Hey y'all, new expedition owner here which also means im the FNG on this forum so sorry in advance if i ask questions that have been answered.
Getting started my brother and one of my sisters both have expeditions and a few years back I got to drive one and loved it! So after a long time later I finally broke down earlier this week and bought an 2002 expedition E.B. and im loving it so far. I just have a few questions
1. at low speeds (1-2 mph) if I crank the wheel against the stop and try to move it takes more throttle than if I only do a half turn, If i do get it rolling while cranked and let off the throttle it seems to slow down quick almost as if there is a slight brake on the system. It almost feels like the transfer case isnt fully split into AWD but there is no popping and the tires arnt dragging like they would when locked. is this just normal drag from the CV joints?
2. when accelerating under 1/3rd throttle or more there is a vibration or shudder in the rear end directly after it shifts into overdrive. My sisters expedition does this too. It kinda feels like a bad u-joint but the drive shafts are all tight, the more throttle you have the worse the shudder is when going into overdrive, conversely under low throttle there is no shudder. anyone else have this issue?
those are really the only issues that have me stumped so far. any help would be greatly appreciated. on a side note.. didnt ford know DVD players existed in 2002!? what in the heck am I going to do with a freaking VCR!?
