    Why can't my Expy stop like a Chevy?? Booster issue?

    Every forum has it's share a Jackwagons..... What did I say, that I don't want to own a GM or that Fords have more than their share of issues? Comprehend much? If if you're referring to the bailouts and you're a liberal who thinks we did an awesome thing, any more replies to your posts would...

    Why can't my Expy stop like a Chevy?? Booster issue?

    Their braking systems are irrelevant to my question... Why when I pump the pedal, the second push is nearing only as good as other vehicles first push? Owned it for 2 years... done nothing and nothing has changed... Was accepting this until I drove these other vehicles that have far superior...

    Why can't my Expy stop like a Chevy?? Booster issue?

    Really? 2014 1500s Just drove mother-in-laws 13 Equinox, another vehicle that will send you through the windshield just touching the brakes. Been reading up. Plan on adjusting the booster plunger rod behind the MC a little so it sets up faster.

    Why can't my Expy stop like a Chevy?? Booster issue?

    My boss has two new Chevy pickups and when I drive either of them, they stop with so much more booster power than my expy.... Is the expy designed to stop OK with the first pedal push, then when you pump it, like my dads old 78 half ton ford, the second time to set the pedal up and stop much...

    There are three Expys in our family and two more where I work. All have hood and tailgate issues both. As a matter of fact, I literally can not find a single Expy that I can't find bubbling if I look close for it. Walk past one at the mall? hey, sure enough, bubbling...

    Air Suspension Off warning

    Nope. Just don't need the truck changing heights and the compressor running all the time. It still load levels so I'm good.

    Air Suspension Off warning

    I'm tired of always pushing the reset button to clear the "Air Suspension Off" statement in the drivers information center. Is there a way to make this stay off? No, I will not accept "turn it back on" as a viable answer, but thanks. :facepalm:

    Can 2008 be raised a few inches? Inexpen$ively?

    People say no, but there is a way to do anything and when I figure it out, I'll post how. From the little time I've looked, the front should just need the spacers, the rear spacers and a few other parts. The bigest thing I think is changing the leveling tie rod lengths to the A-arms to "fool"...

    2012 Ford Expedition Intake

    I've had the K&N for 6 months. Love the sound. Just need a programmer to bad throttle response off the line. I added 6" diameter flexible tubing from the airbox hole in the inner fender, down behind the headlight, down into the lower bumper cover area and put a PVC elbow on the end. 10 mph...

    Power running board broken arm casting.

    The guy that made mine was a friend of mine that works at a shop. He made the replacement shaft from SS stock he had laying around. To get the arm off the lower, I used a thin sawzall blade and cut between the arm and the step bracket, you could never get the shaft out of the assembly while...

    Some guy backed into me and ripped mine. XLT, Limited, King Ranch CL1Z17D957BPTM oem painted G3 Pueblo Gold would be great! Primed from ford is $232, but would rather have factory paint. Thanks!

    Power running board broken arm casting.

    That is how it actually broke apart, but I did figure out later that it was already cracked because of the scenario I just described. I dont think stepping on it in other positions would break a good part, but I wouldn't want to try it either...

    Power running board broken arm casting.

    No, it broke because someone beat on the end of the shaft and mushroomed it larger. When I tapped it out, that larger diameter expanded that thin aluminum casting and cracked it. When the wedge block was tightened later, it just broke the whole thing apart.

    Power running board broken arm casting.

    For those that want to take the gearbox out, open it, clean, and repack with grease. Remember the wedge block is what ties the power board arm to the motor shaft. In order to get the motor out, after removing it's mounting bolts, the wedge block needs to be removed by backing the screw out about...

    TSB for replacing the blower control module?

    Based on reading through the actual provided TSB, I'd say no. Where it blows is not probably not related to how fast it blows. The best way is to bring it to your dealer, get it diagnosed and get a quote to fix it.

    TSB for replacing the blower control module?

    Update. 1) The old part number 7C3Z-19E624-C has been replaced by 9L3Z19E624B and no longer requires the rewiring TSB in previous posts. 2) $52 from Tousely Ford 3) TSB's are NEVER paid for by the dealer unless you are within your factory warranty, extended warranty that may have been added...

    TSB for replacing the blower control module?

    Do I really have to do do this TSB? Per the dealer, I ordered part 9L3Z19E624B which is not the number in this TSB, but I thought I'd ask. Did they upgrade the part? TSB 08-9-1 EATC BLOWER INTERMITTENTLY INOPERATIVE - STUCK ON HIGH/OFF Publication Date: April 17, 2008 FORD:2007-2008...

    K&N Cold Air intake

    The air flowing through the tube changing temperature because of the compartment temperature heat transfer is negligible in comparison to even the slightest gap in the open air box setup where the new open filter can pull hot air from that same engine compartment. I've seen some new Kamaros...

    Does anyone else hate Ford seatbelts?

    Just like the media, your pole results are skewed. I'll get pictures and video to prove it if I have to. I took some time to seriously evaluate it last night and it only pissed me off how avoidably stupid this whole design/situation is.

    Does anyone else hate Ford seatbelts?

    You guys with no issues obviously don't know any better. I'm not so Blue blooded to admit the other manufacturers have Ford beat in this area.
