2004 Ford Excursion 6.0l 4wd Super Low Mileage on 2040-cars
Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States
|
I purchased this 2004 Excursion brand new. I planned to keep it but ten years later my situation has changed and it needs to find a new home. Here is a list of the items that have been done to both upgrade its abilities and to fix Ford issues mainly with the 6.0L.
Starting with the engine. Professional rework of the engine to include ARB Head Studs, Liberator External Oil Cooler, upgraded FICM and Bulletproof EGR Cooler. If you have done any research on the Ford 6.0L engine these modifications are necessary to have confidence that the vehicle can be used for daily driving as well as towing. Talk to a diesel mechanic, the 6.0L is an excellent engine once these modifications are completed. These upgrades cost over $5000. Also added is a AMS Bypass Oil Filtration System. This system takes a small amount of oil from the top of the oil filter and runs it through a 2 micron AMS Filter. This system is in operation in parallel with the Ford oil filtration system but has a much more efficient filter. Ultra clean oil means super long engine life. AirAid air filtration system. The better an engine breathes the more power it can develop. The oil pans on the transmission and the rear differential have been replaced by Mag-Hytec Units. These oil pans almost double the oil capacity of the reservoirs. More oil equals lower temperatures. The differential cover also has a dipstick that also contains a magnet so you can see if there are any problems. Batteries have been replaced with Odyssey AGM Batteries. These are the best batteries made today for an automobile. Firestone Air Bags with an on board air compressor allow for height adjustment when pulling a trailer. I did not have to use much air pressure but I believe the ride was improved by the addition of the air bags. New Monroe Shocks on all four corners and front tie rod dampener assembly ~500 miles ago. New Napa Super Premium rotors and brakes on the front axle ~ 200 miles ago. I replaced the Ford 4WD front locking hubs with high quality Warn Locking Hubs due to having intermittent operation of the Ford Hubs in winter. It is not acceptable to me to have a feature unavailable due to the OEM's design being inadequate. The hubs do have to be engaged manually however the vehicle can be used in the 2 wheel drive mode with the hubs left locked in and there is no problem doing that. I have installed the following Autometer Gauges to be able to monitor engine, transmission and rear differential parameters. Engine exhaust temperature, engine turbo boost pressure, engine oil pressure, transmission oil temperature to the cooler and rear differential temperature. I work as an operator at a power plant and am able to monitor conditions around the plant with installed instrumentation. Ford did not have the instrumentation that I believe is necessary to monitor your vehicle especially while towing so I added it. Brand new windshield as of 9/8/2014 thanks to a big rock. This vehicle is what I would consider barely broken in. It is ready to go and I doubt you could find a more capable Excursion anywhere. I have a lot of pride in the work that has been done on this vehicle. There are a few minor dings and scratches, very minor and they do not take away from the vehicle at all. If you have any questions or need more information please let me know. . On Sep-14-14 at 10:22:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Couple more items for the Excursion: A Superchips Tuner and Code Reader is included with the vehicle. I used the "economy" mode mainly with the truck and when rolling down the highway was able to get 18 mpg at 65 mph. Not to bad for a rig of this size. There is a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller that is located between the oil pressure and differential temperature gauges also goes with the truck. Once again if you need anymore pictures of anything please ask. All maintenance records, window sticker, and receipts will go with the vehicle if you want them. There has never been any smoking in the rig. |

2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US
Thu, 18 Jul 2013YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.
Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America
Wed, May 27 2015Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.
