I had the ATS X,C, and Bilstein 5100's installed just a last month. The soccer mom mushy suspension is all gone. The EX drives more like a truck.




A before and after comparison



And with Jr's X

 

 

Yes. They are 275/75/18 at ~34.2" tall.

 

Yes I have stock springs but with F350 blocks that are 4" instead of 2" that came factory on 4x4 Excursions.


Only x codes and blocks, 275/65 20" tires a little over 34".

 

I think I'm gonna order the X/Modded c'S now that my taxes don't look terrible. I have had mine since 2005 and have a mini spring pack in front and RAS in rear, but they are pretty much shot and creaking a bit. it's time...

 

I just put on the V and C from ATS and it is so much better. The handling is great, the bumps and potholes are not throwing me into another lane anymore. I got about 2 inch lift over worn out stock springs. Junior with ATS really knows his stuff.

 

I have the same setup. I am switching over to Rancho adjustable shocks though...as soon as I can spend the extra cash.

 

V and C from ATS were recently installed on my 2000 7.3. It's a noticeable difference over stock indeed. Junior at ATS is extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. I'm installing some factory 2004 18" rims and Michelin tires in 275/70/18 this week.

 

They are the BEST! IMHO :-)

 

I have the ATS X and mod C from Junior on my Ex with no additional lift and 33s on it now. Planning on 275/65R20 with 4.56 gears or 35s with 4.88 soon without adding more lift. Love the way it rides, like a truck should.

 

I have used oem X codes & Modded B codes with 5100's. No additional lift. It netted 2" over stock in my case.

I run 305 70 18 Coopers, full 35" tire.

With 35k on this setup my shocks are shot and need replaced.

I'm going to research replacements now.

I like the added height and firmness. I have to assume brand new springs would be a little stiffer yet.

I also run f&r Hellwigs.

Has anyone run 325/60R20 (35.5") tires with just the ATS X and C?

 

A Roder, I love your setup, ride hight, bumpers, exhaust.
What are the kids for your ex? At least the short list for the visible ones.

 

Thank you,
Kids? I got 6! Lol
