picked this bumper up today, came off a friends f-150 as soon as he got it to the shop so he could install his Tommy Gate/lift. Saves me a trip to the you-pull-it.

Bumper went on today, the inner part form the 2002 f-150 was different than the my 99 expedition so it took longer than expected. But I do enjoy not having a screwed up rear bumper.

Ok, I just gotta say that this post is just begging for pictures...



I've been playing with the idea of trying to stuff a small (proper) sub enclosure in that space, and seeing if I could get at least one amp in there too. My sub amp would never go along with a box. After all, it's a little over 18" with connectors and cable and almost 8" wide...

That amp should fit back there no problem, but not with a box. The space is limited enough really, it's surprisingly deep, my sub amp is tiny and it fit behind the 4channel monster I have.

im thinking of the box that fits under the 2nd row but just cant decide,

but yes pictures are required

I considered that box, still am really, but it just doesn't look right in the pictures. There's no way it can fit with that long piece going under the passenger 2nd row seat, and there just doesn't seem like enough room for what's pictured. I'd have to see one installed really...


I will get pics up as soon as I can :)

Didn't get many as I was installing, but I might be able to pop the sub cover off to see what I'm talking about...

I put my old injectors in. Iv had a low missfire for awhile so last week i changed my 9 month old coil packs which did not help so the other day after i pulled my expy in the garage, i started smelling gas. I narrowed down the smell to my intake and blowoff valve which pointed me to a injector leak. the next day when i started it it turned over a couple extra times before starting so i yanked all the new one year old injectors and put my old ones back in and my low misfire went away. I must of had a bad injector the whole time. my truck also feels a little faster.

Dang is that the oil the new Expy's use now?

No, but all my other cars for the last 7 years has had it installed from the factory. Guess Ford did buy the hype from Mobil 1. In Florida with the heat and humidity any synthetic oil does not collect as much moisture as mineral oil and transfers heat faster and longer. I hope it does what they claim anyway. 7 quarts is not that much oil to start with when my 3 liter diesel holds 10.5 go figure.

Got some Torco fuel accelerator.

Torco Accelerator - It's not just an octane booster

It has pretty good reviews on lightningrodder so I thought I would give it a try. I will play with the timing some and monitor results to see if it reacts similar to race fuel.

Sounds like its a reasonable alternative to race fuel for those running boost.

Torco makes plugs hard to read, leaves a redish brown residue on them

So I take it you have tried it?

If so any other comments you care to share? Did it perform as well as higher octane race fuels? I run the high octane unleaded occasionally at the track.

Plstidipped the tan trim all around and the running boards. Let's see how long it lasts on them :)

That's the spare in front :) I'm also thinking about dipping the mags or replacing them with black steelies with a chrome center cap.

Not today, but within the last week I installed new Bilstein shocks in front and the dealer fixed the broken seat track.
