Anyone know
 






The front always sits lower than the back on a 2WD. How bad of a sag are you talking about?
 






Well about 2inch's in my other post some poeple said use f-150 coil spacer's but i wanted to know how i can tell if the springs are bad that way if they are bad i can replace them frist.
Also my explorer seems to ride rough dont know if this is normal becouse i have been drive a car for about 7 years now.Thats why i asked how i can tell if they are bad thoght maybe they were bad and thats why it rides rough.

Thanks
 






If they are bad, a speed bump will help you out. If the front hits harder than the back, they are bad. I believe coils should have a softer ride than rear leafs.

2 inches on the front sounds about right for a 2WD :)

Thanks i will try to go over a speed bump and see what it dose.I know when i push down on the front it seems harder to push down then the rear.I probly will try the coil spacers to even out the front.

Thanks
