Description

Configured with FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks, this kit delivers maximum on- and off-road performance. FOX 2.0 shocks feature a 2-inch impact extruded aluminum body, an internal floating piston (IFP) monotube design, CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum mounting ends, a massive 5/8-inch hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft, race-developed high-flow piston design, application-specific valving, and a long-lasting clear anodized finish.

Overview

This 8-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for the 2000-2005 Ford Excursion 4WD, providing improved stance, performance, and capability with clearance for up to 36-inch tires. Up front, the kit includes Glide-Ride leaf springs, a forged drop pitman arm, a track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar links, bump stop brackets, and precision-tuned shocks. In the rear, the kit utilizes a replacement Glide-Ride full leaf spring pack, u-bolts, and a matching set of shocks. BDS engineered the Glide-Ride leaf springs with a multi-leaf progressive spring rate design using an exclusive triple-stage configuration to provide a smooth ride under any load, reduce axle wrap, and maintain flexibility throughout the suspension cycle. A forged drop pitman arm and heavy-duty track bar drop bracket work together to minimize steering angle and keep steering geometry in phase through suspension travel while recentering the front axle.
