parts looking

i have a 2001 excursion. working on it the other day, i noticed the front bump stop and the sway bar end links are really rotten.accually one bump stop was missing and the other was on its way out. can you get these made in poly? if so any idea where to buy?

Try this

Alot of folks have used these.

Energy Suspension Parts: 4WD Super Duty (1999 - 2004 Models), Ford F250 4WD SD 1999

Once you find the kit you want, I have found them for less on Amazon and ebay on occasion.

I just replaced my sway bar bushing with the energy suspensions kit. Night and day difference in the ride quality. Here's my thread I started: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...nks-today.html

kits

energy sup. just emailed me back and said that kit would not fit an excursion. i find it hard to believe that ford made a diff setup for the x and the 250 of the same year. i had already bought it. if it doesn't fit i'll post it here.

If energy suspention doesnt fit, Give Ed or Clay a call. Also you can pick up a set of Moogs im sure from your local parts store of your choice.

bump stop

the only reason for the bump stops are one has rotted off and the other front is on its way out. the end links are $66 apiece. i was not very happy with the amount of time they lasted.

I have the energy suspension endlink bushings, the only complaint is when it's real wet out they start squeaking...as long as their dry they are fine....maybe I didn't grease them well enough when I instaleld them

it looks like everthing is a go for the kit to be used on my excursion. the only diff is the sway bar is larger on the excursion than the 250. so the swat bay bushing is a no go.
