[QUOTE="Frank Maleno 2, post: 1027598, member: 72996"] The Ford garage recommended that I replace my rear shocks saying they were very rusty and they are the OEM from 2005. Well I've never paid anybody to replace something simple as shocks so I order a pair of KYB gas adjustable shocks. I received them last Friday and after work I climbed under the ST only to find what was going to be a very difficult job. The top mounts are almost impossible to see let alone get a wrench on. Well long story short it ended up taking almost 2 hours and almost every tool in the box to get these F#%King things off and in the process I found the drivers side leaf spring shackle is badly rusted and cracked (something the Ford garage neglected to tell me) So I ordered a pair and that's the next job on my list.
