    2007 EL needs air to coil suspension

    The Suncore kit worked great. It only took about 3 hours including a couple beers. For $180 I think it is the best bang for the buck. My EL sits right at 1-1/4 inches higher then it did with the factory air struts. It might settle a bit but the ride quality was affected very little so I’m just...

    2007 EL needs air to coil suspension

    Thanks for the info. I ordered the Suncore conversion and will hopefully have good results.

    Expy El conversion

    Monroe has a way to turn off the light that I checked out on a YouTube video.

    Expy El conversion

    Any way to elaborate on this? I called and they weren’t able to give me much info. Maybe the expert was on a break.

    2007 EL needs air to coil suspension

    I have a 2007 EL and have a blown air shock on the drivers rear. The passenger rear is also leaking slowly and I want to do a conversion to coils. I have found several very inexpensive conversions from Monroe, Suncore, and Unity. The only one specifically listed for the EL that I have found is...

    Fog light LED replacement for 2007

    5000k for both is what I am planning on doing. I guess I will just go with a stock replacement and some new bulbs.

    "Aspen" the 07 Expedition, our next Overland Travel vehicle.

    That is a great looking rig. I love the grill and headlights.

    Fog light LED replacement for 2007

    Wondering if anyone has replaced the factory fog light housings with an LED setup? I was thinking about stuffing some 5 inch round LED to cure my fogged up factory lights. I searched the forum with no success maybe someone has some input.

    Lifted Big Blue 2011

    Looks great. How much did all the parts for the lift (excluding wheels and tires) run ya?

    Texas hog hunt

    I just hope that the "James" k9 education was referring to was a coincidence, and not my buddy James that is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. If he was, I'm not sure why he considered that a proportional response. I'm sorry for not finding the appropriate thread location but I...

    Texas hog hunt

    Got my Expedition loaded up and I'm leaving tomorrow for a hog hunt in Cisco, Texas. My buddy's parents run a ranch and supposedly have a big problem with hogs. I'll be taking my Hickory creek crossbow along with an AK and .243 set up for night time shots. My buddy is bringing a .50 beowulf...

    Air suspension conversion

    Anybody have input on a high quality conversion kit with 2-3 inches of lift without the $1000 price tag of Strutmasters? Sent from my SM-N900R4 using Tapatalk

    Air suspension conversion

    I am wanting to do this conversion also with a little lift added. Probably in the 2-3 inch range. I just want enough to clear 33 inch tires and not have any air suspension failures. I have a 2007 EL and am leaning towards the strutmasters kit, but hopefully I can find an option that is just...

    Best tuner to monitor engine stats

    After some research I found that 5.4 3 valve motor needs a T installed to run a new oil pressure sender. I will probably run a mechanical oil pressure gauge and also buy an SCT from 5 star. Sent from my SM-N900R4 using Tapatalk

    Looking at a 2007 EL

    200k should be easy with the technology available today. My 2000 silverado has 220k and is still running fine. Ford seriously didn't want to include an actual oil pressure PID to keep the ecu informed that there is enough pressure to run the vvt and keep the motor sufficiently lubricated...

    Best tuner to monitor engine stats

    I am looking at a 2007 EL and am interested to know if there is is a recommended tuner to monitor oil temp and pressure along with trans temp. Extra power and mpg's are nice but being able to keep an eye on critical temperatures to keep problems from becoming huge issues is important to me...

    Looking at a 2007 EL

    All the electronic creature comfort and infotainment works, I am most worried about the motor. It has 160,000 miles on it with no noticeable issues. My dad owns it currently and I know he would not try to screw me over on a known issue. The only issues he knows about are a tiny drip on the...

    Looking at a 2007 EL

    Looks like having an oil pressure guage would help to identify some of the problems. Any tuners that can monitor oil pressure on the fly? Or do I need to tap into the oil pressure switch for a dedicated guage? I will definitely be listening for noises (warm and cold). After reading for a...

    Looking at a 2007 EL

    Sold my old 97 Expedition a couple years ago but am looking at a 2007 EL 4x4 Eddie Bauer with every option available (really looking forward to having cooled seats). It is a seriously nice vehicle that could pass for 2 years old instead of 9. Is there anything I need to look out for? I have...

    Traded the Expedition

    Don't need a grocery getter, that is what the wife's CX-9 is for. My Expedition and now the Jeep are just toys for taking the kids fishing or wheelin'. Yes it was an even up trade, both of us walked away feeling happy about the deal. He was asking $4500 for the Jeep and I was asking $3800 for...

    Traded the Expedition

    3.5 inches of lift, PosiLok, fresh 4.2 with bikini, soft, and hard tops. Runs like a top and is a complete blast. So light compared to my Expedition and does great climbing over the small stuff. Took my kids for a spin this afternoon and they all loved it. My son didn't want to get out. Here...

    Need your opinions on a wheel mod....

    You can also buy red vinyl pinstriping that way you don't have four seams to match up.....just one. I used silver on my black wheels for my motorcycle and it looked great to me.
