Love the truck.
Great looking Ex, were are you rubbing? Those look like some wide 35's, and I am guessing you are rubbing on the leaf springs.
Be careful on the airbags for the excursions, the ones that get called out usually are the in-board ones, and not as heavy duty as the outboard ones for the superduty's. I am pretty sure you can make the superduty ones work. I am currently trying this on our 02 Ex.

Speaking off..... If anyone out there has an Ex set-up similarly to Tony's that they want to sell, give me a shout as I may be of interest. Thx.

the tires are 35x 13.50 the truck came with a 5.5 inch lift kit i took it off and installed x code springs the tires rub a little i will probably go one size smaller with the tires i am just waiting to get everything finished up . no issues with the motor no puking antifreeze but the truck only has 46K on it.
