    Going to check out a 2014. What should I look for?

    Thanks! This is what I am going through on my '05 5.4. At 225k the timing chain has a lot of play in it.

    MFG Sticker Replacement

    You can also try CARFAX. Sometimes they have digital copies of the window sticker but I am not sure when that started. It was included with a report on a 2014 I looked at.

    Going to check out a 2014. What should I look for?

    Hi all. Though I have not been on the forum for a while, I have continued to stay in the Expedition game. After my 1999, I upgraded to a 2005 and now am looking at a beautiful 2014. But before I fly half way across the country to check this thing out I figured I would ask those present what...

    98 expedition 4.6 engine swap

    I did a 2001 4.6 swap into my 99, with the PI heads. Let me tell you that I’d rather buy another expedition than to do that job again. First things first, removing the engine. This isn’t actually too difficult. The motor mounts are not difficult to reach, but the transmission bell housing bolts...

    Front end conversation

    Short answer is NO. The sub assemblies are majorly different and unless you're a good metal work nothing will "bolt on" to the first gen from a newer model. My 99 and 06 are different in almost every way when it comes to body work.

    First/Second Gen Seats

    Bump. Looking for middle row gray leather or vinyl around the SF Bay.

    First/Second Gen Seats

    Understood. I thought I would ask here in case anyone had anything they needed to get rid of. Due to the nature of my truck, I'm far from Interested in the $500 cherry condition seat. Thanks

    First/Second Gen Seats

    I'm not interested in dyeing belts. I don't have a factory set of belts in the front anyways. Since I do not race the truck anymore, I am just trying to convert it back to a regular, every day driver level comfort. So that means no racing buckets or harnesses. I just cannot find a decent set of...

    First/Second Gen Seats

    Hey all, I am looking to replace my front seats. Interior is the gray vinyl and would prefer to go with gray, but that's not my #1. I am fairly indifferent between bench or captains seats. It just seems very difficult to find these seats in any condition that isn't s*%t or cherry. I am...

    Captains Seats to Bench?

    I am curious to know if the bench seat available in 99 (and similar years) would bolt in after removing the captains seats and center console. Would it?

    1999 Expedition BW 44-05 TCase

    Are there 2 or 3 sensors on this t case? I have replaced the 2 HALL sensors, the shift motor, the 4x4 switch on the dash, and STILL have a flashing 4x4 light. Shifts into 4hi and 4low just fine. However, it sometimes binds as if it is in 4x4 in a turn on a high traction surface. This is not...

    1999 4x4 Solenoid

    Well after replacing the transfer case shift motor with a new one, per the service bulletin (I was experiencing symptoms identical to it [the A4WD sometimes stays locked into gear with random 4x4 light flashes and beeps from the gauge cluster]). Have also replaced both hall sensors. The 4x4...

    1999 4x4 Solenoid

    That is correct, it is A4WD. Are you certain on the fact they ditched the solenoids? Ford provided me parts noted specifically for the 99 model year. If they were "deleted," what system replaced them? I'm chasing a gremlin through my vacuum system.

    1999 4x4 Solenoid

    I know it is paired with the 2wd solenoid, but they are not where other resources generally dictate. Did the 99 models relocate these to a different area?

    1999 4x4 Solenoid

    Where can I find the 4x4 solenoid for a 99? Most research has led me to being on the firewall, just act of the battery box. However, nothing is there, nor does it appear as though anything ever was there. Is there a different location for these solenoids?

    1999 A4WD Hubs Sticking

    the 4x4 does work. The problem isn't engaging, its disengaging. And I have been testing on dirt, not tarmac.

    1999 A4WD Hubs Sticking

    4WD. Doesn't seem to have this problem when the selector is in A4WD.

    1999 A4WD Hubs Sticking

    Hey, really trying to figure something out here and would love to hear your thoughts on my issue here. The A4WD shifts into gear just fine. Super stiff, and when turning, it feels like its binding up because the vehicle actually slows. Then it clicks through and goes again, one revolution at...

    1999 Expedition 4x4 not fully disengagin

    Anybody have any thoughts? Could it be that the physical front hubs need replacing?

    1999 Expedition 4x4 not fully disengagin

    Ok...Interesting problem here and it leaves me a bit puzzled. As a 99, with the shift on the fly and A4WD and no more manual or auto locking hubs etc etc, I've had a problem with the system disengaging. At a turn of the switch, the system will engage. With another turn of the switch, it...

    "Hall" sensors

    Any thoughts? I still have no leads on what anybody is talking about as far as "hall" sensors go.

    "Hall" sensors

    So I have a constantly flashing 4 x 4 light on my dash. This research I have done points to "hall" sensors. I have no idea what these are. I replaced my speed sensor on the rear differential and that has made no change. What sensors are on the transfer case that can be replaced? Without looking...

    Stuck Rotors

    Cut it off. All 3 other rotors slid right off. But this one was nuts!

    Transmission question

    Crawl underneath it and count of the transmission oil pan has 14 or 20 bolts keeping the pan to the transmission.
