Good news for Excursions with the lower leaf spring overload suspension set-up.
Torklift Stableloads will help with ride and control, and for those experiencing sag and sway.

They improve drivability by pre-activating the factory leaf springs and putting the factory suspension into play sooner.
They will easily disengage in seconds for the factory ride when not towing or hauling.

Many have used these prior to adding expensive airbags or other aftermarket suspension upgrades with great results.
See the product in use here on FTE:

StableLoad - Lowest Cost, Most Effective Suspension Upgrade Available

I have heard of a few guys taking the overload spring from the rear of the F250/350 and modding it into the front like an add a leaf? Any truth to this? I have access to v codes for front and s code for rear with overload. would put my Ex up a little in front.

Welcome the best place on the web for Ex info, advice and help!

I used the top overload single leaf from my rear B codes on my front X codes for a little extra ride height.

This picture shows a stock B code at the top, stock X code in the middle and my modded X codes, with the extra overload leaf added on the bottom.
