I am a proud owner of a 1999 SE but lately the suspension has been giving me hell... Everytime I hit a bump or go over something even small, it clunks and slams and just don't seem normal. I have seen postings about the sway bar and this n' that but everything with it seems to check out ok. Can you help?

I put the airlift springs on my 2001 E150; the best thing you could do! It rides better than most cars. I travel the PA turnpike a lot and the additional springing prevents a lot of the side to side motion you get when going throuhg the "twisty's". It was well worth the money spent.

Hey Tony, Thanks for the reply. Think I will put the Firestone Air spring on my van now. Can wait to order them. Thanks! Joe

Does the air springs affect the rear brake proportioning valve thus affecting the braking??
