My wife has a 2000 expedition XLT that has been a lot of fun. In June 2018 I had an opportunity to buy a second expedition EB for $300 without keys from an impound lot. I didn't know if it ran and decided to take a chance. After having a set of keys made and charging the battery it started right up and ran OK. I changes all plugs, oil, and filters and it runs great. At the time it had 240000 miles. I decided it would make a fun off road vehicle in the West Desert of Utah.
I have since replaced air bags with coils, lifted the front with torsion keys and spacers in the rear, repainted the enitre vehicle with Raptor Liner and added larger tires. I am hoping to replace the front bumper with a heavier bumper and winch and build a cargo rack on the top.
I have enjoyed this vehicle so far and i am looking for suggestions to make it more unique and fun to play with.
