Wahid unregistered	posted May 02, 2000 08:06 PM I forgot to mention one more thing in my previous post. I know this is not the right place for this post. Is there another shocks which would give me a little softer ride? Wahid IP: Logged
Bill G. unregistered	posted May 02, 2000 10:50 PM Sorry, missed your follow-up the 1st time! Check out Edelbrock IAS's - don't know if it comes in your application, but it has a valve that's supposed to soften for highway use and stiffen when you need it to. It will probably not make a huge difference though, s(ince the stock shocks are not that stiff. The last Explorer I drove was a rental on my last ski trip and it felt like a big station wagon.) Most people who dive SUV's want the stiffer ride for the improved response and resistance to "bottoming out" against the bump stops when off-road. Have you driven other SUV's that have the ride you are looking for? I'm not aware of any which have a "soft" ride. IP: Logged

THey are fairly cheap and last a long time. Motortrend TV just had a show where about them. They tested a Jeep Cherokee and found massive improvements in ride comfort and roadholding. IP: Logged
