Help pls

[Robert77]

Hi I just do not know what to do!!!

I bought Ford explorer sport 2001 and it’s my firs SUV... I don’t know how it supposed to be but I believe this car should be much comfortable than it is.. The car is so bumpy!! I can feel every small thing in the road so hard!!! First I thought my shocks absorbers are bad or the pressure in my tyres, but everything seems to be fain shocks and the tyre pressure as well... I have no idea what else could be this problem or what to do...

I would appreciate any help pls.. Thanks :yelexp::exp:

Its hard to say without feeling the ride but if you have been used to the ride of cars or car-based chassis an su is a lot different and the short wheelbase adds to the rougher ride.

The Gen 2 (2007-2010) Sport Tracs have a much more car-like ride. If you still have the original Ford shocks on an '01 replace them. They were poor when they were new!

1. Its a truck.
2. A Sport is a very short wheelbased truck.

My 4 door Explorer Limited rides rougher than my 4 door Sport Trac. The Sport Trac has the longest wheelbase of all the Explorer models.
