    need all of your oponions on a new intake

    I had the Volant on an 03 Screw and did not realize what a difference it made until I took it off. I am considering one for my 06, but I may be upgrading expys soon. I have never used the true flow-but was very happy with the Volant (aside from the fact that the directions were horrible). Hope...

    OEM ties with 35K miles on it... Time to change ?

    mine had 44k and did not need to be replaced. But we were starting to travel some (by expy), so I put the Michelins on. I am not positive that mine were the originals though.

    Just Bought a used Ford Expy Eddie Bauer 2006

    I am an 06 also, I will try to look at my fuses tomorrow and see if there is a specific one for the charger ports. I have not popped any of mine that I recall though so can't guide you on it, but will definitely look. Thanks and welcome, Mike.

    tires

    Michelin LTX M/S2 - I have these on mine and could not be happier with them. But I am 90% on road. I have had them through two rainy seasons here in FL and very happy with the way they hold the road - even pulling into traffic on wet roads in my non-LSD 4x4 Expy (still no clue why it was ordered...

    What do you think about this color combo for 2012?

    would not be my choice. But I am a UF fan (orange and blue) and am driving an Expy that is garnet and gold (FSU) colors. I never get to hear enough of that from my little brother, an FSU grad. I don't dislike those colors - but would not choose them.

    what price did you pay for your expy?

    13k about 2 years ago. Had 30k miles. Now has about 67k and still loving it, but may be moving to a newer model soon to get the 6-speed and out of 4wd - - - Let the blasting begin, but have only used the 4wd a few times (and probably never needed).

    Question about Headlamp bulbs / stock wiring

    I am running Philips Ultra and happy with them. Have not made the jump to HID yet. The Philips give a much wider view. I actually picked them up at my local Kmart, so figured I could return them if I did not like them. Like your username by the way - great movie. Good luck - sorry I can not...

    overhead console door

    Actually just fixed last nite. Not to sure about endless possibilities, but a salvage yard a few hours away posted one on eBay. So if anybody needs a shroud for an Expy, minus the sunglass holder, I have one. I may start messing around with it some though and decide if I can do any cool stuff to...

    Wheelskins

    Thanks guys - might have to try it out. the Target solution is shoddy looking and not real comfortable (but better than it was). Thanks, Mike.

    Wheelskins

    DFS5.4 - are these things really worth $55. I aske because I just threw a $10 Target cover on mine because my factory leather one is all beat up. I am not real happy with it - but I looked at one of those lace up ones that someone recommended on this site (much cheaper I think) - but my wife...

    Direct Fit-Backup Camera

    yes - former military. I have the street scene hitch cover also (or a knock off, came with the expy) but leave the hitch in all of the time now. I may gor for that replacement light one - just trying to remember how far up I extended my cables and how much of a PIA it will be to get back to the...

    Direct Fit-Backup Camera

    WHOISMOOTOO - where did you find one with grid lines for $20 - or is that built in to the head unit. I am running a kenwood but could not find a reasonably priced one with grid lines. I have about a $25 camera on me and it has worked awesome - but mine is up at the top of the plate. Thanks, Mike

    overhead console door

    thanks guys - for some reason the new site is not emailing me when there are replies. Definitely will keep checking the boneyards and try the two sites listed. Just one little irritating thing, but was hoping to find an easy (less expensive) solution. Gonna try silconing the old one back...

    overhead console door

    anybody know where I can find a replacement door for the sunglass holder. It kept falling down so I bent it with my thumb (knowing how this would end) it broke. Now I can not get just the door, I have to buy the entire overhead console p/n 519A70 according to the ford site. Any ideas from you...

    Your Opinion and expertise please

    I don't think that sounds real unreasonable. I am amazed that you found one with that low of mileage. Spark pulgs is one thing (debating this on mine currently at 63k), sway bar ends - common for breaking but inexpensive fix, make sure you check all functions of the front and rear ac, TPMS...

    Mirror Replacement

    I misunderstood - mine the mirror glass just pulled right off (felt like it was going to break. There are two ball-type snaps that hold it on (or one) can't remember. Look at the back of the new glass and it will kind of show it. Then there is two spot where the piston things adjust the mirror...

    HHO generator for gas mileage?

    Not sure if they work or not (only read a little bit on them). But, a mechanic buddy of mine tried it on his 05 Navigator and could never get the computer to operate/compensate for it. I think he ended up abandoning the project and probably still has the mason jar under his hood. Good luck -...

    Mirror Replacement

    also search koolvue or kool vue mirrors on ebay. I ended up buying the whole mirror assembly for my 03 Screw (should be the same body style) for less than just the mirror glass from Ford. Good luck, Mike

    Tires

    Running michelin ltx ms/2 on mine. I believe 265x70x18. Good, well-rounded tire with 70k warranty. Mine is predominantly street driven though.

    Towing with Standard towing and 3:31 gears?

    Here is some info i picked up either from this forum or another on the 7-pin conversion. This is for an 04 and I still have not done it on my 06, but hopefully it is similar and may give you some guidance. The brake wire was deifinitely back there for mine. Hope it helps, remember it comes via...

    Anybody order from sonicelectronixs.com??

    another positive shopping experience. Bought my kenwood ddx-514, pac-swi, kenwood bt-200 and it came with dash kits in wire harness. I really did not have to communicate with them because it went flawlessly. I did call them to place the order though to make sure that I got the right wiring...
