Thanks for the additional pictures. Really like the setup. I might have some trouble with a 270 on the Ex because it has a tailgate that lifts up a bit. might have to tinker around with an alternative. or just have a dome off the back and an awning on the side. Not ideal so going to keep...

2005 Ford Excursion 6.0L diesel. Lift, new springs, billstein shocks, 315 Cooper STT tires, Baja AR172 rims, power-stop brakes and the list is just starting. Built an aux fuse panel today for accessories that will eventually be added. Thanks to the community for showing me how to build it.

- New U bolts
- 2" hanger kit

In roughly the same boat and same general geography. 2005 6.0 Excursion and just getting started. If you want to compare notes or build plans let me know.
Looks great! I just started the “journey” have a 2005 Excursion 6.0. This is the “before” picture.
Will will post a “now” picture soon.
