If it works for you and your conditions, that's all that matters! Our mud and snow might be a bit different since everyone around here seems to have the same complaints. The tread cakes with mud in the most trivial wet patch and turns into a slick. We have pretty greasy and clay filled dirt, on...
+1 for winter/snow tires or at the very least, a top rated All Terrain tire for snow conditions.
No LSD in any 2015s. From a quick look at the brochure for 2014s, they don't have an LSD either. Most likely you just have a center lock/ 4x4 transfer case with open diffs in the front and rear. I...
IMO tires make a big difference on greasy mud or ice, particularly when you add grade. I'm assuming the road is smooth and all 4 tires are staying on the ground?
I've been wondering if there was any update on sourcing the lower perch. Thanks for asking! I have bilstein 4600s and shock spacers ready to be put on. I'm going to have to be careful on removal/install with no easy fall back.
Awesome! They seem like a great choice for these vehicles especially if you have a heavier road/commuting bias in your driving. This review was pretty compelling for the APT and ATX:
Unfortunately, after closer inspection it doesn't look like either tire comes in the approximate tire/wheel...
mustangdrifterx - did you pick tires yet? what did you go with? I'm leaning towards the general grabbers atx, but I frequent dirt/snow and I liked the KO2s on my previous truck.
The automatic lift gate was clearly an after thought on these vehicles. They are faster and smoother on every other vehicle. Not enough to complain about though. I hope strut/shock spacers are enough to reduce my need to duck under it, however I'll have a new issue of getting my 90lbs labs in...
Thank you for the detailed description and video, that was very helpful! I think I'm starting to wrap my head around the suspension geometry issues.
Edit: answered my follow up questions by reading around more
Black, I assume you mean "shouldn't" and in the context of the f150 5100s? Is there a reason, it isn't possible?
Do you think Expedition 5100s and a small spacer would work or would I also be looking for upper control arms to make that work? I've been searching all the threads on here and I...
Hello All, I am trying figure out what LSD options are (were) for 2015-2017 Expeditions EL and non-EL 4x4. The internet seems to be littered with bad information on this subject. The more I search google/forums the more confused I am.
Based on the brochures for all three model years, it appears...
