conversion problems ..ive read everything

[brianwhite]

I went to order the Monroe 90010 kit today and wanted to go through a local parts store and I'm being told that the 250$ (approx) kit is 2 wheel only ..I really only need the front shocks but I'd buy everything if the price is decent..does anyone have info on that or the direct link on the exact kit..I tried anvanced and gave them a part number and told me it was for a door handle..so they're clearly *********...99 expy 4x4 5.4...I found that kit on amazon for 239 but noe confused as to weathers its 2wheel or 4..

There are 2 kits for the 99, 2wd kit is part #90005 the 4wd kit is 90010, you can get it from rock auto for $203.56. Both kits are front AND rear.

It has been discussed that the front shocks in the conversion kit are the same as the rear shocks for a 1966 bronco, coilovers Monroe 58518.

You don't "need" the front kit!!!
I did mine on the rear only. Then I removed the air shocks and replaced with standard rear shocks from a 74-79 F-150. To level the ride I adjusted the torsion bars up.
Granted. the air ride t-bars are a little softer than a non air ride t-bar, but I have seen no issues whatsoever! Even towing my 24' travel trailer at 70+mph on the freeway.

tl:dr Install rear kit and swap front shocks and adjust the t-bars

mine was done on the cheap, rear coils and front standard t-bars from the junkyard new shocks... on the front i used rear shocks from a 66 bronco total investment was $120

Why not spend the extra $80 and do it properly then............

why use a bandaid of coil over shocks on the front when you can put in standard or 7700 torsion bars?
