lift kits for expe 2003

I am looking to lift my 2003 expe. I don't want it to high just enough to give proper clearence for 20" tires. I have my new tires and rims and want to put them on the truck but I don't want them to rub or look stupid. Anyone know where I can order a good lift kit not some junk?

20 inch rims? On my 03 fx4 the stock tires are just over 31" diameter. I would mount the rims and check out clearences. Truxx and daystar make easy lifts.

20 " tires. Right now I have 18 on there and want to go a little bit bigger. Only because of the rims I got. They are for 20" tires. I will check out Truxx and Daystar. Thanks

Rancho has a new product called Quick Lift. It's a new shock/strut assembly that lifts the truck 2-3 inches in one shot. I think it's about $600 to do all four corners, which isn't bad considering you're getting a lift kit and new shocks.

I checked out the Rancho site and the quick lift looks interesting.........

It appears that you have to reuse your stock springs and it relocates the lower spring perch upwards to supply the lift..........

only concern is what happens when the shock goes bad? you need to get new ones?

I saw that too. I just got new shocks so for awhile I would be good but like you said then what I have a saggy truck like my grandmas butt. LOL
Thanks again for the info.
