Thanks to everyone. As for the moldings I still have residue on mine that I have not yet buffed out but I used the eraser wheel that attaches to a drill and it took most of it off. I still have to work it though to get it where it needs to be.

The rear setup is 6" Fabtech lift springs for a 4x4 lift kit. I just bought the rear kit for my 2wd and it bolts right up. It sells on 4wheelparts for 350 I believe. Heres a picture of the rear setup. I converted it from the factory airbags.


The expedition is my daily driver and the truck in the background is a F250 gas. Its got 4.88s and 41" IROKS on a 6" procomp lift with a 3" body lift. Its a weekend warrior.


The chevy sitting next to it is on 35s.

Yeah its only about an inch high in the front but you don't notice it and I think it looks really good. Truck still has a lot of pickup with the 35s but it is still a noticable loss but not as bad as I expected. Gas on a good day is probably around 10-11.

Yeah in the future but not anytime soon. When I get closer to getting new tires again I will swap them out for 4.88s. Seems to high but I plan on running 37s, 38s, or maybe some 39" IROKS. So 4.88s will be good for that size.

Spindles, blocks, and spacers are in the classifieds to anyone who is interested.
