i found all 4 of mine at 4 wheel parts . com for $444 shipped to my door, there was an added % off for something (can't remember what), so i jumped on it.

Did anyone order the 52210-1 accessory kit, and did you get the correct U bolts? It appears that the kit has both oval and square u bolts instead of the oval and round bolts.

Yes I ordered the accessory kit that had both sets of U-bolts and it also included a track bar adjustment kit which SHOULD be used for proper alignment!!!

Were they the correct bolts for both front and back?

Only front, I used blocks in back and had a hard time finding proper length and width for rear axle.

hi, Question for all who have done this set up. I'm looking to do the same. I have the Rancho 9000's and ordering the Procomp Springs this week. My question is what U-Bolts? I see some people had them made others bought other brands. Do the front and rear need be be changed or are any long enough. I plan to remove the factory rear blocks so the truck will sit level. I' m just trying to have all the parts ready. Thanks.

Parts list

I've had the 2002 excursion fro 8 years before I decided to put this lift on it. I put the lift on last weekend and it went smoothly. I didn't want to have u-bolts made b/c I wanted all the parts in the garage so I didn't have to stop. Here is my parts list.

Parts for lift:

Front U-bolts - Only need two w/ nuts for the driver's side: Pro Comp 13-90510A, passenger side u-bolts are long enough

Rear U-bolts w/ nuts: Tuff Country U-Bolts 17752

Drop pitman arm: 70201 Tuff Country - Pitman Arm

Trackbar bracket: Tuff Country 20904

Front Shocks: Rancho RS999264 RS9000XL Series Shock

Rear Shocks: Rancho RS999275 RS9000XL Series Shock

Rear Springs: Pro Comp 22415 5" Rear Leaf Spring, remove the rear OEM 2" blocks

Front Springs: Pro Comp 22210 Black Powdercoated Leaf Spring

Front and rear wheel well measurement are the same at 42" w/ 285/75r16 tires. But these tires only measure 31" when on the car. Even though both ends are at 42" the car is not level. I put my 4' level on the roof and the back sit about 1/2-3/4" lower than the front.

I am planning on putting on 315/75 and still fitting in the garage which is 7'.

I ran the truck for a week before putting on the drop pitman arm and track bar bracket. The drop pitman arm is a good idea but I do not like the track bar drop bracket. It seems like it over compensates and actually pushes the axle 1/2" too far towards the passenger side. I'm still brainstorming on how to fix this. I'd like to put the stock bracket back on but I think you need a drop bracket if you run a drop pitman arm.

Next up is the 2007 front grill, lights, tires, and maybe wheels. My tire store said they'd put 315's on the stock 16x7 rim.

I believe you can buy an adjustable track bar. Do you like the ride? I want to put these on our EX. For now, I took the axle bumpers off. I can't see any clearance issues, so it rides better for now.

I'll look into the adjustable track bar but I think I'll try to fix the mount first. The ride is much better than stock.

No, but I only had it for a week w/ the stock pitman arm. But I noticed the steering was a little stiffer after the lift w/ the stock pitman arm. The drop pitman arm made the steering easy again like stock.
