    Rewiring factory fog lights

    I am planning on taking the stock front bumper off and making a full tube front end for Big Blue. I have the factory fog lights in the bumper, can I rewire some KC lights into that harness or will a stronger light burn up the factory stuff? I only want 2 lights in front and do not want to have...

    Front sway bar removal

    I just noticed tonight that my passenger side sway bar link has ripped off. I think it is because I cranked the torsions all the way up. I think I will just remove the whole thing. Has anybody else done this and what good or bad has happened. I drove for years in my Suzuki Sidekick with no sway...

    Headers on my 98 5.4L

    I am looking at putting shorty headers on my 1998 5.4L EB. The pass side manifold is warped, of course, and has busted 2 studs on the head. Instead of putting another piece of junk cast manifold on it I am going to put headers on. Has anyone else done this and what are some things to look...

    Waht lift for my 98 EB??

    I want to lift my 98 EB w/o air ride about 2" overall. I do not want a body lift. What brand and kit works the best?

    Checking the temp. control knob.

    My 98 Eddie Bauer is stuck on hot. It will only blow hot air. I just changed the heater core and blend door. The blend door actuator does not turn with the knob. Post on the actuator is good, and the door turns with a screwdriver shoved into the hole. So how do I check the control knob without...

It is no big deal but with it hooked up the interior lights and running board lights stay on. Easy fix? Besides...

    Locking rearend from the factory??

    Just wondering if any Expeditions came with a locking rearend from the factory. My 98 Eddie Bauer 5.4 sure does not slip like most limited slip rear ends do. Both rear wheel spin if they spin at all. I am impressed with its traction and ability. I have been around and had 4wd all my life and...

    New Guy here

    Thought I would introduce myself. My name is Jeff and I purchased my first Expedition about 7 months ago. It is a 1998 Eddie Bauer with 137000 on it. So far I love it, except the 12mpg.
