Then you are in luck, because I will help you in this matter and give you some very important information about lift kits. Of course, you have a lot of questions about installing lift kits, and I’m going to answer all of them here. Well, let’s get started!

Installation Type of Lift Kit

About Getting a Lift Kit InstalledAs you might guess, lift kits are created by manufacturers according to certain requirements and by the kind of drive train. If you look inside the kit itself, you’ll see strut spacers, coil springs, and lift blocks. According to the kind of kit installed, complementary modifications to the brake lines, or driveshaft length may be required to provide safe and appropriate running characteristics.

Body Lift or Suspension Lift

In this matter, it’s up to you to decide which kind of lift you prefer.

On the one hand, by means of a body lift kit, you’ll have to utilize spacers to raise the cab’s height. On the other hand, a body lift has no effect on ground clearance. However, using big tires is a great benefit. Or maybe you have a desire to drive your Ford off-road? Then think about the second variant.

Should I do it on my own?

About Getting a Lift Kit InstalledIf you’re going to set up your private Ford Lift Kit, you don’t have to do it! You’re likely to get a lot of problems as a consequence. The most important thing to remember is that this activity is a total overhaul of your SUV’s chassis, and it’s a very serious undertaking. But unless you are an expert, I do not advise you to deal with this yourself.

Tips

I will now make you aware of a few important things when purchasing a Lift Kit for Ford Excursion:

Did You Know the Difference Between Big Tires and Traditional Tires?

If not, here’s the answer. Depending on their weight or size, tires can cause brake wear, which will definitely affect your stopping distance. Consequently, your ability to tow and accelerate may also be lost.

Be Prepared for Minor Modifications

You’ll probably lengthen your brake lines, driveshaft, and U-joints. However, be aware that if your transmission’s steering angle is changed by more than ten degrees, it could mean more stress on the transfer case.

Additional Accessories

Because of extreme lifts, you may need these accessories. I suggest that you use an advanced sway bar and steering damper to provide lateral stability. However, without the improvement, you risk your safety and the vehicle itself.
