Disconnect the positive battery cable from the battery, make sure you take off the positive one before the negative one. Then disconnect the negative cable. Remove the clamps holding the battery down. Pull the battery out. Put the new one in. Put the battery clamps back on. (make sure you clean the battery connections. make sure there is no corrosion) Connect the negative cable first, tighten it, then connect the positive cable and tighten it. You are done.

disconnect the positive and negative connections ( only 2 connections ) remove battery. replace with new then connect the negative and positive connections to the correct terminals.

There is a plastic cover over your battery. Remove the positive cable, then the negative cable (if its stock, then it uses an 8mm wrench). Then remove the plastic cover. On the side of the battery closest to the middle of the truck, there is a plastic "chunk" held down by an 8mm bolt. Use an 8mm socket with about a 10" extension to remove this. Take out the battery and replace using the reverse procedure. It should be replaced with a 65 series battery in your expedition.

Note - black is negative. red is positive
