Rough Country 5" Suspension Lift Kit for 2000-2005 Ford Excursion 4WD - 481.20
H**E
An okay lift for just make sure you are experienced in wrenches before you start.
This lift was purchased for a 20002 excursion and it is good lift everything about it was just okay. The only issues I found was that the leaf springs for the front that they sent are too thick and the factory U-bolts would not work. Therefore I had to remove one of the small leafs on the bottom so the factory U-bolts would work. This was okay since the ride height was not drastically changed and I could not tell the difference. Moreover the U-bolts that they send for the rear leaf springs are not a high grade quality, therefore do not over torque them, use the spec. they send in the instruction. I tried torquing them to grade eight specifications and quickly figured out they could not take that kind of torque as I felt the U-bolt start to yield so I stopped. Their spec. appears to be working correctly since I have this on my vehicle for a while and they have not backed off yet. The rest of the supporting equipment such as the sway bar relocation mounts were perfect. The shocks are smoother than the bilstein I have on my F-250 with the same lift height so I believe they are of good construction. Moreover the driveshaft angles are good there are no vibration issues at 80 plus MPH. I would do this lift again I just think I would have gotten some better U-bolts for the rear end. The lift took a weekend for me to install and at the same time I was replacing bushings.

Pretty irritated
Well so far my lift came days apart I got a few packages 4 days ago then the leafs today and when I got them they were bent and damaged I don't believe the manufacturer fault but Amazon, if you can't hire employees that can lift a 50lb leaf spring you probably shouldn't sell them
