Sway bar

Will a rear sway bar from a 00-05 f -250 fit an excursion?
A friend of mine found one in the pull and pay this morning and wanted to know if in could use it?

I pulled one off a wrecked F350 and it fit fine. You just have to make sure and get the axle brackets from the wreck. The passenger side bracket on the X has a skid plate that gets in the way, and I had to remove that bracket to get the sway bar on. Also, the end links will likely not be EXACT for the X depending on the lift that was on the F250. I had to buy new end links from Advance to complete the install, as the links on the lifted F350 were too long. I forget what length end links I bought. I mounted the bar on the axle, held it level, and then measured from the hole in the frame down to the bar. Also, the passenger side brake line secured to that skid plate with a little wire thing that had a bolt holding it. I just twisted the little wire mounting gizmo (not as easy as it sounds, but not too hard) and remounted it to the new bracket.
