The fab tech is the best product on the market for what I have seen so far. But the Zone is usually the cheapest and as long as it comes with the complete kit including springs and shocks it does just fine.

I have the Rancho 4" lift and it's plenty high. It looks like a 6" lift. I have the Bilsteins on it and it drives smooooth! Plus I think Rancho kits may be cheaper than the FabTech. Seriously look into the Rancho. Or do a search and check out my truck.

FYI - Just had mine lifted and Fabtech had to fabricate the rear coils as they are discontinuing the 6" kit for the 1st gen Expeditions (according to 4wheel Parts).

got t-boned in my truck last week trying to make a left turn, in the body shop for 2 weeks to the tune of almost 2k in body work, paint, and parts to straighten the truck out.
Once again... lift is on hold but I think I'll be going with the fabtech ebay for 2000, then new wheels, tires, and gears
I think this truck just doesnt want to be anytaller cuz when ever I get the money together for the lift something bad happens and it eats up all the money

Expeditionary, save the hassle, buy my truck. Cheaper in the long run (since I have done everything you are looking at doing except I have the 4" rancho vice the 6" Fabtech). He he he he he.
