My plan was Bilstein 4600s only. Do I need to replace the actual factory springs back to OEM? Not sure how wore out springs get… also, I’d really hate to be a couple grand into this thing. I do plan on keeping it but I don’t want to put 50% of its value into a repair so trying to be semi reasonable
I’m going to upgrade the suspension in our 2012 step by step until I’m happy with its performance. Right now it’s an absolute mess on the road.
Is the right order the following??
1. Bilsteins
2. Rear sway bar
3. Front sway bar?
Does the order of sway bars matter? Front first, rear first??

Interesting post, and I like the approach…
Makes me wonder how many aftermarket IC reports are in some way related to the louvers. I mean you probably remove those if your spending time putting an aftermarket unit in
Now that said… lots and lots of people report favorable results in conditions...
I was going to go either 5-star or gear head on tunes and still researching intercoolers. I know what’s out there for F150s but not sure what fits the Expeditions.
I guess we’ll see what I can get for ours and what I can find on the used market. We have a low mileage 2012 XLT (short wheel...
Loki - I’m one of those guys who can’t leave hood enough alone.. so a tune for sure, maybe IC and intake just because. Also Hellwig bars most likely happen
One thought was save the money on the 17’ for some parts.
Do the load leveling shocks only come on certain packages in the Gen 3?

So we're looking to upgrade into a EB Expedition. We currently have been traveling fulltime for the past year but will be settling back down and looking for the do all rig moving forward.
I'm torn between a Gen 3 EB and a Gen 4. For those of you that have owned both what are your opinions...
That’s gross combined (SUV + Trailer)
just remember there are lots of numbers, all have to be in line to be legit. Gross, payload, rear axle, hitch, etc
Are you having temperature issues? I haven't seen upgrades for the Gen 4 Expeditions out there, but if it shares are radiator with the F-150 (I have no idea if it does) then there would be lots of options I'd think. Could also consider a cooler T-stat which is relatively common in the F150...
Helwig sway bar, Sumo Springs and Bilstein 5100 (i think that's the number) seem to all be popular upgrades.
In order of how I'd do them.. Start with sumo springs, they are cheap ($150 or so) and easy to install. From there probably a coin toss depending on if you actually need new shocks or...
