suspension questions
Two questions:
what is the benefit to changing out the Excursion to F250 springs? I keep reading about B or D springs something along that lines
Next has anyone swapped to the 05-07 front coil spring set up? how did it improve your ride? was it worth the money?
Looking to lift my X a bit more and looking into options.

Unfortunately this created a situation where the leaf springs will have too much side deflection which allows a rear-steer scenario to occur. The problem is especially dangerous and exacerbated when towing.
To eliminate the problem, the most common method is to swap out the springs for leaf springs Ford put on the F trucks.
You can find COPIOUS amounts of information on this (and many other tech related subjects) in the tech folder thread stickied at the top of the Excursion forum thread listing page.
