    Reputable places to buy rims?

    Great site! I got brand new Coopers on my Expy right now. I've never bought rims for any vehicle, they've always been stock. So do I need tires or can I throw these rims on my cooper's until I want to shell out the $ for tires?

    Reputable places to buy rims?

    Looking to upgrade the rims on my '04 XLT in the near future. Just wondering if there are any online places that are reputable? Thanks

    2004 XLT Odometer glass question

    I bought some Mcguires Plastic X and it didn't work. URGH! Read somewhere to try some vinegar and water. I really think it's on the inside but I'm iffy on removing the dash cluster. Maybe I can take it to FORD and they can just replace the plastic at a decent price.

    Vibration and noise!

    UPDATE Saturday I woke up pissed off about the whole situation. I thought to myself why the hell should I have to pay half for these repairs when I just bought the truck!? They told me upon signing several times that the truck had been looked over and checked for any mechanical issues. I went...

    The Shudder

    I've been quoted by the Chevy dealership at $1250 parts and labor for the new torque converter. I know dealerships are higher but is $1250 terrible?

    Vibration and noise!

    OK so they estimated the cost at $1250 and they're willing to do half but they're waiting on the FORD dealership to get back to them to see if it's covered under the drivetrain which it better be! Said the converter alone is $300 which seems a little high but if they're willing to meet me half...

    Vibration and noise!

    I took it to the dealership and yes it's definitely the torque converter. Now I'm just waiting to hear back from them here in the next few min hopefully as far as if they're going to take care of it for me or if I have to pay as the warranty states which is half. Considering it's been 10days I...

    Vibration and noise!

    I thought of that too. I'll only be on the hook for half the cost but considering I've had it a little over a week I'm gonna be a pain in their ass and see if they'll just take care of it. I've always prided myself on getting good deals on good trucks. Doesn't mean I did a bad job on my expy but...

    Vibration and noise!

    Doesnt do it when shifting at all. Does it when I accelerate. Say I'm cruising at about 45mph. Well if accelerate at that speed it happens. Noticed it a littke when accelerating from about 50mph too. Ill make sure to check back here tomorrow and let everyone know what the dealership says.

    Vibration and noise!

    doing a little research I came across this site with people who sound like they're having the exact same issue http://www.fordforum.com/forum/ford-econoline-e-series-18/vibration-about-45-50-mph-when-accellerating-slightly-6101/ I just bought this Expedition a week and a half ago and it's got a...

    Vibration and noise!

    Vibration when accelerating in the 45-50MPH range? Torque Converter? Same issue I had with '02 Exploder. When I'm idling with my foot on the gas in my '04 Expy XLT at about 45mph and then accelerate slightly I get this vibration up front and sounds like when u run over those things some roads...

    Rear climate control (top vents blowing out cold air)

    Heat works fine up front but the vents on the "ceiling" of my '04 XLT are blowing out cold air. Anyone know what could be causing this?

    2004 XLT Odometer glass question

    Not sure. Guess I will try and get to it and if I can't I'll take it to Ford to have it replaced. Can't imagine it costing that much. It's just annoying. I remember when I was in high school I had a Beretta Z-26 and it did the same thing and I can't remember why as that was about 13yrs ago. If...

    2004 XLT Odometer glass question

    If I unscrew the two screws on that part of the dash shouldn't I be able to get the plastic off to clean the inside?

    2004 XLT Odometer glass question

    The plastic/glass cover that goes over all the gauges like odometer, speedometer, etc has some type of film on it on the inside. Maybe due to some kind of moisture? How can I remove the plastic so I can clean it, it's bugging the crap outta me. Thanks!
