When I bought the Expo it drove somewhat rough and choppy with quite a bit of body pitch and roll. I figured that was due to being top heavy and a truck to boot.

I was wrong.

The previous owner had mounted 10-ply LT tires instead of the recommended 4-ply replacements. That coupled with the 92k miles OEM shocks was the entire problem.

Last week I installed 4 new Monroe Reflex shocks and today we put on a new set of road force balanced Michelin LTX A/T2 tires.
I can only describe the difference as dramatic. The truck rides much smoother and handles better than I ever imagined possible.


If your looking for a great bang for the buck upgrade, simlpy replacing the factory shocks can really make driving your Expo alot more enjoyable.

Nice work! Michelin's are the $hit. If the new A/T2's are anything like the originals...They'll go forever!
