Hi, I'm curious as to whether or not a 2015 through 2017 expedition has the same rear suspension as an '07 through '14 Expy. By suspension I mean same independent rear suspension, same control arm placement, bolt locations, all of that. I tried looking online for pictures of the '15 rear suspension, but couldn't get close enough pictures of it. Also, (and I thought they were the same but I just wanted to double check), is the front suspension between those years the exact same as well? Like frame, crossmembers, control arms, spindles? Thanks in advance.

All the parts are generally the same but you will run into changes on fastener locations so there is minor differences.

Rear is same. Front was changed in 13 or 14 with how the shock is attached to LCA. Before 14, there was one bolt that ran horizontally through a piece of metal welded to to of LCA. 2014+ models have two bolts from shock assembly that run vertically through the entire LCA.05B256D4-24D9-411F-9877-4F4BEBCD8C6F.png649BB2DF-F54E-4910-A7D3-D295810DC719.png

Is the AdvanceTrac roll stability control system the same between them as well? Any differences in the way it handles?

I don’t believe the ecoboosts have the advanced trac RCS so I wouldn’t know
