    Paint Hitch

    My hitch on my 2000 is all rust colored. How have you guys painted the hitch. Looks like 4 bolts on each side but looks like an evap cannister in the way on the drivers side. All through bolted though so if they break I should just have to replace the bolt. I just hate to take it off without...

    Winshield Leak?

    I have had my 2000 Expedition EB for a little over a year. When I got it the windshield had a small crack and after about 2 months we got a new one. Well now about a year later I have water coming from someplace. I can't figure out where it is coming from. I see a drip at the handle on the...

    Transmission Flush

    I bought my Expedition with 40k miles on it. It now has 60k on it. I checked the transmission fluid when I got it and it didn't seem burnt. It still looks red and doesn't smell. I want to do the flush that I've read about online. It involves draining the pan, removing the pan, replacing...

    Swaybar Link?

    I discovered a broken swaybar link yesterday while rotating my tires. I got a kit and couldn't get the nut on the bolts through the control arm. Am i doing something wrong? I put a longer bolt in there from Home Depot temporarily but haven't been able to find a longer grade 5 bolt. I checked...

    Tire Rotation - Semi Nightmare

    I rotated my tires today. They have about 20k miles on them. I was worried that I waited too long but just didn't have time to do it until today. I put the truck on 4wd low which I've always done on 4wd vehicles when jacking to lock the front wheels too. I also set the emergency brake...

    Oil 5w-20

    I have a 2000 EB with 5.4l engine. I saw online that Ford had changed the oil used for servicing this vehicle to 5w-20 in a bulletin. I have used 5w-30 and the manual says 5-30. Would there be any benefit to changing to 5W-20 instead? Both are available in motorcraft brand synthetic blend at...

    Bang Noise at Takeoff

    Very infrequently I get a bang sound when I accellerate from a stop. Usually when I am turning or changing direction. The last time I had just backed my boat into my side yard. There is a little hill going into the yard that is uneven. I unhooked the trailer and then pulled forward. The front...

    New Battery

    When I got the 2000 EB in Feb 2007, I noticed it cranked kind of hard. The first time in for an oil change, I looked over the previous owners records and it was noted that the battery was bad. They tested it and told me it was bad. I final put a new one in today. The thing cranks like crazy...

    I just joined last night but have been checking out the forum for a while and it seems pretty informative. I bought a 2000 Expedition EB in Feb 2007. It only had 43k miles on it and I know the guy that had it for the past few years. He got it with 20k on it and had been in contact with the...
