New to me 99 Expy EB

[VWright14]

So I just joined the forum and just got a new to me Expedition, 99 EB model. 181k miles had newer ball joints, real clean with no rust...even underneath nothing but light surface rust on the normal parts. Runs great, slight normal exhaust mani tick and the air ride pump is noisy. But doing the coil swap next week. Few little scapes and scratches but everything works great. Best part it was 100% FREE!

Welcome to the forum
If your going to do your own work I would suggest that you get a copy of the Ford Workshop Manual on DVD Much better than the after market manuals ie: Clymer or Haynes The ford manual is specific to your year and model

Thanks for the welcome, fortunately i work the service counter at a great shop so all work is super cheap.

Yes low cost....most labor rate is free and if its a serious repair then its $40 an hour. We are a full service tire/repair shop but have a family of 4 stores. We regularly work on BMW's, Benz, Porsche...and pretty much anything foreign or domestic. If they did crappy work I wouldnt even work here lol. Some of these guys ive known for 15+ years.
