    Mirror extensions for towing

    I tow an enclosed construction trailer that's 8 feet by 16 feet and haven't had any need to use extension s to see around the sides. I think you'll find the Expy is wide enough already for towing standard width trailers.

    Welcome aboard from Jacksonville! I think you'll find that the forum is a great way to get honest answers for all your Expy questions.

    Hello my name is Cube and I am.....

    Welcome aboard! What's all that white stuff on the ground? Doesn't look like beach sand to me... We've had a discussion recently regarding rotors and pads - how have the power slot rotors worked for you? Which pads are you using? Tried to check out your website (slow to load w/broadband).

    OBX performance headers

    Never heard of them when I was checking the 'net for headers for my Expy. Googled them and they seem to be for the rice-burner crowd.

    HELP, new intake

    Josh, I can't imagine what would cause a 2mpg "drop" after installing the FIPK unit. I have one on my 5.4L and didn't see any negative results. Try re-setting the mileage computer and give it a couple of days. Maybe the spouse is "hot-rodding" around now that she has the new filter unit! LOL:D

    Seafoam -- How to use it properly

    How many miles do you typically put on your ride during a week? I let the Seafoam work for 7 - 10 days before changing the oil & filter. I wanted to let it have the chance to work in breaking loose all of the stuff that may have accumulated. When I changed the oil, I did not see any solids or...

    Hello from a Newbie

    Pronstar, From what i get from AED, their supercharger only comes with the M90 - they won't upgrade it to the M112. Who do i contact for a complete lightning kit?

    Transmission cooler??

    I've had the tranny fluid "exchanged" at the local Jiffy Lube - they plug in hoses and run it into the 'magic box' and then back into the truck. Not so sure i'm comfortable with that. Where do you suggest i take it for servicing? I just rolled past 100K.

    Hello from a Newbie

    I'm putting together my finances right now for an Allen Supercharger for my rig. I do quite a bit of heavy towing and would like to see the added hp at the rear wheels. Pretty embarassing from a dead stop. The truck doesn't really hit it's stride until about 2800 - 3200 rpm.

    Seafoam -- How to use it properly

    Mavrick, I just let the truck idle, and i placed the brake booster line into the can of seafoam. It sucked the can dry in very short order and I could not stall the truck! I just shut the truck off after it emptied the 1st can. I let the truck sit for about 45 minutes while I took apart the...

    tires and wheels?

    I have Michelin LTX M/S's mounted on mine and they wear very well. Road noise doesn't seem to be a problem (family members don't complain).

    superchargers

    Does your KB unit run that much hotter that you need an intercooler? I am looking for a KB to put in my 2000 5.4L because I do quite a bit of heavy towing with it, and was under the impression that the twin-screw design of the KB did not create as much heat as a centrifical supercharger...

    Which Supercharger?

    Pronstar, my axle setup is listed as H9, a 3.55 Limited Slip. Back to the supercharger's: So, you suggest a lightning blower to install on my 2000. I'd like to be able to set up with a Kenne Bell supercharger system, but they quit making my application several years ago. What do I need to do...

    Which Supercharger?

    I've got a 2000 Expy 4x4 w/ 5.4L engine. I tow a heavy construction trailer most of the time and also drive it for long periods on the highway without the trailer. I would like to purchase a supercharger that will give me more hp for towing here in Florida. The city I live in has several...

    Exhaust Manifold

    I had a similar sounding noise when I took my 2000 Expy into the shop. The 1st mechanic listened with the stethoscope and said the noise was definitely coming from the passenger side head - talking big $$$ for repairs when, thankfully, another mechanic walked up and said - check the PCV valve...

    transmission

    I have a 2000 Expy with 90,000 miles and pull a heavy construction trailer quite often and don't hear any knocking from my tranny. I can't imagine that the sounds your tranny makes are "normal". Maybe you might try taking it to another dealer for a second opinion - better yet, take it to a...

    2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition-leather seat

    The interior of my 2000 EXPY has the two-tone color scheme. The dash and center console are the grey "parchment" color, while the leather seats and door panels are the beige "Prairie Tan". A royal pain in the a$$ to get a color match. I've spent many hours looking into the Duplicolor Catalog...
