New Shocks on Mountaineer

Feb 04, 2008 2 Replies

It was suggested that I replace the shocks on my 2003 Mountaineer V8 with about 70,000 miles.



What should I replace them with? More OEM shocks (the originals seemed fine when new)? I also understand that Mountaineer and Explorer use different shocks. Does this difference have any bearing on what I should have installed as replacements?


I replaced the originals on my '92 with Bilsteins and I was happy with them.

Suggested by whom? The person selling them? Seems little early to be replacing shocks unless they are obviously bad or leaking so make sure you get a 2nd opinion.
