2000–2006 Ford Excursion Rear Lift Blocks – 4, 6 & 8 Inch Pair
If your vehicle has overload springs, call us for proper U-bolt sizing!
Big SUV. Purpose-built rear stance.
Your Excursion isn't just another pickup build. Give its rear suspension the attention it deserves with Apoc Industries rear lift blocks, offered in 4, 6, and 8 inch sizes. Whether you're planning a lifted family hauler or dialing in a custom Excursion, choose the block size around your complete suspension setup, not just the look you're after.
Built in the USA from CNC-cut, welded steel and finished in black powder coating, these blocks offer an alternative to cast or aluminum blocks. Sold as a pair for the rear axle.
What you're getting
- Three sizes: 4, 6, or 8 inch blocks.
- One pair: two rear lift blocks.
- Steel construction: CNC-cut and fully welded.
- Black powder-coated finish: a clean look with corrosion protection.
- Built-in center pins: for spring and axle alignment.
- Made in the USA.
Fitment and setup
Listed for 2000–2006 Ford Excursion, 2WD and 4WD, with OE-style rear leaf-spring suspension. Rear axle use only; not intended for air- or overload-spring setups.
Block size is not a guarantee of added lift over your current ride height. Plan your selection around any existing rear blocks and the rest of your suspension. Confirm shock travel, brake-line clearance, and the correct U-bolt length for your setup before installation.
Installation and hardware
U-bolts and mounting hardware are not included. Arrange the correct hardware for your selected block size before starting. Installation is bolt-on, with no cutting or welding required for the listed application. Proper axle support and a torque wrench are required.
Never stack lift blocks. Use one block per side. Follow the applicable installation and fastener torque requirements, and check the complete suspension setup before driving.
Choose the size that fits your build
Match your rear block selection to your Excursion's front suspension and intended stance. Unsure which size suits your existing setup? Contact Apoc Industries before ordering so you can plan the build with confidence.

First with Compound Tapers. Built to Stay Centered
Built Better, Not Cheaper. Period
Compound Taper Technology
Apoc Anti-Wrap Lift Blocks are the first ever with exclusive compound tapers. The top taper matches your factory OEM leaf spring angle for perfect seating, while the bottom taper maintains proper pinion angle at your chosen lift height.
The Problem with Standard Blocks
Most lift blocks only correct pinion angle and ignore the leaf spring angle. The taller the block, the further back they push your axle — throwing wheels off-center in the fenders and over-extending your driveshaft, which can damage your transfer case.
Benefits of Apoc Anti-Wrap Lift Blocks
Our heavier-duty steel construction with precision robotic welds delivers zero flex and maximum strength. The anti-wrap geometry keeps your axle centered, protects your drivetrain, and provides a stable ride — perfect for serious off-roaders, daily drivers, and tow vehicles.
FAQ'S
Lift Blocks
Here are some of the most common questions we receive about lift blocks, installation, and related components. Our goal is to help you make the best decision for your build with clear, practical information.
A: Yes. Apoc lift blocks are true to size—the height listed is the actual block height, providing that exact amount of rear lift when installed. For example, a 3" block adds 3" of lift over your current leaf spring height.
A: Apoc lift blocks are vehicle-specific and engineered to match your truck’s factory leaf spring setup. The alignment hole and center pin locations are precisely positioned to match OEM specs, ensuring a secure, direct fit with no modifications required.
The main U-bolts are required to secure the axle and block assembly to your leaf springs. You do not have to purchase them from us if your existing U-bolts are long enough. However, if you are changing the size of your lift block, you will need longer U-bolts. Simply measure the difference in height between your current block and the new block — your new U-bolts will need to be that much longer than your current ones.
Anti-wrap U-bolts are optional. They are designed to secure the wider footprint of the block more firmly to the leaf spring, helping to reduce axle wrap, spring twist, and wheel hop. The taller the block, the more beneficial anti-wrap U-bolts become. For block heights over 6 inches, we recommend also installing ladder bars for added stability and to prevent driveline issues.
A: Standard blocks provide basic lift, while anti-wrap blocks feature a wider footprint and additional bracing to reduce axle wrap and wheel hop—especially important for lifted trucks with big tires or high torque output.
A: No, stacking lift blocks is not recommended and can be dangerous. It compromises stability, increases the risk of axle shift, and can cause premature wear or failure of suspension components. Always use a single, properly sized Apoc lift block for safe, reliable performance.

American-Made. No Compromises
Order With Confidence — But Verify Your U-Bolts
Most Apoc Industries vehicle-specific lift block kits already include U-bolts matched to your application. However, trucks with added leaf springs or overload packs are not accounted for in the standard kit. Please verify your current U-bolt lengths before installing — if anything doesn't match, our customer service team can get you the correct U-bolts and eliminate any issues before you're under the truck.
PRE-INSTALL CHECKLIST: CHOOSING THE RIGHT BLOCK HEIGHT
-
1Measure fender well gap — front and rear with the truck on level ground, measure the gap between the top of the tire and the fender well at the front axle and again at the rear axle.
-
2Calculate the difference more gap in front than rear (e.g. 2" more up front): you need to ADD that difference in the rear — select a block that matches the gap difference. More gap in rear than front (e.g. 2" more in back): you need a block SHORTER than your current one by that difference.
-
3Measure your current rear block height, Measure from the bottom of the existing block to the top where it contacts the leaf spring. Take the measurement at the center/middle of the block — not the front or rear edge. Some blocks are tapered, so the front edge may be shorter than the rear edge; the center gives you the true height.
-
4Calculate your target block height Current block height ± the fender gap difference = your target lift block height. Use this number to select your Size variant.
U-BOLT SELECTOR GUIDE
-
Identify your bend style — There are three bend types: Round bend (nuts sit on top of the leaf spring pack. Inside width typically matches the axle tube diameter.), Square bend (wraps over the top of the leaf spring pack; nuts tighten from below the axle. Inside width on square bends is typically matched to the leaf spring width, not the axle housing.), Semi-round bend (primarily used on Ford Super Duty applications)
-
Measure inside width — Measure the inside dimension between the two long legs of your current U-bolt (leg to leg, inside edge to inside edge). This must match your axle housing width.
-
Measure U-bolt length — Measure the total length of the long legs on your current U-bolts. When adding a taller block, you'll need longer U-bolts to maintain proper thread engagement through the axle plate and nuts.
-
Select your U-bolt option — Use your bend style, inside width, and leg length to select the correct U-bolt variant. If your current U-bolts are borderline on length after adding the new block height, size up.
