Excursion "Large Marge"

[Colin.h]

Build thread for my 2000 Excursion. I'll post what pics I have up to its current state. Front end is Giant beams and steering, Solid coilovers. Its on 40s w/ Raceline beadlocks. Hanneman fenders. I'm gathering a few things before I start the rear w/ Giant links, Solid c/o and bypasses.

That's awesome, I have always wanted to build and excursion like that! What motor?

Updating front end today, waiting on hardware for bedsides

This McNeil kit is nice, had to tab the header for different lights and grill but everything fit relatively great all things considered.

Mounted the rest of the glass over the weekend and made bumpers, the rear looks outrageous with the tow stuff still on so no backshots. Little did I know I’d need to drop the tank to remove the tow package and filled up beforehand. Next up is trussing the housing and a few things before links/tubes can be added

Got it back from paint today
