F150 front lift kit on Expedition?
Few years late on this, but I did the Supreme Suspensions 3 inch torsion key and spacer lift on my 2000 EB. The cv shafts are at a sharp angle now with both boots torn, did you guys run into that problem at all?- ShillyDilly

Lift Kits for 1 Gen Suggestions?
Did the Supreme 1-3 inch front with keys and 2 inch rear spacer. Didn't even have to crank the torsion bars much. Definitely puts the cv shafts at a bind, working on a solution for that now. Other than that it's the best kit for the $$$ imo Allowed me to fit 33's on my 2000 EB with a bit of...- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
I just had it aligned and the idler arm was bad. Well, the ball joint on it was at least so that's where that knocking was coming from. Rides like a dream now though. I don't know if I even have the steering assist you're talking about on mine. It has the tow package but not sure if that is...- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
Looks like you got a decent amount of lift. I hate the old man tan too lol I was contemplating taking my running boards off too but until I find something to replace them with they're staying. Did you have any issue with the angle of your front axles changing? Mine makes some noise going...- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
Thanks guys, I really like how it turned out. There's a bunch of rust in the usual places to take care of (rockers/rear fender wells) but for a 2000 in the Mid-Atlantic region, it isn't too bad. After tax time all the champagne/gold trim is gonna be gunmetal like the wheels.- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
Well, finally got the leveling kit installed. Definitely happy with the results. Had to trim the underside of the front bumper a bit for the tires to clear but the 33's fit nicely. Rear only looks like it's squatting due to my stock wheels and tires being in the cargo area. Took around 6 hours...- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
So I won't get the 3 inches of lift I was expecting with the torsion keys? That sucks. Long as I get 2 1/2 I'll be alright. Going with the longer travel Rancho Rs5000's to beef things up a bit- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
Dang, I didn't know the torsion bars were different on mine vs the XLT package. Makes sense I guess cuz I believe an XLT sits just a tad taller than my truck. I found some 33x11.5's for around $650 so I think I'm just gonna go with those considering that's almost an entire paycheck. My current...- ShillyDilly

Quick question regarding 1st Gen expedition
I'm getting ready to level/lift my truck in the next month. 3 in the front with keys and 2 in rear with aluminum spacers. Planning on getting 33's but do you think I'd be able to go up to a 35? I just got these back from powder coating and that's what the 33/35's are gonna be mounted on. 18x9.5...- ShillyDilly
