    Help Needed Ball Joints on 2WD Excursion (replacement)

    Actually, I just ordered the parts. Now where do I find the proper Ball Joint press tool? I see people make them out there. Infact you can get them off ebay for like 80 bucks.

    Help Needed Ball Joints on 2WD Excursion (replacement)

    ok so I have my stats below on my truck 2000 X 2WD. Over a year ago, i got an alignment at one of my favorite truck shops. They told me that the ball joints were going and that soon they would need to be replaced. Well, I am finally hearing a popping sound especially when I launch the truck from...

    Help me pick a tire....BFG MT KM2, ATKOE, TOYO AT, MICH LTX M/S....others?

    To tell you the truth it depends on what you use the vehicle primarly for then worry about secondary. Then pick a tire that fits both those needs. I have Bridestone Dueler AT Revos. A bit expensive but I love them! The look nice and run nice on my X. I plan on upgrading in the next few months...

    Park assist/Reverse Sensors stumper....

    Yeah I am sure no one has ever had a problem with this and I am currently spinning my wheels. I follow the wires around from the sensors and from the button to turn it on and off and they both go into huge wirelooms and I have no clue where to go from there. THIS SUCKS!

    Park assist/Reverse Sensors stumper....

    Reverse sensing system troubles I know this is not really related with the drive train, but I am driving when backing up. LOL Anyways, the real reason why I posted in this area of SDD is because there always seems to be more replies and I haven't gotten any from my other threads in the other...

    Park assist/Reverse Sensors stumper....

    Ok so I have been having problems with my reverse sensing system in my Excursion. So I thought I figured out the problem. Basically the system was defaultingly turning off when I put the truck into reverse. It worked intermittently and usually it worked better when it rained. Ok so here is how I...

    Turbo Questions, wicked wheel, turbo bog/lag...

    Yeah I would have to agree with you on that JR, that would be the AIH plug.

    Turbo Questions, wicked wheel, turbo bog/lag...

    So you think all of my problems come from the EBP tube plugged with soot? That would eliminate the turbo bog/lag and help with the EBPV cycles?

    Turbo Questions, wicked wheel, turbo bog/lag...

    Back pressure sensor and the sensor tube? Where abouts is that? Is the WW really worth it then? It's funny cause about a year or two ago I complained about my exhaust hissing in cold weather and I was told that it had something to do with trying to get the truck warm. When it's really cold...

    Injector control pressure modification... for 7.3's?

    Mike thanks for the info. I also read that I had to watch out for EGT's they may go up and that I could try a different resistor. What will each resistor do? 5K, 15k, etc and where is the ICP that I need to plug the resistor into. Will the added fuel cause the truck to bellow out black smoke...

    Injector control pressure modification... for 7.3's?

    I was reading the WIKI article on the Injector Control Pressure Modification and was that meant for 7.3's? What exactly does it do. I mean it sounds simple enough to do as long as I can find everything. Such as the ICP... what is the ICP anyways?

    Turbo Questions, wicked wheel, turbo bog/lag...

    I am getting a wicked wheel finally... I was reading something about a turbo silencer plate in the 6.0L forum HERE ... Do the 7.3's have this? Also I don't know whats going on with my turbo but for some reason it bogs every now and then and I have no power. I don't know what it is but I am...

    Hot Shot's Secret Additive for Injectors

    I'm using BG MOA oil addative in my 7.3 and I use it in my drag car. I think that works pretty good. Plus BG has been around for quite some time. I am skeptical as well. However, I am making a trip to North Carolina from NJ in May :trip and I am doing a bunch of things to my truck before I go. I...

    2wd lift kits

    Good question. I was interested in maybe doing a 3 inch body on my 2000 X. It just sits sooooo low. I am worried though that I might get body spacing in areas that I dont want for example the rear bumper. What is this lift kit going for that you are looking at?

    Possible susspension woes (shock recommendations)!

    You still in Iraq? Yeah The shocks are over 3 years old. I even think the pro comps are actually rated for an explorer. They didnt even give me the right mounting equipment. That could be part of the problem. I am going to get urethane/poly bushings with the sway bar in the front as well as...

    Possible susspension woes (shock recommendations)!

    Yeah I just hit 90,000. The alignment guy said that the left upper is a little loose and I am hearing popping in the front end with a hard quick right turn. I might get them done soon.

As of right now I have Rancho 9000 10 Way adjustables on the rear and Pro Comp shocks on the front. MY TRUCK RIDES LIKE ****! Every crack and bump in the road feels...
