Possibly it's just me but didnt Ford have a bunch of automotive engineers design your Ford's suspension and you are going to change/update those decisions based on....? In the words of John Wayne..."that's courage."
I was basing it on the possibility that the rear suspension could be worn out (which may or may not be true). I've towed this TT to the east coast twice and once out to Yellowstone and a bunch of other places in the midwest. I have 135,000 miles on the TV. Maybe replacing the shocks with new OEM would be optimal for comfort but perhaps not necessarily optimal for towing.
The monroe shock I referenced is what my local mechanic said that they would use when I asked him for my options (which were very limited). There are other brands out there, but I have had trouble finding much information on what would be best for dealing with towing. That is why I am asking for advice from this RV towing forum rather than a more generalist Ford truck forum.
I am looking to make towing our TT as safe an experience as possible for my family. Thanks!
