2003 E-550 Super Duty Help

Hi everyone,

I need to know if anyone can help me please find out about my 2003 E-550 Super Duty. I have trying to find shocks, (Other then OEM) for my truck. So far 7 out of 8 Ford Dealers have never even heard of the E-550. Told me I do not have one and they do not exist.

Spoke with a couple of shock companies and cannot help either. They ask to find out what else might crossover.

I trying to find out if the F-650 or 750 are based off the same chassis as the E-550 or not. The F-53 motorhome chassis is totally different.

It does have leaf spring front with a GAWR of 6,000 lbs. Solid forged I-beam axle with gas shocks. 35mm bore and 580mm extended length.

The rear is 11,500 lbs. 35mm bore shock shaft and 703mm extended length.

But I would appreciate any info. that can be shared or a direction to be pointed in.

Thank you.
Robert

Welcome to FTE, Mr.Lee!

Wow, an E-550? I thought at first that was a typo, but I guess not.

If you go to this site and look up the shocks based on mount type, length, bore and such you'll probably find what you need.

Then go here to find a dealer.

Your average local car parts store probably won't have what you need, or know how to locate it.
