Needed: FORD part numbers for the LS "European" shocks.

[2006kmls]

Has anyone here ran these shocks yet and what is the part number. I have a 2005 LS and I want to try them out.

I understand there are 3 shocks available for the LS?

Regular
Sport
European

Who has tried the European shocks?

Quick...would you reccommend the "Euro" shock?

The thread you posted is for all models up to 2003. Do you think the 2005 and 06 use the same shocks?

the ride will be more 'stiff' - but yes - that is the way the LS was meant to drive.

Ford had to 'up' the handling when the LS went to europe it had to compete against the best of the sedans.

Talk to Bill Jenkins. There is a difference between the 00-02 and 03+.

I had mine changed at the dealer recently, they were $83 or something each, so the total came up to $612 all together. Ride is really good, handling is as good as before, mine is sport 2001.

You are correct. The 2003 and up LS uses different part numbers. I don't have those yet. Also, the shocks will be up on my website soon. The Leda's are already there.
