrow and monitor the level. Its shit to have a malfunction AC when the summer, for once, is hot in Sweden :D

    What did you do to the expy today

    I replaced my extra reverse tail lights to a sleeker halogen model with real glass. The original reverse lights is not valid in Sweden, and you must have extra lights mounted. Im pleased anyway...

    Drops of brake fluid!? 2007 Expedition.

    Now i get confused... no problems with the brakes when I took a trip for shopping. No drops on the parking space. I placed some newspaper strategical when i arrived home again. Still no sign of leakage. ...but the A/C has stopped working. Is it coolant lines that i see at the frame beside the...

    Drops of brake fluid!? 2007 Expedition.

    I just noticed small pools of something that could be brake fluid (clear oil) in front of left wheel... near the muffler. I crawled under for a look. The metal lines that vanish up were a bit smudgy. But not much. I have not removed the wheel yet to inspect. Could it be a loose connection? But...
