[QUOTE="Ernie Longino, post: 553355, member: 62052"] you'll find plenty of info. Basically, Ford installs undersized shocks that need to be replaced very early in the life of the Trac (like mile one if you listen to some here). I had the same issue with our '01 and lived with it for way to long. After finding this site, I realized that I needed to break down and spend the money to resolve the issue. We replaced the shocks with Monroe Reflex's, replaced the cupped Goodyear’s with BFG LongTrail TA's and had the front end aligned (bought the one year warranty so I can have it aligned every 3-5k for the next year). You wouldn't believe the difference in the ride ... It's amazing. Next up for me is the Explorer Express (EE) Swaybar, which should put the final touch on it. [/QUOTE]
