ICON 2000-05 Ford Excursion 4.5" Lift Drop Hanger Suspension System

The ICON 2000–2005 Ford Excursion 4.5" Lift Drop Hanger Suspension System raises the front of the Excursion 4.5" by relocating the stock front springs downward, preserving the factory spring rate while creating clearance for 35" x 12.50" tires. A 5" rear block kit with 17" U-bolts is included to level the stance front to rear. The system ships as a single kit covering all 2000–2005 Excursion applications, with a note that 2001–2004 builds receive a replacement front cross-member.

Shipping: ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground. Lead times vary by part and some items are built to order, so please allow extra time. We email tracking as soon as your order ships.

Spring Drop Design Keeps the Factory Ride

Rather than replacing the front springs, the drop hanger method lowers the spring perch 4.5", achieving the full lift height while the stock springs remain in place. This approach delivers 4.5" of ground clearance and tire room with no new spring break-in period and no change to the spring rate the truck was engineered around.

Rear Leveling Included

The kit includes a 5" rear block kit and 17" U-bolts, so the rear of the Excursion rises to match the front lift. Purchasing a separate rear leveling component is not required; everything needed for a leveled stance is in the box.

Bolt-On Installation, No Driveshaft Work

The system requires no drilling, cutting, or welding. The stock front driveshaft remains fully functional, and no front driveshaft modification is needed. A 1.75" bump stop spacer is included to limit suspension travel at the top of the cycle and reduce spring fatigue over time. Note that this is a stand-alone kit and must not be combined with any other aftermarket suspension kit.

Who This Is For and Isn't

This system suits 2000–2005 Ford Excursion owners who want 4.5" of front lift and clearance for 35" tires while retaining the factory spring rate and stock front driveshaft. It is a complete front-and-rear leveling kit requiring no additional lift components.

This kit does not fit any Ford Excursion outside the 2000–2005 model years, and it is not compatible with any other aftermarket suspension kit installed on the same vehicle. Tires larger than 35" x 12.50" may require fender trimming and additional modifications not included in this kit.

Common Questions

Does this system work with the stock Ford Excursion wheels and tires?

Yes, the ICON Excursion 4.5" Drop Hanger Suspension System is confirmed compatible with OEM wheels and tires. For buyers moving to aftermarket wheels, ICON Alloys in 17x8.5", 18x9", and 20x9" at 6mm offset are the recommended fitments for this lift height.

Does the front driveshaft need to be modified or replaced?

No front driveshaft modification is required. The stock front driveshaft on the 2000–2005 Ford Excursion remains fully functional with this 4.5" Drop Hanger Suspension System installed.

What is included for the rear of the truck?

The kit includes a 5" rear block kit and 17" U-bolts to raise the rear of the 2000–2005 Ford Excursion and achieve a leveled stance. No separate rear leveling purchase is needed.

Can this kit be combined with other aftermarket suspension parts already on the vehicle?

No. The ICON Excursion 4.5" Drop Hanger Suspension System is a stand-alone kit and must not be used in conjunction with any other aftermarket suspension kit. Installing it alongside other lift or leveling components is outside the intended application.

Do 2001–2004 Excursion builds receive any additional components?

Yes. On 2001–2004 applications, the 4.5" Hanger Kit comes complete with a new replacement front cross-member that takes the place of the factory crossmember. This component is included in the kit for those model years.
