Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2008 Ford Expedition

Question

Question:

Looking for a kit that would work with my 08 expedition. My expedition does not have factory airbags but does have the coil over shocks. I pull a heavy camper and want to keep the vehicle more level. Also do you have an application with a compressor to adjust on the fly?

We have suspension enhancement that fits your 2008 Ford Expedition but we do not have an air bag style for your vehicle. Instead we have the SumoSprings part # CSS-1168R which installs easily by fitting through the coils at the rear suspension. It also doesn't require any maintenance once installed like air bags do as they require inflating and deflating to get optimum support. This gives you the support you need and requires no adjusting.

The 7290 that you see is a casting number. It is found on AL-KO hubs that fit #99 spindles. I found that the bearings used are #28580 which would be the inner bearing and #25580 which would be the outer bearing. For the seal use #91030.
