Started my rear cross member replacement.

cwescapexlt4x4 · Jun 6, 2022

Did a 15% ceramic tint on the back (B pillar back) over the OEM "tint" (15% only on the front doors)

ZRX61 · Jun 7, 2022

Oil & filter (& O rings) change at 9997 miles. Mobil 1 & Wix WL10050.
What a PITA that was. It will be easier next time.

Sliced a finger open on the edge of the goddamn crossmember.
Detailed under the hood while I was in the area...

Installed a doodad...

Dropped by the dealer with a couple of questions....

You took two pictures of the black one. Is that your next ride?

They have two black ones. One is RWD & only has the shifter dial on the console, no mode dial... The red ST Line was AWD & had both dials. They were all one-bolters.

There was a REALLY nice Expedition LTD in that red...

Nice! I like some of the sport packages on the expedition.

Removed the front license plate holder, thankfully our state doesn't require them. Filled the painted holes with the BumperPlugs.com Iconic Silver bumper plugs. They were a little expensive at 29.99, but I figured that once I ordered the paint from AutomotiveTouchup and then painted them, then it wasn't so bad. I used the GM panel push retainers by Dorman, 963-004D for the black one. Thanks to another member for this great find. I love the way it changed the front look.

Nice job young man !!

Do it, the stock plug is a real Mickey Mouse crapshoot. Ronin plug has a better retainer system owing to the detent at the end of the slots that the stocker doesn't have.

That’s the way explorer STs should’ve come. I don’t get the reason goes did certain things on the ST. Chrome lug nuts on black rims and blue emblems.

Some of us here like to use an oil extractor instead of getting underneath. Works pretty good.

Ya don't get to look around under the vehicle with that system.

got it all packed up and loaded with its sibling for its trip west. to address any comments, there is approx 1000lbs of tools and gear ahead of the explorer in the trailer--despite the fatass in the back, its load balanced.

side note. if there are any users here in southern idaho or American Fork, UT and you want to meet up or know of a good shop you trust to do mechanical work, body work, or detailing (paint correction/PPF/tint), please PM me. My shop wont be finished for awhile and I'm staying in Utah until our Idaho house is built so I'm without my usual resources for the next year.
