    Rough Country 2.5/1" leveling kit + Bilstein 4600 shocks --- thoughts?

    Got KYBs and installed them past eve. One of the bilsteins had blown... fluid everywhere. I didn't even bother sending them back after reading about so many folks having claims denied. Will not buy them again

    Rough Country 2.5/1" leveling kit + Bilstein 4600 shocks --- thoughts?

    Hey gents. The back of the Expedition is bouncing like a hooptie four years later. The bilsteins didn't make it. Time to search for replacements....any ideas? Thanks!

    2010 Expedition, starting issues. Starter replaced twice, need next culprit...

    While trying to start the engine, try wiggling the shifter back-and-forth slightly. this is the advice four or so posts up. I don't think you followed up about wiggling the key.

    Will my brake rotors need to be replaced at 60k?

    Do you feel any pulsation in your pedal when stopping? Is that the first 60,000 miles of the vehicle with OEM rotors? Or is that an aftermarket second pair or set?

    How to stop upper control arm from hitting springs after a lift

    Which manufacturer kit did you use? I used a very basic kit from a rough country to bring it up a couple inches. The suspension seems pretty maxed even with that in place but no binding

    Power Stop drilled and slotted full kit with calipers

    I've used their non slotted rotor kit. Very happy.

    Oil pump

    Eric these 5.4 three valve engines have timing chains they do not have timing belts. I know it's a lot but definitely spend an hour or two on YouTube looking up oil pump replacement and low oil pressure on the 5.4 3v engine. You will find everything you need on youtube. So many great videos out...

    Dreaded Humming from Front end

    My buddy farmed out the replacement of the Hub the iwe and the axle CV to an independent shop. I think they used all Dorman parts. I want to say the bill was a thousand bucks or more. Crazy. Iwe are not difficult to replace

    Dreaded Humming from Front end

    Does the noise go away in AWD mode? Mine did. Hubs first followed by IWEs. IWEs were the root cause. Not a difficult DIY job for either.

    2008 Expedition XLT clunking when accelerating and slowing down.

    My buddies 2012 Expedition just under 200,000 miles had the same issue. I suggested to him was worn front wheel hub bearings and iwe actuators. He took it to his mechanic and his mechanic diagnosed and fixed the same things. In fact he had to replace his CV axles as well as they were chewed up...
