Hi guys I know this topic is long dead, but I was wondering if anyone happen to know the dimensions of these ADS coilovers or any remote reservoir coilovers for the front of a 3rd gen Explorer. I know they don’t sell them but if I had the dimensions of the stroke, compressed and extended rate, as well as the spring rate that would be very helpful. Any responses are helpful thanks 🙏

These are some old pics of ADS coilovers someone ran in the front a long time ago.

I saw on facebook that a guy used 3.5" 8in travel king shocks for the front of his explorer, those seem to be the same size but a different brand. I don't know what he used for spring rate or anything though. He created a custom plate for the top of the shock to mount into the shock tower, I don't know what he did for the bottom of the shocks though.
 






You can find his facebook post on the "Ford Explorers 3rd Generation" group. Just search his name, @tnt Off-Roading
