new tail pipe I couldn't take the stock one from GM... Drove it in the rain so now it is all dirty total cost was less than $150 bucks! Today is wash day...that will keep me busy again.. put on new bilstiens, the stock ranchos like the ones on all previous trucks both ford and gm are junk..Tthey won't extend after compression and lots of play in them... the new shocks are night and day difference... I only have 9k miles on a new 2019... Then I did the double change of the transmission fluid to get it to synthetic TES 295 spec oil..



now i need to get a alignment and some recall work done... summer is just around the corner...

Brought my truck home from the body shop today. It took 6 weeks and me having to go buy my replacement bed to get this far! I still need a new spray in bed liner, but the shop that does it is closed due to the corona virus. Grr!

The shop also needs to make the pin striping for the bed. Ford doesn’t make them any more!

At least now I can install my new shocks, steering dampener, and my air bags!

Which steering dampener did you go with? I just installed a Fox on my '17.

Bilstein BB 5100 to match the 5100 shocks I am installing [emoji16]

I have 5100s on my truck front and back and they have been awesome. You will like them!

I hope so! I've been disappointed with the Rancho 9000 shocks I put on last summer. The adjustment valves get stuck, and the tube diameter is so large that it actually contacts my B&W turnover ball hitch framework on large bounces

The oil separator can assembly is on, box floor is drilled for the BedSlide frame to install after the cap finally gets here, which is suppose to be sometime next week.

Next is waiting for temps to warm up enough, to install the Tuffskinz. The Bumpershelz are finally on the way here. The 3/25 ship date didn't happen, but last check they landed in Illinois, from California. WooHoo!!

Loaded it with trash lumber at the saw mill and cut up the wood when I got home for the outdoor fire pit. I got about 4 wheelbarrow loads.

Air bags and shocks are installed! I couldn’t wait any longer, so I went to storage and hitched up for a test drive. Love the Bilsteins and the Air Lift 5000 bags!

Finished spark plug change on the Expedition. It was about 10k overdue and had developed a misfire on #8 under heavy load. Understandably so as found gap on #8 (right) was worn down to more than double factory spec.Click image for larger version

Have the same problem here! Washing cars about twice a week it seems.

BTW, whose momentum is that? Looks like a 397th?

Buying Bilstein shocks for my F-350. What model to use. Looks like most use the 5100?

I’ve seen that plan. It is very nice indeed.

I think you can use the 4600 or the 5100. I thought the 5100's were more for lifted trucks but I can't be sure about that.
