    shocks with AirRide?

    Rancho's are made by Monroe. Shocks alone will not lift your truck. maybe a new set of "air-bags" or compressor for your air-ride load leveling system. In order to lift your truck you will either need new springs and or spacers.

    Check engine prob. EGR press diff switch

    Did you or your mechanic clear your D.T.C.'s (diagnostic trouble codes) from your truck's computer? It may be that even though the "check engine" light was reset the computer may still beleive that the problem exists because the codes have not been cleared... just an idea, not sure if it will...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    a nice set of all-terrain tires would also help.... they go a long way toward absorbing all those bumps!! Question: If your truck had solid axles, would it help you in any way with the sinking in the sand or would you perhaps find yourself balancing on your differential(s) and/or axle(s)...

    A4WD Grinding when turning issues

    I am not sure about anybody elses specific problem with this issue, but i would like to offer a point of view (which is subject to change): My initial impression of this "grinding" sensation is that it is completely normal in an all wheel drive vehicle. I have owned subaru's (2) and audi's...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    I beleive it is a good platform for all but the most radical off-road enthusiasts. Definitely performs well on trails, washboards, and even in about 12" of mud (it has been raining here a lot, took my favorite shortcut the other day and found myself plowing through the worst gumbo clay mud...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    I was only teasing about the beer. I spilled mine all over a couple of days ago. Are there any SUV's out there which come straight from the factory configured the way anyone would really want them for off-road? The Tires are the first object of question... then shocks, springs, ride height...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    Damn Ford, I must say it soes not surprise me to hear that you drive around with a beer in your hand, perhaps if you were sober you would stop driving over all the big bumps and wailing on your vehicle. The problem is that you guys are assuming that if a vehicle has 4 wheel drive...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    A few good points there rwinch, however: 1. The comparison is merely to illustrate that not "all" competent off road vehicles need to have a solid axle. Secondly there are aspects of the IS on the H1 and the Expedition ('03-+) that are similar. The differentials, both front and...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    i think you guys need to re-assess... i havae done a lot of off roading in the northern new mexico area and in the muddy swamps of texas and there is nothing like independant rear suspension. i could take my audi and my subaru (both all-wheel drive with independant suspension) many places that...
