    220v alternator

    I run a food truck business so I tow around a trailer which is like a kitchen on wheels. On the trailer I have a 10,000 watt 110/220v gas generator that powers up all the equipment (3 refrigerators, freezer, toaster, water heater, lights, computer, etc.). The generator is brand new but at...

    '04 Expy whining noise??

    Hi all, I am new to the Expy, just had it for about a month, so I am still learning its personality. Every since the first day I drove it, I noticed a "wrommm wrommm wrommmmm" sound coming from the motor/outside during acceleration (past maybe 30 MPH), it increases slightly in pitch as the...

    How to remove headlights?

    Sorry this may be real simple but I am a rough guy and I tend to break things so I thought I'd better ask first to avoid heartache. Besides these two bolts, what else do you have to do to remove the headlight unit? Thanks in advance.

    My 3rd mod: Landing lights

    Got the front of the Expy all wired up today. Those are "for off-road use only" KC 6x9 100W driving lamps. Can't wait to flash those idiots who drive with high beams on. I am a bit concerned about the real estate of these gadgets blocking free air flow to the radiator. I guess I will...

    My 2nd mod: No more dangle cables

    I don't know about you guys but I have gadgets that I mount towards the upper edge of the windshield. I like to have the GPS on the upper left side so I can get to it with my left hand; I also like to mount my radar detector high to catch the hits earlier. Previously I would have all these...

    How to remove overhead console?

    I like to mount my GPS towards the left upper edge of my windshield so I want to tap into a 12v power source from the overhead console/dome light (and not have the wire dangles to the cigarette plug below). How do you remove this piece so I can access behind it? I know this is probably very...

    Nav OR CD??? either or?

    OK this may be a stupid question.... I have had my 04 Expy for only a few days so I am still trying to figure things out. It seems that I have a single CD music system (it sounds great, btw...), but in order to use the Nav, you have to stick the Nav CD in and keep it in? Or you cannot...

    Parts catalogue available online?

    Has anyone found anything on the web that would show you all the truck parts in exploded diagrams and the parts identified with numbers? Like the book at the parts counter at the dealership? I know other car makers put them online to help their customers.
