4.6is rear shocks
Could someone tell me who makes the rear shocks for the 4.6? Also has anyone replaced their shocks on the 4.6 with an aftermarket brand? I am having difficulty finding shocks that go with the pneumatic suspension. I have even checked the Bilstein.com site. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks. |
Don't know the brand name off hand, but when I searched ECS and BAV auto's sites they don't have rear shocks for self leveling. May need dealer parts unfortunately.

Does anyone know if the 4.6 is 2-axle self leveling? |
Bilstein makes the OEM shocks

The 4.6is is rear axle air only, not 4 wheel air. Otherwise you would have a ride height adjustment button on the dash to the left of the steering wheel. So those in the link should work for ya :thumbup:
But I think the shocks are different if you have sport suspension (which the 4.6is does). I'd at least call the parts counter at the dealer and have them look up the rear shocks of your X by the last 7 of your VIN, then have them look it up for an 03 3.0i w/rear air for cross-referencing. Just to make sure they are the same before you lose the sport shocks to a bad online purchase. |

put your vin up on real oem....you should have one axle self leveling with sport suspension. get the part number and punch it in to ECS tuning. I just bought mine for a 2004 and a smaller bumper stop because I plan on lowering. the cost is about 290.00each

if you want oem with lifetime warranty, let me know its $250 each plus shipping

Thanks JST, those web sites blew my mind and changed my life, all in one sitting!
