    35s, gears, and lockers on a 99

    I did a little more research and it's looking like this is probably going to work. Here is another link saying as much: https://www.lightningrodder.com/threads/2009-fx4-e-locker-in-the-99-04-9-75-diff-housing.85376/ I've been trying to confirm if the axleshafts are compatible. It looks like...

    35s, gears, and lockers on a 99

    I've done some more thinking about this over the last few days. If I go with 4.10's then I'll be slightly under-geared, and if I go with 4.56's I'll be over-geared by a little bit more. But the area where we live is very hilly, usually we are driving around with 4 kids and 2 adults at a minimum...

    35s, gears, and lockers on a 99

    I've been doing some research on what direction I want to be heading with my 99 Expedition with 3.73's. So far I've bought a 2" suspension lift and 35x12.5R17 BFG KO2's. From what I am reading, the best aftermarket gearing option for 35" tires is 4.56:1, correct? I was doing some work on the...

    Tips on lift and shocks for deleted air suspension 99 EB

    Sounds great and I'd love to see pics. I just have one question: are you running a winch bumper and winch? I'm still curious to know how well this light-duty torsion bar + coilover is going to handle the extra 200 lbs.

    Tips on lift and shocks for deleted air suspension 99 EB

    Ok, so basically I can only use the coilover conversion shocks and nothing else? I am thinking about replacing the front bumper with a steel winch bumper and an 8500 lb winch that I already have from my previous vehicle. I also plan to put 35x12.50 BFG All Terrains on the factory wheels, and...

    Cattle guard

    Iron Bull bumpers are pretty stout. My friend hit a decent sized tree head-on in his Tacoma and only slightly bent the bumper, and diamonded the frame of the truck!

    What shocks? 4X4 EB w/ Supreme 2" Lift

    I've been looking into this myself, because I'm slowly cobbling together a lift kit for my 99 with deleted air ride. The Rancho ones on Rockauto are actually only 2" longer than stock-length Ranchos even though they are for a 4" lift. I'd probably run those.

    Tips on lift and shocks for deleted air suspension 99 EB

    Hey guys, new to the world of Fords but not new to wrenching and wheeling. Bought a 99 EB a few months ago and saw a great clip on youtube of Stark's Expeditions, how to run 35" tires on an Expedition. He mentioned a 2" spacer in the rear and a 2" TB crank in the front. Easy enough, but I'm...
