King Ranch Dash Question ???

Is the King Ranch Dash different then the F250/F350 dashes? Seems the King Ranch dash is the same as a Excursion??? When I ordered my wood dash kit it had the same layout as a Excursion. Was not the same as a F250/350.

Reason I am asking is when I went to order a Dash Mat, they said they don't make one for a King Ranch. So I am thinking I could just order a Excursion Dash Mat.

Anyone know for sure what is up with the King Ranch dash ???

I think they are the same. The only time King Ranch is an issue is when ordering the wood veneer kit to get the same wood to match the OEM in the truck. Maybe they do not have the medium parchment color.

Same as a Excursion? Because I know the King ranch is not the same as a F250/350. The wood dash kit has the same layout as a Excursion not the F250/350.

I am thinking they used the same Upper Dash as the Excursion too.

Tadashi,

Check your Dash. I think you will find it is a Excursion style not F250/350.

Its neither here nor there, but I searched King Ranch Dash and came up with 7 threads.

The onlything different that I can tell is the face of the dash, not the whole assembly. If you are talking a mat that sits on top it shoudn't matter.

I believe the only difference in the dash is the instrument cluster surround (the piece around your radio.) Main difference being the placement of the switches on those rectangular areas. Also, Excursion logo is on it (is the King Rach???) so the wood kit has to be cut to allow this to show. I believe the upper portion of the dash (the main dash surround) is the same in the Excursions and Superduties, so seems like they should use the same kits.

The Gauge area is different between the Excursion/King Ranch and the F250/350. Excursion and King Ranch have a more rounded pod.

what are dash mats suppose to do? Won't the sun fade it? It seems like it would be a pain to clean all the time sinc eyou cannot just wipe it down.

I love Dash mats. Gets to be over 100F here. Keeps your Dash cool, helps AC system.
And it keeps it from fadeing and Cracking. They are easy to clean and you don't notice the dust.
