Yes you can. an excursion is an f250 frame with a soft rated spring (like a lowering spring)

I thought there was someone on here who successfully installed
a 5" lift and is runnin 37's but I'm not sure what thread I saw it in.
I do remember it was a greyish-blue excursion with 37'' Kumho's. Anyhow I'm kinda leaning
toward the Procomp 6'' kit with the fox reservoir shocks. The tech at 4wheelparts
told me that the procomp 6'' kit actually nets 5'' after the install

Looking for feedback from you guys who have installed 4'' to 6'' of lift on your
leaf sprung X's. Ride quality, comfort and actual lift clearance are my
main objectives I'm looking for feed back on. Awesome site here and you
guys have some awesome trucks and X's. Any advice greatly appreciated
and thanks in advance.
2000 Ford Excursion 4x4
Priority Preferance & Goals
1. I want to run 37's with the minimal amount of lift.
2. If I go with a 4'' I want to run 35's on 18'' wheels.
3. If I go with a 6'' I want to run 37's on 18'' wheels.

First post here!!! Nice forum and very informative.
I'm contemplating on having my x2k xlt 4x4 lifted as well. Correct me if I'm wrong but when you lift a vehicle, won't the center of gravity go up as well? Will having a wider tire, stance offset the change of center of gravity? I'm worried about roll-overs when sudden turn situation arises.

frame change
dose anyone know if they changed the frame of the excursion or its suspension mounting points when they changed the fronts to coil overs in 2005?
I have a 2001 leaf system and found a 8" adjustable coil over lift off a decomisioned 2005 excursion diesel that did not pass the import inspection into Canada, that i want to install into the 2001 v10 4x4.
I don't want to be lured in by price only to pay double to modify everything else!
