Installing Seats from a XLT into a Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
Thanks, that's what we thought. After all it is a extremely inexpensive truck and a set of "better" seats for $130. I have some other repairs I have been outlining as well, but overall a pretty cost effective vehicle.- ExtremeExpedition

Installing Seats from a XLT into a Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
The original seats were really bad. Actual chunks of the foam were missing and were extremely uncomfortable. This expedition is my daughters first ride, and she doesn't care about the color actually. I do remember using the seat paint in the past with great results. If she is ok with them the...- ExtremeExpedition

Installing Seats from a XLT into a Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
Wow, you are good! What an eye. Another swap that worked out. Peavey 18" Black widows in a pair of old JBL boxes that were missing the woofers when I received them. Sound decent, use them for when I'm working in my shop.- ExtremeExpedition

Installing Seats from a XLT into a Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
XLT Seats will fit in a Eddie Bauer edition Expedition. When we received one of our expeditions, it was left with an extremely messy interior by the previous owner. It was gross enough that we decided to completely gut it and clean all the parts outside. The factory Eddie Bauer seats were...- ExtremeExpedition

2005 Ford Expedition 4x4 conversion
May want to pick up a theft recovery 4x4 version or lightly wrecked and swap over the good parts from yours. I have done complete body swaps before, and sometimes its faster than fabricating/modifying the chassis. If you have access to a lift and can pull the complete shell and roll the 2wd...- ExtremeExpedition

new 2nd gen owner from 1st gen
I have mixed feelings on the two versions, jury is still out for me. Would like to hear your opinion on overall which is better after you get some seat and wrench time in. Definitely 2nd gen rides like a cloud... very smooth for long trips. Overall I am wondering if the first gen is heavier duty...- ExtremeExpedition

How to change your A/C Compressor on a 5.4L Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
I used a flexible "Grabber" cable tool to place the 10mm manifold inlet bolt for the first few threads, secondly fed a 10mm open ended wrench to slowly set the next few threads until the bolt was seated. Once the bolt was seated, I finally had enough space to get the super long extension with a...- ExtremeExpedition

How to change your A/C Compressor on a 5.4L Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
Please review all notes and pictures before starting this job, some pictures may be out of order. The 2003 Ford Expedition with 5.4L V8 4X4 with rear air calls for 14oz. of PAG 46 oil to be added to the compressor. If there is shipping oil already in your new compressor, dump it before adding...- ExtremeExpedition

How to change your A/C Compressor on a 5.4L Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
I'm not going to sugar coat this job at all. For an A/C compressor, it is completely ridiculous. It takes exceptional patience to squeeze your hands into unreasonably tight spaces with little space for movement of your tools. The serviceability of the A/C compressor on a 2003 5.4L V8 4X4...- ExtremeExpedition

How to change your A/C Compressor on a 5.4L Ford Expedition 2003 2004 2005 2006
Make sure you put gauges on the system before trying to remove any components. If you have high pressures, you can have a shop with a recovery machine pull the freon before attempting to take things apart.- ExtremeExpedition

Thinking of buying a 2003 Eddie Bauer, anything I should watch out for?
I feel you can make an expedition work. Yes the space is great for larger people. Seats are comfortable on long trips. I am a little concerned about their asking price. That is a pretty "Mint Condition" Asking price. If you are in MD, I would worry about rust from salt on the roads. For...- ExtremeExpedition
