Good luck. The explorer is a truck not a car.

What Shocks?

I know someone that put the Edelbrock shocks on his truck. He said they were much stiffer than the factory shocks unless he had a considerable load in the back, and then they seemed to smooth out pretty well. Their own advertising even claims that the shocks give a firm ride on smooth roads. I've never tried them, so I don't have any first hand (seat of pants) knowledge.

Many people around here recommend Bilstein.
