About this kit

5-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 481.20 is a 5-inch lift kit for the 2000–2005 Ford Excursion 4WD, built around lifted front leaf springs, fabricated anti-wrap rear blocks, and an N3 shock package. It does not fit V8 gas engine models. Rough Country lists the install at 6 - 8 hours, and a downloadable installation guide is available.

This 5-inch lift kit for the 2000–2005 Ford Excursion 4WD covers Eddie Bauer, Limited, XLS, and XLT trims, and skips V8 gas engine applications entirely — confirm your engine first. The front side ships with lifted leaf springs, a track bar drop bracket, sway-bar drop brackets, a pitman arm, U-bolts, and hardware; the rear uses fabricated anti-axle-wrap blocks that replace the factory block, plus U-bolts and hardware. The BOM includes a pair of 4in front leaf springs and an N3 shock kit box. Some wheel and tire combinations in the fitment chart call for trimming.
