Is this a tropical conclusion or is the front tire/wheel sitting real close to the rear of the front fender? Is everything straight under the front end?
One more thing, do you have a barn/garage project and an excursion project going at the same time?

I want to know the same thing! I love my white ex. I thought I'd hate it honestly, coming from a long line of black trucks, but I like it a lot. Around here, at least, there aren't many white Excursions on the road. A TON of black, green and champagne ones however.

A full color change is a tremendous amount of work to do right. Still, if I were to do a color change on my 2000 Ex, white would be high on the list, along with the '97 version of Ford's Toreador Red. It'd take the right eye to look at a Ford color of that era and think, "Excursions didn't come in that color".

Honestly when I was X shopping I wanted the dark green with tan trim or the light green and tan trim. But trying to find a unmolested, clean, 2wd, 2002-2003 7.3 X is pretty hard. The white and tan has grown on me well, I am happy with it. However I would be interested if say I met someone with a green and tan 7.3 2wd and they wanted to trade for white.

Parts started coming in on Friday.
After working Friday night, I headed straight to meet my buddy at his shop. I should have ate my Wheaties before trying to break loose bolts.

Guys, a have a question and need help.
This oval port in the inner fender strut is the CAI of an Diesel, right?
Is this part on our V10s the same?
I have to need an answer, because since I want to install a snorkel like ARB
offer one, Im torture my brain how to do it, since ARB offer only one Bolt-On for the 7.3PS, and our Airfilters are in the front behind the left Headlights.
So.....it seems to get a new custom work anyway....
I just wont weaken the strut with an additional hole.

Had new Ubolts made for the rears this morning as I needed shorter ones in order to remove the 2.5" stock block. This made her sit just right, 42.5" front and 43" rear.
