Description

Upgrade your Ford Excursion 2000–2005 4WD with the Tuff Country 22960K 2.5-Inch Lift Kit. Designed for diesel-equipped Expeditions of that era, this complete kit adds noticeable ground clearance while preserving ride quality, making it a smart choice for those expanding tire size or exploring rougher roads.

  • Lift Height: 2.5 inches of front lift to improve clearance and accommodate larger tires without a drastic ride change.
  • Front Progressive-Rate Add-A-Leafs: Adds leaf packs to the existing front springs for a controlled, progressive ride and better load handling.
  • Rear Blocks and U-Bolts: Includes rear axle blocks and U-bolts to secure the new height and maintain proper axle alignment.
  • Track Bar Relocation Bracket: Keeps steering geometry consistent after the lift for predictable handling and reduced wander.
  • Shocks: Not included with this kit; extended shocks are recommended but not required. Factory shocks can be retained to save cost and preserve ride feel.
  • Durable Engineering & Warranty: Backed by Tuff Country’s limited lifetime warranty for long-term confidence in your upgrade.
  • Vehicle Fitment: Specifically built for 2000–2005 Ford Excursion 4WD with a diesel engine, with hardware selected for straightforward installation.
  • Tire Compatibility: Optimized to run up to 33" x 12.5" tires, giving you bold stance and enhanced off-road capability.

This lift kit delivers a practical, user-focused upgrade: more ground clearance for tackling rough roads, room for larger tires, and a reliable, near-stock ride when paired with appropriate dampers. You gain improved approach/departure angles and off-road confidence without swapping out shocks as a mandatory step, thanks to the kit’s compatibility with factory components. With Tuff Country’s lineage of suspension products and a limited lifetime warranty, this kit provides a solid foundation for your Excursion’s next adventure.
