Another wandering Ex thread

I took mt Excursion in and had the rear leaf springs re-arched and added one leaf. Now my ex goes straight and true no more steer steer steer. Next trip in and I will do the front end.

It's been said that the main culprit to wandering has always been the rear suspension. Anything to strengthen the spring pack does wonders for the steering.

Anybody ever use these? They don't list an Ex but I imagine a F250 kit will work.

Active Suspension

Check out Roadmasters Active Suspension I put them on a 95 f250 and now on my Excursion. It took care of my wandering problem. Around $300.00 installed.

i just completed a ProComp 22210/22415 swap on mine (this weekend), and it's a 100% new ride/truck all together. i'll have to re-learn all the quirks all over again. i ended up getting all the springs for $444....... DAM good money spent in my opinion!

glad to hear your wandering is getting taken care of! i didn't realize how bad mine was till i got these springs on!!

i'll have to get pics up here soon! just waiting on shocks to complete the set up.
