Could have done it without the gun posts as well.

(ducks)

 

I know, I could not come up with an effective analogy.

My bad.

 

Sorry about that, my initial post was kind of rushed. Now I want to upgrade the front end. Is eBay the best place for the grill and light? Does anyone know of a certain vendor to use?

 

I went with eBay, yeah. I bought http://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-FORD-F-250-F350-GRILLE-GRILL-CONVERSION-1999-2004-/110652517332?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19c3676bd4, but it had the billets in it already, and is ready for paint.

I bought Eagle Eye headlights http://www.ebay.com/itm/1999-2004-FORD-F-250-F-350-SUPERDUTY-00-04-EXCURSION-LED-FACELIFT-HEADLIGHTS-/400269463942?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3AExcursion&hash=item5d31eb5186&vxp=mtr with the LED in the middle.

I had to hack the shirt out of the header panel to make them fit, but they look great now and I'm very happy with them!

 

I went a different route:

The Grill-
Ford Paintable 05-07 Super Duty/Excursion Grille Fits 99-04

The Lights w/HID and DRL-

HID Xenon + 99-04 Ford F250 F350 Superduty LED Crystal Headlights - Black

Or you can find an F250 grill in a salvage yard, lots of options.

 

Congrats on the purchase, now we will all be more than happy to help you spend your money!
Your 305/70R16 tires look to be 33" tall as opposed to the stockers at 31.5". So if you are going to regear for better towing I would go with 4.56 gears to keep the effective ratio at 4.30 or above. What gear ratio does your EX have to start with? Is your EX a 4X4? If so both axles will need to be redone with new gears, about $2k total depending on your location and the shop chosen.
The Hellwig rear (anti) sway bar is a great addition to our trucks, and the new design of Hellwig's end links allows for some adjustability, nice improvement over the older style I used.
As for towing your 7k camper, make sure those tires are load range E, and invest in a good (or better than good) weight distribution hitch with sway control. The factory springs on our EXs can be a weak link while towing heavy, you may be OK at the weight you plan to pull, or not......... A good test run with your camper loaded up will let you know. Respringing to a good set of F-250/350 springs is fairly easy and can be done by almost anyone with a helper, they are heavy. Lots of info here on spring swaps, that's a pretty common mod for EXs. My upgraded springs made my Ex into a new truck! I pulled a 31' 9.5k lb ToyHauler with mine for 3 years and over 20k miles, it was unpleasant to say the least with the stock suspension. With the new heavier springs it is a joy to drive and all of the past handling issues are history.
