    Rust, Can't believe it

    Holy Christ, I checked on buying new running boards and they are $600+ each. :eek: Heck for that I may just go with the power ones. THey are cheaper and cooler if they infact still work after next winter.

    Rust, Can't believe it

    I thought I was doing a good job of washing it as soon as weather permited after a snow storm but I guess not. THey are bad enough that I will be looking for new running boards cause I hate to have it looking so bad for summer-popcorn

    Rust, Can't believe it

    I washed my 05 X today and I can't believe that my factory chrome running boards are rusting and looks like the chrome is running thin ( kind of a brassy look chrome gets when old and worn) plus right around my rear license plate lights the paint on the bumper is bubbled for at least a 1/2"...

    Really rough idle on cold startup

    last time my Ex was in to the stealer they put in a new program which cycles the injectors for 30 sec. after you shut it down to clean any fuel out of them. It may just be me but the start light goes off a lot quicker and it starts much faster and the rough cold idle isn't as bad. I never plug...

    Only 12 mpg's!!!

    well I've only taken those for a good guess-ta-mitt. But can't really figure it out without redoing the speedo for my tires or with my GPS anyway.

    Only 12 mpg's!!!

    good deal. I imagine it will work on my Ex.:thumbs Well I finally had an opportunity to hit the hiway since my last check engine light had gone off. It sent the signal for MAF. So with that I check it out and it had some black plastic like shavings in there ?? so I cleaned those out and...

    Only 12 mpg's!!!

    Well my X have the same size tires gets about the same. 12mpgs having 42K on the truck. And when I'm pulling a 4000# trailer I get 9.5 mpg. The sad part is I just put a new air cleaner on my truck and it did nothing. The only good part is when I had my F250 w/ a V10 and a 4.30 gear I got 6.2 mpg...

    ANYONE HAVE A BACK UP CAM ON THEIR X

    a buddy of mine put one on his F150. He took a $50 waterproof camera from I think he said Walmart and drilled it into his bumper just above the license plate and hooked into his indash DVD. Works good plus it aids him in hooking up a trailer by himself. FOV is similar to factory ones on the...

    Lift suggestions and where to buy

    Well most people do. This is my editorial on lifting trucks. I've lifted 6 trucks in my life now from 3" to 8" and IMO if I am only going to put on 35" tires on and they clear without problems with a 4" set up why go to a 5". What purpose does it really serve except to get the center of...

    Lift suggestions and where to buy

    Who did that? :roflmao :roflmao people tried that back in the late 70s when we first were lifting my 77 chevy. Everyone quickly learned they rolled out on hard corners. The kit I got and posted there has 5 leaf springs in the front and blocks in the rear. I didn't want add a leaf in the rear...

    Lift suggestions and where to buy

    http://www.4wheelonline.com/Products.aspx?CategoryId=20945&ProductId=66073 it's called a 3" but I started at 4.5" and it settled .5" Leaving me 4" over a stock Excursion seeing they start at a -1" to begin with. I looked at the Revtek posted above and it seems to have new 5" blocks from the...

    Driveshaft vibration

    extremely frustrating and can get expensive too while chasing it that's for sure. -popcorn

    Winch

    Warn makes a hidden one that will stick your bumper out about 5" and then have a bumper cover to fix that. It's about $400. I need to research it more before I do anything. I'm not going to Alaska till summer of 08 so I have time. I had thought of the Transformer but once I saw the size...

    Winch

    I would think you would get comments on that monster. Alittle much.:eek: I'm thinking of going with the hidden warn mount. If I can get the 16.5 back there otherwise the 15 will have to do for me.

    Driveshaft vibration

    his sig does state that he has X springs which I would think lifted his Ex 2.75" seeing that they lift a F250 or 350 1.75"s over stock front springs and he also states rear F350 blocks. I'd start with tires balancing and then go to the driveline shop if that didn't do it. I'm assuming you didn't...

    Winch

    I'm going with a 15k Warn. I have a 8500# Milemarker on my Jeep. The MM winch has never let me down and has been good. Between my Jeep and my atvs which have 2500# winches on them for a machine that are only 700#s there has been many times it has taken at least 2 winches even with snatch blocks...

    Driveshaft vibration

    I had vibration on my 05 after the lift. Seeing the 05's have a double joint up front already I had my shaft rebalanced and lengthend 3/4" but it still got vibration. The driveline place told me that's all they could do and not even getting the shaft you guys are talking about would do any...

    Lift suggestions and where to buy

    I paid $535 delivered for mine. However I did then change the rear blocks for an added $60

    Lift suggestions and where to buy

    I did not shim out my bumper. The only thing that rubs is the plastic deflector on the bottom of the bumper. So I cut the bottom most corner off about 1.5" on angle so it's not noticable. I wouldn't go with duel shocks for what the majority of us use our trucks for. If I was out west and...
