i have recently noticed that my explorer is riding alot rougher than it used to. It basically feels like i have no suspension at all. what would be the easiest/cheapest way to fix it so i can have a smoother ride. (NOTE: I dont do much, if any, off roading)

New shocks would be a good start.
 






New shocks would be a real good start. How many miles are on this vehicle? If your in the 125K+ range, you might want to change them.

its got around 123k so yea i guess it would time to change the shocks. with that being said what brand/kind would yall recommend. (suspension really is not my dept. so bare with me)
 






get soem monroes from Autozone they will last you forever and are excellent shocks for the person who just wants to ride around town.

you mihg talso take it to a alignment shop and have them check your springs.... they could have sagged over time causing you to hit the bumpstop more frequently than you did b4.
 






is there any lift whatsoeve on your explorer??
