The Firestone Single Gauge HD Compressor kit part # F2097 would be a great way to monitor air pressure and inflate the bags of the Firestone kit part # F2255 that fits your 2001 Ford Excursion but you do not have to use a compressor at all if you don't want to. You could get by without a compressor at all installed on your vehicle and just inflate the bags at home if you wanted. view full answer...
Yes. There is drilling required to install the AirLift # AL57340 on your 2005 Ford Excursion, but if you're looking for an installation that doesn't require drilling then I recommend using the AirLift # AL88154. These air bags will mount using existing holes in your vehicle's frame, so they're much easier to install. I actually like these particular bags a bit more since they've got an internal jounce bumper that helps protect the bags if they're ever not quite inflated enough and provides... view full answer...
The orientation of the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 does not matter. We have tested it on vehicles with 7-way's oriented in all different directions and it has performed flawlessly. The range for this device is 50' so as long as your motorhome is not longer than this then there should not be any issues. The 12 volt circuit on the 7-way must be active for this device to work, that is all. view full answer...
To access the correct port to insert # 3035-P, you may need to remove the dash panel on the driver side under the steering column. The connector you need will be on the far right, near the center console area. I have included a link to the instructions for reference and a link to a video showing installation on a similar truck. The video will give you the best idea of where to look for the connector and what it looks like so you will know it when you see it on your truck. view full answer...
You will naturally be better off if your shop does NOT break off the factory weld nuts when removing the OEM hitch from the frame rails on your 2001 Excursion. Given the vehicle's age its quite likely that the bolts securing the OEM hitch will have some rust. Application of a solvent like PB Blaster or WD40 will help dissolve that accumulated corrosion and give them better odds of getting the hitch off without damage so that you can install either Curt hitch # C14011 or TorkLift # TLF1006.

The Wide-Track Wheel Assembly, # F500266, fits a specific jack, the Fulton F2 Adjustable A-Frame Jack, # F1413250334. The assembly slides up into the bottom of the jack tube and the pin goes through the holes. There is no cutting or welding required. I made a video showing the installation of a wheel in the jack for you.
If you are trying to install the wheel on a different jack, it will not be compatible. If it is a different jack model, let me know what it is, and I can see if there... view full answer...
You are right that the gray port is right next to the diagnostic port under the dash on your 2002 Ford Excursion for the brake controller. I have attached a photo that shows where the brake controller port is in relation to the location of the diagnostic port.
I have also attached a helpful article for brake controller installation on Ford full-size pickups you can check out.
In some cases the port can be to the left of the steering wheel under the dash or even behind the vehicle glove box. view full answer...
If your 2000 Ford Excursion has a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector, all you will need is the brake controller and wiring harness like you have stated. You would use # 90885 for the brake controller and # 3035-P for the wiring harness. After installing the brake controller according to the installation instructions (linked for reference) installation would be complete.
If your Excursion came with a factory 4-Way flat trailer connector, you would need an additional part, Adapter... view full answer...
If you are installing just the Firestone Ride-Rite airbags # F2255 without an on-board air compressor like the # F2158, then I would estimate that it should take about 2 hours to install the kit. This estimate is for someone with some mechanical ability, all of the proper tools and automotive experience working at home in the driveway or garage, plus having someone around to help.
A professional may take less time depending on how many similar installations they have done. Individual results... view full answer...
Yes, I do have an idea regarding the Out of Stroke issue you are seeing on the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC675817. According to the instruction manual, the issue is likely a bent or damaged jack (or jacks), especially since you have already done the manual override.
To replace the bent or damaged jacks you will need either the Replacement Right Jack # LC344792 or Replacement Left Jack # LC305339. view full answer...

You will need to determine the flow of the transmission fluid in order to install the aftermarket cooler in-line with the factory.
The fluid needs to travel from the transmission, to the factory cooler, to the aftermarket cooler, then back to the transmission. One of the fittings on your transmission should be marked RETURN. Trace this line back to the factory cooler.
Disconnect this line from the factory cooler, and reconnect it to which ever end of the aftermarket cooler you choose... view full answer...
The Timbren front-axle jounce spring kit that fits your 2002 Ford Excursion 4X4, part # TFF350SD4, installs in place of the vehicle's factory bump stops so their installation should be totally unaffected by the Bilsteins. The kit is a no-drill bolt-on installation that uses included custom brackets and hardware. view full answer...

Yes, the Edge Insight CS2 Comprehensive Gauge Display part # EP84030 will read and display boost levels on your 2001 Ford Excursion with 7.3 PowerStroke engine. There won't be any additional sensors needed for this either as the device comes with everything that you need. I called my contact at Edge to confirm this for you. view full answer...
I have a diagram attached that shows all of the intended connectors from the Deka Battery Isolator # DW08771 to your 2002 Ford Excursion. Terminal E would connect to the an ignition circuit that's hot only when the key is switched on via a 6 amp breaker. When talking to an install technician they advised me that a 2 type alternator is not important when your goal is to just wire in a auxiliary battery.
As long as the circuits are not overloaded or the power is too much for the isolator.... view full answer...
The Derale Transmission Cooler part # D14208 that you referenced is designed to fit your 2005 Ford Excursion as long as you have one of the following transmissions:
E4OD, 4R100, 5R100, or 5R100W
You can remove the crossmember to install the # D14208, but most guys are able to just slide the pan back towards the rear of the vehicle once the bolts are removed and you will be able to remove your stock pan and install the new pan without dropping the cross member. view full answer...
