    My '11 EL

    Owned 'er just a week, and already had to put my hands all over her. Gotta have her dressed up when we go out LOL. First up was some LED foglights. I have to say that I was impressed with the whiteness of these. Light output is a little more than the stock H13s that were in there, but I opted...

    Where's the hidden lake?

    Now that you've gotten the water out, think about ways it may have gotten in and check those out. If the dew wipes and window seals around the glass areas are nice and not gaping cracks or the like... Of course, you did say that you had a hell of a rain.......

    2013 LED Headlights

    These are the ones I ordered, and just received them a few minutes ago. I'll update after I've gotten them in and see what they're like tonight. Stay tuned! :)

    Who has a Magnaflow catback?

    Seems like it just needs a little time to "break in", as it were. Sweet...thanks. I put about 120 miles on mine tonight and it seems a little deeper in tone and more throaty...as you say, kinda what I want...something with a little growl, rather the scream of just gutted cats and a glasspack or...

    Add auto up and down window switches...

    I've had rain, water, soda, and once, famously, a milkshake spilled onto my window switches on my 98 Explorer. Still works. I did have to take 'em apart and clean the ice cream goo out of 'em. If you left the window down in a tropical deluge, the switches would be lower on the priority list...

    Who has a Magnaflow catback?

    And do you like it? I just put it on mine and honestly thought it would be a little louder. The tone is good, just, had hoped for a bit more volume. LOL, I suppose it might get a little louder with some use though. Also have all the cats, the exhaust is otherwise stock. I drove it about 15...

    Show your Lifted 3rd Gens

    Excellent! Yeah I saw your ride when I was studying and it stood out to me. The only thing else that I'm concerned with...are your Raptor wheels the same offset as say a stock 17" or 18" Expedition wheel? Trying to determine if I'd need to run a spacer to clear with the lift setup you have, or...

    Show your Lifted 3rd Gens

    I'm thinking about running some bigger tire under mine ('11 XLT EL). I think a 33x12.50 would be about as big as I'd need/want. If it were your Expy, how would you accomplish the lift required? I think my struts may be a little on the mushy side so that is a consideration too. Would the 5100s...

    Buying Wiper Blades

    I suppose it's like some of the Explorer rears...have to have a special wiper blade? As in, NOT one you get at a parts store? Supposed to be rainy here all weekend, and mine is bad....

    FNG here, hey y'all

    Just became an Expo owner, mine's an '11 XLT EL. Come from a history of Explorers, Mustangs, and a few F150s of varying vintage and style, so while Ford in general isn't new hat for me, the Expo is. There's a couple things I want to change and improve, some aftermarket wheels and some meaty...
