I have the hankook dynapro atm tires which are set around 40 psi. Seems like I need to lower the tire pressure. I have a 18' with 30k Miles on this tire and I feel it can be very bumpy at times. However I am coming from German crossovers that typically had suspension upgrades.

I have a XLT 202A package not sure what springs.

Personally I live in Maryland probably need to swap the tire out to a better one could help. Would be okay spending money on better shocks and springs if given the option. Haven't really found a solid place that would do that for me around here.

XLT is the base model, 202A is the non-barebones interior option kit

Your suspension is basic

I have this same package and I'm planning on doing suspension upgrades. When I've done this on other vehicles, shocks/struts have made a huge difference. I put Bilstein 5100s and BFG TKO's on my Tundra and they transformed the truck into something I enjoyed driving.

If cost and complexity were not an obstacle, putting a Raptor Suspension on the Expedition would be my favorite option, but that's not practical or possible (live axle vs. IRS).

What do folks recommend doing to the basic suspension Expedition? Are there FX4 parts available to transform the basic suspension? I'm just looking for options....

Dunno about 4th gen, but on 3rd gen I think you could get Raptor front end stuff??? Then again not sure if it could be aligned correctly without custom/aftermarket parts (Raptor is supposedly wider than F150 right?), maybe camber plates or weird control arms needed
