  post locked   air suspension 06 navigator  

Hello, I have a 2006 Lincoln Nav 5.4 liter (lx I believe) that is nearly dropped to the ground on the front end. I want regular shocks rather than having to troubleshoot all the different parts to air ride and risk more problems later. While part shopping, an O'REILLY guy said I could just buy the f150 shocks and no "conversion kit" needed. Can someone help me figure out what exactly I am shopping for? How's the labor $$? Thanks!

That guy is an idiot. The shocks don't hold the car up and F150 parts don't interchange with a Navigator.

If you can afford to own a Navigator, you should be able to afford to repair it.


PS, you would be very smart to change your user name. This site is trolled by spammers regularly and they will chew up your e-mail.

The truck is not riding low because the shocks hold it up. It is riding low because the airbags have completely deflated. Please have a sense of what you are talking about before replying.

You are the one that seems a bit confused so don't tell me how to respond. YOU stated that you could swap out shocks to substitute for the air suspensions. You won't be doing that. Fix the truck right.

It's OK troll. I'm sorry I meant expedition manual suspension vs f150. If I knew how to do it I wouldn't post on here. Thought I might get some decent help from here. Good luck with your car issues; saw them and think I'll go with someone else's opinion...best of luck to you!

Yep, you just keep listening to the parts salesman at O'Reillys.

If you can't afford to repair a vehicle, don't buy it in the first place.
