    Electrical & Relay Experts - Interiror LED Lighting

    The 'switch' part of the relay is between 30 and 87. So on the upper relay 30 and 87 interrupt the + line to the lights. So, of course 30 does not go to ground. There are also some other issues. That I don't have time to go in to right now. So what you want is a master "off" switch and a...

    hot wiring an inline fuel pump?

    To backtrack a bit, you are sure that the pump is getting power, correct? A bad fuel pump relay or tripped inertia switch (or even a blown fuse) can make it seem like the pump is dead.

    hot wiring an inline fuel pump?

    Remember, you can't just put one of those cheap electric fuel pumps for carbs, they don't push enough pressure for fuel injection. At minimum, you'll need something like this. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/atx-e8445 and you may still have to pull the old pump to allow enough fuel flow.

    new front brakes on 97 expedition

    If you have a hissing sound, it is probably coming from the booster or the vacuum line to the booster. There is also a check valve that goes between the booster and the vac line that could be at fault. Since the pedal is hard when the truck is off, I don't think that the master cylinder is...

    OSSS going out?

    It could just be a fluke if it has just happened twice. That new speed sensor could have been bad. But if you have had more than two go bad, I'd start looking at for outside causes. Wiring harness, etc.

    How can i get this out?

    It's so much easier to just replace the hub assembly. If the truck has 140 miles on it, you're probably due.

    Parking Brake Shoes?

    It also sounds like the cable and/or pedal assembly needs to be lubricated. Check the shoes and related springs by removing the rotor. The pads are cheap and easy to replace.

    Rebuild vs buy rebuilt vs pay someone to do it

    If I ever need to do the motor, I'm probably just going to call these guys: Ford 8 Cylinder Engines And then just swap the motors myself. I just don't think that, when it's all said and done, that I'll save any significant money doing it all myself. Plus there's the warranty.

    Crate Motor

    You would definitely need the control pack for the Coyote crate motor. It includes the harness and ecu. It's supposed to be a wide motor, so you may have to do a bit of measuring. From what I've heard, the Ford Motorsport guys are supposed to be pretty helpful with swap info. Contact them...

    6" lift with a4wd ...anyone?

    From what I understand it's a vibration issue. Every lift manufacturer has an "except AWD" note in their application chart. You may need to get a different driveshaft if you get a vibration.

    Possible Issue with ESOF

    Sounds like the center axle disconnect. Often times the steel rod that goes through the aluminum housing will corrode and the lever won't engage (or disengage). Use that camera to see if the lever on the front axle moves when you turn 4wd on and off.

    Monster is definitely the way to go.

    Rear diff oil additive friction modifier

    You'll feel a notchy-ness in the rear if you don't add the modifier to your ls diff.

    Picture Request

    Oh wow. 35" tires with 3.55 gears AND a 4.6L? That puppy won't get out of its own way. You really need 4.30s or even 4.56s if you're going to turn a 35" tire with that setup. Also a 285 75 - 16 is just under a 33" tire.

    Transmission Flush at AAMCO

    You're never going to get every last drop out of the trans, so I wouldn't worry about it. Flushing it 3 times is above an beyond what most places would ever do.

    Expedition Towing Capabilities

    Correct, sometimes you need to stretch the truth about what vehicle is going to be on the trailer. A while back, Uhaul wouldn't rent me a trailer because my tow vehicle was my scout II with a soft top. They said that all tow vehicles need a hard top. Still don't know what difference it makes.

    Stuck Rotors

    WD 40 Rust Release penetrant is the best stuff out there. Soak it front and back and let it sit for an hour. Then go pick up some grade 8 bolts and nuts and try it again.

    How much lift do you guys think 46"s would need?

    I would do a simple mock up using a 46" round piece of plywood and see where the axle would have to be to clear everything.

    LED light mounting

    The only thing I can say is that I've never seen a light bar that wide mounted on the bumper. There's certainly no reason not to mount it down there.

    Bad U-Joint? Bad vibration

    I would change out the rear diff fluid, making sure to add some limited slip additive. Without the additive you can feel some notchy-ness when the one tire breaks loose.

    Front drive shaft disassembly

    Might be a good time to drill and tap a hole in the female side for a zerk fitting.

    ******4l not disengaging.. *******

    4Lo really has little to do with the vacuum solenoids. You really want to be looking at the transfer case shift motor and the associated relays.
