Need a quick answer fast involving 7.5 Fabtech lift

Hey guys I've stumbled across a great deal on a Fabtech 7.5" lift kit. Now I know lift spindles from a 97-03 f150 work on an expedition but are the crossmembers and everything the same if I get the complete Fabtech kit? I need to know tonight if anyone has insight on this.

Sounds good man. If your interested, if this transaction goes through I will be selling the u bolts and 5" blocks but we will see how it goes. The rear part of the kit is useless to me. I know your truck already has the lift so I'm assuming its of no benefit to you.

Nice man! I am positive it will bolt right up. I wouldnt need the blocks and U-bolts though because I have the fabtech set-up in the rear already.

Gotcha. I know you have the lift already but for some reason I guess I thought you had a different type of lift. Hmmm

Up front I do, but in the rear I am running the exact same set-up that the fabtech lift gives you. Minus the shocks.. I am running DTS-3000s.

Haha if I get the lift I gotta figure out the tire situation. I can run the 35s and still be fine since I have such a wide stance it will still look good but I wanted 37s in the beginning. These tires only have like 400 miles on them.

Haha he would have to get 20s before he could run my tire anyway. Should be finalizing the deal today. Its the black kit so I'm pretty happy that it will match my rear Fabtech kit. Hopefully I'll have it on by next weekend so I can take it to muddi gras!
