I have the factory LL shocks on a 2017 Limited. Rides great with no trailer, but I tow a 6000lb travel trailer with about 600lb tongue weight. These shocks are woefully inadequate. Even with the weight distribution hitch I can't get a good ride. I previously towed the same trailer with a 2011 Expedition with no issues. I felt it sat a little low in the rear, but always a good ride. Ford has no clue or pretends not to. Finally they offered to replace with the same shock....not a solution.

I need a recommendation for a replacement. Seems no one is making one yet. Just had it a trailer specialist who tells me he has seen these shocks on several high end vehicles towing trailers and horses with good results, but he has no good recommendations for me.

Anyone had to replace these and found a good option for towing?

Get what you had on the 2011

Motorcraft if original, or likely Monroe or Rancho or Bilstein if aftermarket
