Suspension swap (Escape OEM shocks, springs, and struts)

[Hitman11]

My 2024 Big Bend suspension was so uncomfortable that I decided to replace it with Escape Suspension components. The daily street drive is way more comfortable. Easy and low cost suspension swap for those not happy with the stiff ride. Definitely reduces the off road capability but makes the daily drive way more comfortable.

I’m kind of a noob at suspension stuff but did this have an impact on your ground clearance?

Very minor. I did not measure but I can this weekend and report back.

What parts of the suspension did you swap?
Was it just shocks and springs ? Sway bar ?
How involved was this?
I ask because, I have a spinal injury and every
bit of suspension give, helps.

Why not just buy an Escape then?

My daughter liked the look of the sport better.

Spring and shocks for the comfort.

I also added steeda sway bar and engine bay strut bar for handling and trying to minimize the engine vibration.

Very cool, thanks for the update.
I wouldn't want an escort either but, I appreciate a smooth ride.
