I replaced the six year old KYB Excel-G shocks with Gabriel Max Control. The reviews say they are firm shocks. They are firmer than the KYB when they were new, but not too firm . Perfect for my liking. They really handle speed bumps well and almost completely eliminate sway when driving on mountain roads. Also, the truck stays level when coming to a stop. No nosedive.
Reviews of spare parts for Ford
Put a set on my 2017 Ford Explorer Limited up sized slightly 255/55/20 . Had for 2 weeks and have been very pleased with the performance. We have had heavy rain, Snow and ice and they have been very predictable.
I've had the hybrids for 3 1/2 years now on my 2019. I can't even express the difference at night. Completely worth the money.
New plugs and a fuel filter are all cheap and easy maintenance items that no ones done.
I cleaned mine on my 2007 cvpi, definitely a noticeable improvement, although not sure on mpg. Mine was pretty black with 110k miles and 2500 hrs.
My 2018 Fusion Hybrid SE had a blend door problem and a bad blower motor. After market blower and thermostat, they said to change both, blower motor kept cutting of so I had to use a Ford thermostat. The after market blower seems to be fine now with the OEM thermostat.
Petronas is a pure virgin oil.
Great for UAE road and climate.
I personally use Petronas oil or petromin oil.
Great performance and good mileage getting.
I ran them on my ST. They handle like a 300tw tire. They became greasy on a really hot track day.
The "high performance" Perelli's that came with my Mustang GT became useless lumps of rock hard rubber at any temperature below 40F, despite being all-seasons. It was bad enough to be a significant driving hazard even on completely dry tarmac. Quickly switched out for Michelins.
Pirelli PZeros came stock on my Mustang GT and they were awful. They used to break loose all the time, I thought about trading the car in the first year because it handled like shit. Then I found a screaming deal on a set of Michelin Pilot Sports so I swapped them at 9000 miles. Night and day difference, it’s like a different car now.
