they are made for SuperCrews but I have seen them on supercabs before in some pictures. I think they required some trimming but I'm not positive.

Yeah, they make them for the scabs, but the screws you need to trim a bit to make them fit as the screw / expedition have a little different design. Maybe you need more than trimming, I didn't look too much into it because I don't have an screw lol.

I think it's the other way around. I know a member on here that has a scab and he said he had to trim them to fit perfectly. The one that rear ended a semi.. can't remember his username haha

I was replying to Ford Fan#1 as he thought that they fit without trimming on the screw, but needed trimming on the scab.

the expedition ones don't need trimmed on the supercrews but the GM style is not long enough for supercrews.
