Broken Rear Springs again!!! NO FORD SPRINGS!!!

[milladog]

Help me out here guys. I replaced my rear springs before and the ford ones broke again with no offroad. I am looking for kyb or monroe or a deal maybe on rancho but I want the fully loaded kind with strut & spring ready to bolt in. If anyone can help me out in finding a deal right now my rear suspension is jammed from the coils and I can only drive to work easy. Not good but gotta make money to buy what I need now. HELP lol

Start at post #27. I left a post on that thread asking him for a report on how it's going with these installed but haven't gotten a reply yet.

Hope this helps out.

is it mainly the 2002 springs?

If so, why not get some 04-05 ones?

Good luck.

I am sure monroe makes a quick strut deal for us. ( I will look around online).

Pretty good price from rockauto. They are vendors here and offer a discount to forum members. Monroe has a promotion going until 5-31-10: buy 4 get a $150 rebate. Oh if I only had $600 laying around..................

Ordered those struttek rears and will get the fronts soon too.

Here are the new rear struts, they are very nice and look tough. Also pics of my X with 3" body lift and 265/75/16 tires. Soon to have Brandons lift spacers hopefully.
