shock question
My 2005 Excursion had a lift on it when i bought it, and its time to replace the shocks.
The front of the truck has a dual shock setup.
How do i determine the right shocks to buy ?
below is a pic of the existing setup

I would start with calling BDS and see what they can offer...assuming it is a BDS lift kit.

Call the guys at shock wharehouse and they should be able to help you.
Bilstein Truck Shocks - Shockwarehouse.com
Bilstein makes the 5150 monotube valved for a dual setup.
If those are to spendy they just replace them with what you have or a rough country. ( both are inexpensive twin tube shocks)

Maybe add some split loom around your brake and vacuume line in case that rubbing is degrading the rubber.
