Does anyone know if there any beefed up aftermarket upper control arms for the 2nd gens? Or maybe 04-08 f150 upper control arms will work?
Thanks

No they arent ripped I just know that when I lifted my 03 explorer I had to replace them right away or else it would rip out of the arm and cause major issues. I didn't know if the expeditions had the same issueAre the dust boots currently torn on your upper ball joints ? That would warrant replacing the assembly, or if you notice excessive play at the upper ball joint or bushing area. But the lift load is entirely between the upper shock mount and the lower control arm assembly, not the upper. You will see play and hear knocking from the lower ball joints long before you ever see it in the uppers. If you lift it that much make sure to get the alignment checked afterwards.
