- Explorer Sport Trac 2002
Hello Everyone,
I'm in the midst of changing the shocks in my Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2002. I've successfully changed the rear shocks but ran into a proplem with my front shocks.
I have no problem taking of the old shock. My problem is with the new shock. It doesn't seem to extend fully to reach the top mount. This doesn't allow me to lock the new shock in with the bolt.... because the threads do not reach past the washer and rubber bushing.
I double checked with the auto parts store and they confirmed that these are the correct shocks. Any tips on getting it to work or are they the incorrect shocks?
The part number for the shocks are: Monroe 32296
Hope that helps.
Respects,
Lhalyam
