Handling and Ride Questions for the E350 22' Owners
Posted: Fri May 06, 2022 9:00 am
Hello all,
I have some specific questions for those that have or have had the E350 22' rear door model. I only have about 60 miles behind the wheel and that was on a very calm day driving home. I'm getting ready to do some front suspension and steering work that is needed. Ball joints, tie rods and bushings etc.
I know only time behind the wheel will sort it out, but hearing about others experiences regarding ride, handling and tire wear might help to not chase problems that don't exist. Like a sway bar that is not needed.
>How does the 22' handle in stock form?
>And if you have made any upgrades as far as a larger sway bar, adding a rear sway bar, adding more
caster etc. what effect did it have?
>If needed has anyone tried a stock sway bar from an E450 front or front and rear?
>Also rubber vs urethane bushings and of course shocks.
Hopefully someone will have some insight on the 22'ers.
Enjoying the rain today.
