Questions about lifting an excursion
hey guys had a few questions on lifting my 2005 ford excursion diesel. I was looking to go between a 4 and a 6 inch lift. I have been looking at the rancho 4 inch system with rear add a leafs from www.4wheelonline.com and was wandering if anyone has used this lift and if so can post me some pics. I have also looked at the 5 inch super lift and the skyjacker all spring 6 inch lift and icon 5 inch system. But I am confused by how the icon system says new 4 inch springs front and 5 inch rear springs also superlifts says 5 inch front and 4 inch rear why arent they even for the front and rear? Because the rancho system says 4 inch front and 4 inch rear. I just want it to look level and plus I am going to be hauling a camper eventually and was wandering if I can use air bags in the rear with none stock springs? also if anybody has some pics they can show me of either of the lifts mentioned above would be great I was planning on using 35" tires with 18" wheels. Also one other question if I went with a 6 inch lift would I have to extend the driveshaft. thanks

It's the Excursion forum. You'll find the info you're looking for there and should be able to get some great advice from those folks. Good luck!
