Default Free shocks

I recently installed new Bilsteins on my 2018 KR Scab 4x4 with the FX4 suspension. If anyone in the Cape Cod area wants my old shocks, u are welcome to them. Only have about 6000 miles on them. I'm located in Eastham so I'm about 40 miles from the Cape Cod canal.

Not sure what Ford spends on them has to do with anything. They are better than worn out shocks I know that much, and he's giving them away which is a great deal. Next time just don't comment if you have nothing to say.

i disagree... the 2018 shoks are a good replacement for the 2015-2017's... my 2018 OEM shocks ride way better than my 2015... believe me, i own both trucks... someone may want to put these on their 2015-17's

I may be on the cape at some point this fall. Mind if I reach out in a few weeks to see if you still have them?

I figured it out once, now I always keep my OEM stuff, never know what might come up. Nice offer though.

I have a 2017 RWD and another member here with a 2018 4x4 and I got together and confirmed they were the SAME EXACT part #. The leaf spring had to be the deciding factor on ride. Very nice of you to offer them for free. We don't see that enough in todays world!

Jon, you're saying the rear shocks on 4X4 and RWD are the same PN?

Yes, I was going to buy some from a another member until he posted his part #, which was the same as what was on mine.
