My '00 EB Expedition is sagging in the rear and looks like the compressor/air springs are done. Has anyone done the coil conversion on this or something similar? Looking for tips/suggestions. Thanks

$1,800. wow. In the VW world all the guys pay that kind of money to go air. Opposite in truck world.

It is fairly easy. I have done a few on Rovers and Fords.
Here are some links that might help:

The Rovers had an electrical patch to turn off the suspension messages. Not sure if the Expedition needs it or if it is available.
