Ford Expedition Air Suspension

Ford Explorers are equipped with Air suspension system that adjust for leveling of the  vehicle and adding comfort to the ride.  The problem with the air ride is when it breaks down.  The air bags are expensive to work on along with the compressor.  When I had problems with my wife's Expedition I installed a conversion kit, solved the problem and a minimum of the cost.  I easily installed the system and it is still in use today.  Below is a website that carries these systems.

Winter Storage for Mowers

Remember it is important that mowers are store out of the elements.  Please also remember that when starting after storage inspection of the FLY wheel magnet is important.  I had a riding mower come in form repair after storage for the winter for a complete rebuild and the problem was a simple rust/oxidized magnet on the fly wheel.  Even if the mower is out of the elements its important to inspect the mower before use.
