    20x9.5 +15 Wheels and 295/65R20 Tires?

    Those will probably fit really good. I'm running a 17x9 +18 and they don't poke at all. Yours will poke out about a quarter inch more than mine which will not be "absurd" in my view.

    Expy died with no warning and then revived itself. Thoughts?

    Does the 04 have a different fuel pump relay than the 03 that is soldered onto the board? The description is similar to my 03 when I had to replace that relay.

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    In that case, I may just find the cheapest one online and order it so I get a new green fitting too. Thanks!

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    I looked at that, but all the fitments said it wasn't for 2003 Expy. I figured, if I'm buying something that isn't made to fit, I'll just go the cheap route and buy bulk fuel line.

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    2' of 3/8" fuel line with a dab of oil on each end to help it slip over the barbs. Unfortunately the clips on the green elbow were brittle and broke off. It's a snug fit at the valve assembly so I don't think it'll fall off, but I may add a zip tie around the whole thing to ensure it doesn't...

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    Popped the hood and think I found the leak in 2 seconds without getting dirty or taking the smoke machine out of the box. Gonna see if this hose is still available OEM.

    I hope you're right! I guess I'll respond after this weekend.

    P0171 and P0174 Bank 1 & 2 lean

    Guess I'm getting a smoke machine! My '03 5.4 has been running great, but set 4 codes yesterday - P1000, P0171, P0174, P0442. I expected the 442 since I've had cracked plastic fuel tank fittings for years, but the lean conditions are new and point to a new vacuum leak. I have mostly original...

    Seat covers recommendations

    I also recommend The Seat Shop. Watch their website and social media for sales around any holiday. My purchase was October 2017 and there was one of those "spooky" sales. I got 26% off. I think they had a March Madness sale too, which is coming up soon. I replaced upper and lower front leathers...

    Not that old, and good info about plastic welding. Let us know how it turns out if you do the weld repair. I had another P0442 code this week. It's annoying getting the check engine light every few months and having to plan my fuel fill ups.

    Bullbar does not offer the protection I expected

    Yup. +1 on that. They're cosmetic, not protection. Sorry the OP thought spending more was worth more.

    Coolant leak!

    Well known failure point. Replace entire manifold. https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/5-4l-coolant-manifold-crossover-leak.51174/

    2nd gen replacement seat covers EB tan 50$ pass/drv complete walmart.com

    I bought Seat Shop OEM covers and their cushion bottoms for my Eddie Bauer and installed 5 years ago. They still look and feel new today. I live by you get what you pay for... so let me know how those 50 dolla Walmart covers are in 5 years. I'll bet 50 dolla my 10 y/o Seat Shop covers are still...

    New 2003 owner. What are the first things you did?

    If I could do it over, and I might 1 day, I'd use a fuel resistant sealant that should stay pliable. I suspect the epoxy didn't stay sealed because it didn't have give.

    Same code here. I carry the Hypertech with me because it also reads codes and can clear them.

    New 2003 owner. What are the first things you did?

    If you're talking about the gas tank, I'll save you the money and tell you where it's leaking. There are 2 fittings (top front and rear) that are glued/plastic welded(?) into the tank. Those fittings crack at their mold seam. I found both of mine cracked when I replaced my fuel pump 4 years ago...

    New 2003 owner. What are the first things you did?

    Drive it, wash it, rinse, repeat. We bought our 2003 in 2004 with 32k miles on it, so we had many years of just driving it. Aside from regular maintenance, I started modding only about 6 years ago... Daystar lift, I've also added Rancho Quicklift with the Daystar lift; I had 2017 Raptor wheels...

    2003 5.4 2 valve rough idle, hesitation when stepping into it and low power no codew

    When is the last time you changed the spark plugs or coils? Or at least check the coil boots? Also, I've had a misfire steadily getting worse on my 03. From when I first noticed it, it took over a week of driving to work and around town (probably 70 miles) before it finally set a code for...

    2015-2017 SSV XL Trim Black Headlights

    We're happy with ours with LEDs. I adjusted them appropriately and no one "flashes" us. BTW FL UV is just as bad as AZ. I'm almost to the point of considering headlight lens replacement "maintenance" because they're that important to driving at night.

    2015-2017 SSV XL Trim Black Headlights

    I bought mine directly from Ford so I knew they would be OEM. I guess I deleted the order email, but I recall paying upper $800 with tax. I just checked the part #'s again and they're $412 for driver side and $388 for passenger from my preferred dealer in Lakeland, but MSRP is $572 and $539...

    mileage/range

    If you recently had the battery disconnected, the computer resets to a factory value for fuel mileage and the "miles to empty" is high. The more miles you drive (hundreds, or a few tank's worth) the closer to actual the miles to empty gets. We almost ran out of gas in the backwoods of a road...

    FYSA, The SeaLight LEDs match the color/ temperature of the OEM fog light LEDs very well.

    The Seat Shop sale

    I bought new covers and seat bottom cushions for my front seats from them back in 2018 for my 2003 Expy. I'm still very happy with the purchase and recommend them. Definitely watch for sales like this throughout the year - October Spooktacular, Black Friday, etc.
