    High capacity battery? Will BMS simply ignore it?

    I had done a little poking around on the F150 boards a while back to get a deeper insight to the Ford BMS system. First of all, the consensus with them with battery swaps of an increased capacity is to use FORScan to find and pick the closest battery size that matches. There's only a finite...

    In the market for 2020-2022 and I have a question...

    I used to live most of my life not far from where you say you're from (northern HarCo/Lancaster). I originally grew up in the NW corner of NJ (NJ, PA, NY), which saw a decent amount of snow in the mountains. Also spent time in northern WV during my college years, as well as driving the PA...

    Blind Spot Mirrors

    I have seen heavy rain - in Florida no less - shut down driving aids. Not common, but possible. I've seen it more with the ACC module. The BSM modules are behind the rear bumper skin. I would see if you can look up there and check to see that it's clear of debris. Follow that up with the...

    Getting ready to replace pads

    Sounds like the Motorcrafts have served you well. Not sure I've heard of others going that far, at least not with the rear pads. That said, have used Power Stops numerous times in the past with great results on previous rides.

    Oil and transmission coolers

    None of the 4th's have the transmission fluid running up to the front radiator, even if equipped with HD tow package. Coolant is plumbed back to the transmission where it is ran through a heat exchanger (HX). There is an electronic valve near the battery box that also controls the flow of...

    Adding 4H Switch (18-21)

    Everything works, just the size and rotation that's off.

    Oil and transmission coolers

    I mounted the Mishimoto transmission cooler - but never finished the tie-in - on my previous truck before it got totaled. Everything went on just fine.

    Let's See Those Lifted / Big Tire Gen 4s!!

    I've lifted quite a few of my own trucks so far. If I don't align it myself and have to take it to a shop, I have gotten in the habit of adjusting the cams so the caster is as far forward as possible, and tell the shop to go from there. Another big oversight is not doing UCA's. I've learned...

    @rugedraw - It's been awhile, did you complete this? I'm quite curious how this turned out.

    So what is your model year and how many miles did you get out of the original set?

    Adding 4H Switch (18-21)

    Got the new switch in the mail today - SL1B14B596CBW. Hit and a miss… Switch plugged in and worked great tying in all possible features you could have in an Expedition and confirmed working. BUT, it is a couple of mm too small compared to the old switch dimensions and fell right though the...

    Adding 4H Switch (18-21)

    Sooooo... Just noticed this on the 2025 SSV. Haven't really looked much at the 5th gen models, but this caught my eye. All modes that I require that the other switches don't have (mainly the rear locker feature). Found what looks like to be PN SL1B14B596CBW. Ordered one and going to try.

    RECALL #26C10 TRAILER MODULE REPROGRAMMING

    OTA = Over The Air. Basically WiFi or cellular download. Check out the open recalls on the Ford App and see if it's there. If it shows up and later disappears, it may have done a self-update.

    '18 Expedition Brake Torque Spec Confirmation

    Some insane torque specs indeed on this truck. Those bolts are 258 lb.ft. (350 Nm). This is the upper limit of 1/2" drive torque wrenches as most top out at 250 lb.ft. or 350 Nm as spec'd. Also, the FSM also states that the bolts, and all other brake related bolts, are one time use (likely...

    USB Port In Rear of Console - Solved

    Sounds like you managed for the R&R of the panel for outlet access. Not sure if PN's are still needed to complete the job. For the 110v outlet, I believe this will work - GB5T19G247AA For the 18-21 USB (Type-A/Type-A) outlet - FB5Z19A495AA For the 22-24 USB (Type-A/Type-C) outlet -...

    Tail stop lights on all time

    Glad you figured it out. Can't be easy for you over there to get the truck serviced when it's a unique car. I know you've had to do some electrical modifications to get you car to comply with EURO regulations. Even you hitch must be somewhat difficult to go to a 13-pin standard that is used...

    Which

    Go with the sticker hands down. This is a huge legal requirement during assembly. As a side note as someone who's worked AC, if you suspect a leak, take it to a shop and have them pull a vacuum on the system to determine if you're low and leaking. The system is properly sealed and shouldn't...

    Bilstein 5100 Rough Ride

    Suspension is all subjective, what you are used to, and what expectations are. Are you used to American cars, and especially older cars from the 80's & 90's, where they wallowed over bumps and turns, this is definitely harder. If you have always been used to cars like our European counterparts...
