Ford Excursion :: BDS 4" Lift - How To Get Extra Inch

So I have the option to get a bds 4" lift for about 325 brand new from a friend.

Hard to pass up that deal but I really need like a 6 to 7" lift.

Is there anything i can add to get a few extra inches? Shackles?

I do NOT go off road its just for street use, and I only drive it maybe 4k a year if that.

Ford Excursion :: 2005 - Extra Wiring Harness Under Radiator

This is on my 05. I assume its for fog lights. Is that correct? If so, where is the fog light switch? I don't have one near my headlight switch. Is this one of those things where everyone gets the harness, but the option is only on the switch if equipped?

Here is the harness....

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Adding Extra Set Of Wheels?

I am trying to get an extra set of wheels for my truck before we move back to Alaska to mount my studs on next winter. I have found a few used sets but then realized I have the tire pressure sensors on my truck. If I pick up a set, do I have to get ones with the sensors? Can sensors be added to the tire shop? I just really have no intel on this subject!

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: E4OD - Extra Power Will Cause Catastrophic Failure

Ok so I've had this problem since I bought the truck and has never really caused any damage anywhere except in the rain and snow it makes it brake loose much easier. i bought the truck at 90,000 and im at 217000 now. I just recently added a programmer and bored it out and now I am concerned the extra power will cause catastrophic failure, i found this which accurately describes it as to what the problem is? my 92 f-250 felt this way when the driveshaft was getting loose but no such problem on this one.

Ford - Mountaineer :: 1998 - Takes Some Extra Cranking To Start / Idles Like Missing

I have a 98 Mountaineer, 5.0 auto that I just picked up. It takes some extra cranking to start it, and then when it does start it idles like it's missing. Also, the throttle response is not good. I have two codes that come back as soon as they are reset. P0340 (cam shaft sensor) and P0350 Ignition coil malfunction. I have been reading threads here saying that sometimes the P0340 can be the alternator it not always the sensor.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Extra Metallic Rubbing Sound When Letting Off The Throttle

Got some snow tonight and was driving home from work around 35-40 mph in 4x4. You can tell that everything is engaged by the feeling and noise. Just not sure if this is abnormal. When letting off the throttle there's an extra metallic rubbing sound that goes with the drivetrain speed. Not sure if I'm just hearing the driveshaft from being in 4x4 of if something is up?

Camry :: 2002 - Using 2 Quarts Extra In Between Oil Changes

I have a 2002 Camry with 302,245 miles. I am noticing that it is using a lot of oil. Maybe 2 quarts extra in between oil changes.

I came home tonight and noticed oil on the garage floor. At first I thought it was water from the AC but it smelled and felt like oil.

Could the engine be burning oil and a possible leak?

Touareg :: Tiptronic - Extra Shift In 2nd Gear?

I'm still trying to figure out the tiptronic trans. Sometimes it seems to have a mind of its own. One anomoly I've noticed fairly consistently is a "second" shift within 2nd gear. It happens a little above 2000rpm and it can be felt, heard and observed as a drop of several hundred rpm. It's as if the trans is shifting on its own, but its not since it remains in second gear until I upshift into third.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Need Extra Power To Downshift

I just purchased an 04 f-250 Lariat. It only has 103k miles. first time diesel owner. When I drive it, it shifts smooth as ever. BUT, when I need that extra power to downshift, nothing happens. Nothing raddles, it stays cool when it warms up. Again, normal driving behavior its fine, until it needs to downshift. I have two referred mechanics, but id like to get a little more info before I take it in.

Golf/GTI VII :: Changing Wheels - Extra Load Or Standard

I have decided to purchase a set of Potenza RE760 Sport tires for my GTi.

I don't know the difference between extra load and standard. If I understood correctly extra load will be a bit harsher of a ride and is more performance oriented? What is the best option for my specific car? Running stock 18-inch Austin's btw.

Prius (2010-12) :: Unable To Program Extra Keys

As I had two extra keys from my last Prius (totaled 2010), I took them to the dealer to get them programmed - they spent gobs of time, but could not get them to register. They verified they were the correct keys - but in the end, could not get through to Toyota's higher level tech support to troubleshoot it....

They said they'd try again on my first service. Why there would be an issue programming extra keys???

Subaru - Outback :: Seat Adjustment - Extra Cushions Or Pillows

I'm one month into a new '12 Outback, after previously purchasing a '12 Forester and trading up to the OB. Both cars have proven (to me at least) to have the worst front seats I've ever encountered in any car I've driven in nearly 30 years of driving. The adjustments on the Forester were limited to forward and backward, but even with the power adjustment on the OB, I'm having all kinds of back problems (including likely sciatica problems) that I've never experienced before. No amount of seat adjusting, or extra cushions or pillows, does anything to fix the problem. I'm facing a visit to the chiropractor to investigate the cause, but everything seems to point to the dang Subaru seats. I'm not at all unusual in my body type/frame/weight, so this is incredibly frustrating, especially since the OB, and even the Forester, are otherwise good vehicles and had everything I need at a good price.
