Those Expeditions are tanks. That era Expedition and F-150 are some of the most reliable and tough vehicles on the road - with a couple exceptions.
My pops also has a 1999 Expedition 5.4 AWD/4x4. That this is also a tank, but has an exhaust leak (warped manifold).
My one experience with Bridgestone was excellent on a Ford Expedition. Got 65k out of them an excellent traction.
I did my 2016 Expedition pads and rotors 2-3 years ago. Great brakes from PowerStop-have them on 2 vehicles. Nice kits.
First gen Expedition- I'm not a Ford fan, but some of those old Expeditions were amazing. Definitely seem to be hit or miss, either bulletproof or a nightmare with no in between. My father had a 98 that he bought new and scrapped in 2019 with just shy of 500k miles, absolutely beat the living shit out of that truck and it just wouldn’t die, only ever needed an alternator, 2 shifter cables, a brake hose and 2 ignition coils.
For brake discs and pads Stoptech has worked well under both my Expedition and also another Ford vehicle.
I have weathertech in the family Expedition and they may not be luxurious, but they're durable and have saved my carpet (4 kids).
Years ago I had an enlightening experience with Hankook Dynapro MTs, when I broke a tire and for a few weeks in winter had a a siped tire on on end of the rear axle and an unsiped tire on the other. The limited slip had to work very hard to keep me on the road in ice conditions in 2WD.
Recently purchased Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires 285/45R22 for my ford expedition. Extremely disappointed in the loud road noise from the aggressive tread pattern. Which is a common complaint of michelin deep tread patterns and wide tires, even though it's reported elsewhere as a quite tire, (no way). When looking for a quite tire ask or google the "noise rating" of a specific tire before you buy them. My old straight tread pattern tires were quiet on the road.
Friday the shop replaced both rear struts with new KYB struts. The next morning I drove 160 miles round trip on interstate at interstate speeds. On the way back some minor road damage made the car feel like it was going to go right off the road -- pulling right, lots of twisting and yawing.
When home I found a puddle of reddish fluid where the truck had been overnight. This morning the shop confirmed that \*both\* struts had blown out and they never saw anything like it.
I’ve already had to replace the windshield twice since then. The first had a small chip on the edge of the glass and it spread before we even got home. The second happened from a chip that was about 3” above the edge below the windshield wiper. The latter we had filled as safelight, and it spread about a week later.
