....what do we need to look at as far as replacing if it hasn't already been done on a 2003 Excursion with 81K on her. I know the exhaust will be done and the intake, but I am talking about major TSB's and such.

Thanks!

Diane just send me the truck(ok it's an suv) and you won't have to worry about any of that replacement issue. oke: Wish my spouse could drive large vehicles I want an "X" it is the perfect "family" car esp. if it is modded.

I have had all sizes of vehicles. I feel the safest in a big ole truck. It's not the easiest to drive to hotlanta traffic, but I would not be in anything else down there.

Diane do you guys have room for a big rig if I should happen thru Hawtlanta?

Ball joints are the only major thing that comes to mind. Normally see them at 60-70k.

Brakes- had a customer come in for a fuel issue and I was under her truck replacing the fuel pump and looked at the rear rotors and I could see the fan part of the rotor was showing on one of the rears.

If you only had the tractor maybe. We could park you up in the culdesac. If you had the trailer too, well we would most likely get a call from the president of the HOA here. oke:

Yeah I have a 48ft. step deck spread axle trailer so corners are sometimes hard to go around esp. if people crowed you. I have had the people in my Moms neigborhood call the cops on me I just leave a note in the window just in case so I can atleast move it or leave in leiu of getting towed.

I called my Ford Dealer on that & they told me that only applied to gassers. He said the Diesels use a diffrent system & there is nothing to worry about. I checked on a 2000 F250 Superduty too, not my IDI in case you were wondering.oke:

Diane-I'd say the usual stuff like ball joints, tie rods, shocks, u-joints, hubs & inner front axle parts & from what I hear transmissions don't like alot of power & abuse thrown at em. But we all know that you two leave that thing in "valet mode"...right?

 

[gregrob]

You're right Cat Reb (how bizarre...) That TSB does NOT apply to diesels (powerstrokes anyway) because the cruise is all handled by the PCM, not a seperate unit. :ford:

David,

You know I am joking, like I know you are too. oke:

What I might need is some rods though, but not for this truck...:tree: :rockwoot:
