    To Sell or not to Sell...

    I am interested in the Grand Wagoner as it claims 9850lbs tow. Interior is awesome and big. I just need to see it in real life. One pics it looks cool. Others it looks like a bloated liberty and no turbos or supercharger. I can see them putting the hellcat motor in one very soon.

    CCD Lift

    How big a lift are you thinking about? Most kits 4” and above you have to drop the front diff down and use drop spindles. It keeps the upper A-arms in a close to stock location and angle. Spacer lifts 3” and under change the A-arm angle way more than a legitimate lift kit. The member Meikk could...

    To Sell or not to Sell...

    I love my Expy, it has been amazing so far. I picked it because of the room, towing numbers and the EcoBoost. The old saying "there's no replacement for displacement" is gone in the modern engine world. I don't live and play at sea level. That being said, if I get the cam phaser problem I...

    Adjustable CCD Sensor Links

    All four factory links are the same length. Go with 0.50” shorter on the front and 0.50” longer on the rear. If I remember right the factory link are 4" center to center. I can't remember what member posted about the dealership doing a ride height/CCD recalibration. I want to have this done to...

    I knew someone would point those out. Does it help that their “off-road sandals?

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Yes, it it says parking aid fault on the dash every time you start it. At Radom times it shows a picture of the expedition with the warning sign on the entertainment screen. I will get the sensors back on. Shouldn’t be to hard to print mounts and relocate them.

    Transmission overheating after service

    I pull my boat, that’s almost 7K loaded out at 80 mph in Nevada heat (100+)for the last two years and have never had it get into the yellow. So close but never to limp mode. Something is not right with yours. Only thing I had overheating was my tires and wheel bearings.

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Yes, the tow hooks are gone. LGE-CTS said they are working on a skid plate and hooks that would work. I don’t think it would take much to built a longer hook and cut an opening in the skid. I will probably built a longer plate with a hole to hang a shackle on each side. Keep The shackles off...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Its like adding the FX4 skid plate and getting 15 degrees better approach angle and bumper all in one. So you could ask Ford why they added the skid too the FX4. Probably all the CAC plumping, wires and front diff.

    Just bought 2021 Expedition Max Platinum

    Welcome to the forum. My Expy tows my boat like a beast. I would recommend a Weigh Safe hitch as Ford does not provide ball and hitch, Hellwig sway bars and Sumo Spring helpers. And yes, if you're a boater you want to get rid of the double honk ASAP. In and out at the gas station and dock it...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    The bumper is very solid and strong. You still keep the factory crash bar but this will add some good crash protection and coverage for the radiator and CAC. I have taken it on the freeway up to 90 MPH. I could not detect any new air or road noise. It will be interesting if this affects my...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    It looks like you will have to take the skid plate off to get to the oil filter. It's going in for service next week. We will see if the tech's complain.

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    The instructions tell you to remove the little skid plate that protects a couple of wires. It never tells you to put it back on. The bumper does not have a hole in it to let the skid plate go back on. I was worried about these wires and cut the tab off the skid plate and put it back on...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    With the bumper in its normal location I had to cut the bottom and sides of the frame horn to clear the inside tubing on both sides. This picture is from the bottom looking up. The nut is to the rear of the truck. Cleaned it up and put some POR15 on it.

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Now for the part that totally sucked. The instruction said there was an included cut template. I did not get it and they emailed me the instructions again and it did not have it.I measured up 2.5" from the bumper at the lower height and marked it out. I cut it on top of the blue tape and it...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Just for fun I installed the drop brackets that let you keep the sensors. You will loose 3" of ground clearance at the front diff. Not worth in in my opinion. Rear drop bracket hangs way down. Factory skid plate is flush with crossmember. The entire bumper hangs way to low to be useful...

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Worked on the front bumper yesterday. Pulled the lower valance off to expose the tow hook bolts and removed the sensors. I had already taken the lower air damn off and cut my fenders for tire clearance so it was pretty fast. It just pops off with a screwdriver or trim tool. The front...

    First off, Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy your Expy as much as I enjoy mine. I tried to reply to your PM, but since Tapatalk is gone its hard to get pictures added without links and URL's. I bought a Rhino Rack Universal 76"x54" platform. When you buy the universal kit it came with...

    Now I just need to find time to install it. Work is crazy busy and its HOT for Utah.

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    I bought the drop brackets so you can still use your sensors. It lowers the bumper 3". I gave up on this bumper and ordered a F-150 one to try and I would need to cut most the front end off. So I have decide to install this and cut it as it was intended. The 3" lower defeats the purpose in...

    Grade 8 and Metric 10.9 hardware with welded backing nuts. Nice!

    My LGE-CTS/Baja Forged front bumper

    Skid plate is a nice fit and all the edges have been sanded smooth. No cutting yourself on this one.
