Measurement from wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface should be about 3" or so wider on any '05+ rear axle compared to our stock EX rear axles. Ford increased the rears along with the front width (WMS to WMS not track width) when the front suspension changed over to coils for the 4X4 trucks. That's why the '05+ OEM wheels require spacers when used on older rigs like our EXs.

Yeah I measured to the back side of the rotors. I didn't realize they are much deeper on the newer excursions, also wheel back spacing is different
