here's a link to Auto Spring's website:
http://www.autospringcorp.com/produc...expedition.htm

at the bottom of their page you can link over to Ebay, that's where you buy it from them... I used paypal and had my AS2 kit in about 3 days, it ships from Idaho... remember, the AS2 lifted my front a full 2.5", and I've heard others on this site say the same thing...

I've had my AS2 in now for a week and have driven about 250 miles, pulled my motorcycle trailer on some washboard roads, then on a rutted out bumpy 4 wheel drive road, on the highway going 80mph... all is good with the kit so far... the new ride stance is 'night and day' compared to stock... alot more fun to drive!

My brother in law and I installed the 2" AS on his 04 and my 06. It took us about 3 hrs to do both trucks and that is with me washing the inside of my wheels/tires. The ride seems to be a tad bit stiffer after putting about 2K miles on since. You will notice the difference when getting in, washing, driving, and working on the engine. Overall I am very satisfied with how it looks. When the truck gets more miles on it and the warranty runs out, I'll probably go with a 6" lift.

I originally had a leveling kit before my 6" and you can only get away with 33" tires. 35" will RUB....

I got mine off Ebay, I looked at all the kits on there for about 2 months and just picked up two kits, one for me and one for my friend. I feel most of them are going to be the same material, other then the poly spacers which I would stay away from.
I believe 33 is the biggest with no real lift kit as well.

That is good to know. I am looking at Rough Country's 2.5 inch leveling kit and was trying to do some research on what size tire would fit best.
This is my daily driver (and I have a full size Bronco that I have built out to play with) so I wanted to make sure of the best combination.
I was looking at the new **** Cepek Crusher tire in the 33" x 12.50" x R15 size to replace the Pirelli Scorpion tires on 20" wheels that the truck came with.

Do these work just as well on a 06 STX 4X2 ?
