Hello everyone, haven't been here in a while.
So my shocks are shot! haha, on my 95 limited. And as many of you know they are those air shocks that cost an arm and leg to replace. So i am looking into options of what to replace them with, how, and can i turn off the air ride system without it telling me on the message center that the air ride is off?
The dealership wants $450ish to switch over from air ride to traditional shocks (Motorcraft shocks) and Sears wants $250 to swap out the old air ride shocks with Monroe shocks (the silver ones).
Anywho what do you guys think? How is it done? I know how to change the shocks themselves, but im not quite sure how to disable the air ride system without the message showing up on the message center.
And what type of shocks do you think i should get, this vehicle is never offroad, always on pavement, i know that makes a difference (i want a nice riding shock).
Thanks guys!
